Kanye West has always been a controversial figure. Still, just when we thought we saw it all, the admittedly brilliant rapper went way off the deep end several months ago, making repeated antisemitic statements, denying the Holocaust, hanging out with alleged white supremacists, and more. It got to the point where many believe the rapper ended his career, with him receiving widespread condemnation and losing many of his most valuable brand partnerships overnight.
In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we dig into Kanye’s career, including his very public feuds with the likes of Taylor Swift and more, and try to examine how the formerly acclaimed superstar got to this point. This episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity is co-written by Taylor James Johnson and Matthew Plale and narrated, edited, and produced by Taylor James Johnson.
