Kanye West has taken a year off from music to focus on his other business ventures and his mental health, Media Take Out has learned.
The billionaire ex-husband of Kim Kardashian is re-focusing from music to his Yeezy clothing brand and Donda Sports. Kanye clearly has a lot to keep him busy these days and is also in the midst of overseeing the construction of his hew home which is being built in Malibu.
And Kanye was recently seen in Malibu. The legendary artist was seen sitting on the side of the road, all alone and looking very bizarre. Ye had on a massive puffy jacket in 90 degree heat and he was checking his phone with a solemn look on his face. Huh?
Despite Ye’s break from music, he is expected to perform at Rolling Loud in Miami this year. The festival is two weeks from now and Kanye will be taking to the stage as the headliner on the first night. We hope he gets it together by then.
One of the world’s best-selling music artists, with over 160 million records sold, West has won 24 Grammy Awards, the joint tenth-most of all time, and the joint-most Grammy awards of any rapper along with Jay-Z.
Among his other awards are the Billboard Artist Achievement Award, a joint-record three Brit Awards for Best International Male Solo Artist and the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.[ Six of West’s albums were included on Rolling Stone’s 2020 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list with the same publication naming him one of the 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time.
He holds the joint record (with Bob Dylan) for most albums (4) topping the annual Pazz & Jop critic poll, and has the 5th most appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 (133 entries). Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2005 and 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth at $2 billion as of 2022, making him the wealthiest musician in the world
