Make it make sense! Fans of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, are trying to help the rapper regain his billionaire status amid reports that he stormed out of his son’s soccer game following a feud. It’s rumored he got into it with another parent. Get those deets, plus the drama between Ye and former NBA player Stephen Jackson over George Floyd inside…
Kanye West lost his billionaire status after Adidas decided to end their partnership. Now, his fans are trying to help him regain his financial status.
According to AllHipHop, fans created a GoFundMe in an attempt to help the embattled rapper become “a billionaire again.” As you know, companies have distanced themselves from the Grammy-winning rapper after he doubled down on a series of anti-Semitic comments.
”Make Kanye West a billionaire again,” the title read, including a $1 billion goal. That specific fundraiser was taken down, but several copycats have popped up in its place. Also, tons of people have created their GoFundMe pages, encouraging folks to make them billionaires instead of Ye:
The irony. Hasn’t Ye been ranting about Jews being rich and powerful? It’s not like he’s totally broke and living in a cardboard box under the freeway. According to Forbes, he’s still worth $400 million.
The GoFundMe pages come on the heels of Ye storming out of his son’s soccer game, reportedly following a feud with another parent.
Video footage taken Saturday (obtained by TMZ) shows the 45-year-old dad-of-four having an animated conversation with a woman before storming off the field. You can also see his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian, sitting in a lawn chair about 30 feet away, surrounded by security. It’s unclear what upset Ye, but it’s clear he was pissed. Peep the clip below:

Over the last month or so, Ye has been receiving backlash for his anti-Semitic remarks as well as comments he made about George Floyd. You’ll recall, Ye made FALSE claims that George died from a fentanyl overdose and not because a police officer (former police officer Derek Chauvin) kneeled on his neck for nearly nine minutes on the "Drink Champs" podcast. Following his comments, it was reported the family of George Floyd had plans to file a $250 million lawsuit against the Chi-town rapper.
Over the weekend, Ye went on a rant, sharing a photo of Floyd’s daughter’s mother, Roxie Washington, with claims that she was “either being controlled” or “being greedy” for suing him when he did more than anyone for her and Floyd’s family. Not only that, he got petty, making fun of the hat she was wearing in the picture. Check out a post from an IG account that’s chronicling all of Ye’s posts (since he keeps deleting them):
In the caption, he wrote:
“Now for Roxie Washington and Roxie Washington ALONE.
I gave 2 million dollars out of my pocket for the family. To help George’s daughter…Your daughter!
I can guarantee that most of those that came for me after my comments didn’t do what I did! Even those with millions of dollars in the bank!
How much did BLM give????
Many gave words. I ACTED.
Now because of words you want to sue me for 250 million dollars…
….when I’m going through an Economic lynching. A Digital Lynching. A Social Credit Score bankrupting.
You’re either being controlled or you’re being greedy…
But You better get you some business…
4 GOD get mad
This is how you try someone who was there for your family???? You will never get money from no one else.
GOD don’t like ugly…
Look at yo motherfucking hat.
Yo hat ugly…You know how I feel about an ugly ass hat.
To the Floyd family:
I apologized to you and the black community for my comments on Drink Champs. Humbly…
Now Come get Roxie before she mess up all y’all money.
The Bible is the umbilical chord…Stay Connected.”
It's odd. He went on his rant against Roxie a day after apologizing for the comments he said about George Floyd.
"God is showing me by what Adidas is doing and what the media is doing...I know what it feels like to have a knee on my neck now," he said. Peep the clip below:

Former NBA baller Stephen Jackson, who was friends with George Floyd, took to social media to call Ye out for coming at Floyd’s family.
“First off, Roxanne could care less what you think about her hat. That’s number one,” Stephen said in the clip. “We ain’t gon’ talk about that bullshit you be wearing and marking it up for your own people to pay for. But we ain’t gon’ talk about that. You say stupid shit, you get stupid prizes.
“Nobody asked you to say nothing about George Floyd, but you decided to say that on your own, so you gon’ pay the consequences. Roxanne was minding her business, Gianna was minding her business. Oh, and also, Roxanne and Gianna and the family is two different people. She don’t stand with the family and the family don’t stand with her. They had different lawyers during the whole court process.”
“Kanye delusional,” he said. “You didn’t give Gianna $2 million. She got $250,000 that they broken down through the families that Roxanne is giving back to you.”

After the video went viral, Ye hopped on Parler (which he is set to acquire) to react.
“My name is Ye Stephen I gave 2 million to the family, then Roxie threatened to sue me because I gave a different perspective I been going light actually I got suspended from instagram for 30 days for my truth I’m a digital prisoner right now but If you keep talking ima keep talking if you shut the f*ck up I’ll leave it alone,” Kanye wrote.
By the way, Ye has been suspended from Instagram for 30 days again. He shared a screenshot of an Instagram notification about the suspension on his Parler account. A Meta spokesperson confirmed that the company deleted content from Ye’s account for violating its policies and placed a restriction on the account.
This isn't the first time Stephen checked Ye for his George Floyd comments. This wasn’t the first time Stephen Jackson called out Kanye West. He called him out right after the Drink Champs episode was released as well.
Several other companies have cut ties with Ye, including Balenciaga, VOGUE, JPMorgan Chase, GAP, Creative Arts Agency, and Foot Locker have also cut ties with Ye. He was also ditched by an English Premier League team. Premier League club Bournemouth have decided to stop using Kanye’s “Power” track as their walk-out music. Also, Apple Music has reportedly pulled Ye’s “Essentials” playlist from its platform. Billboard reports that the streaming giant decided to yank the playlist after the rap veteran made offensive comments online and, again, in interviews.
