Ye, the artist previously known as Kanye West, has raised more than a few eyebrows after wearing what appears to be a klan-esque black mask during a listening party for his album “Vultures.”
The 46-year-old rapper previewed his upcoming collaborative album with Ty Dollar Sign during Miami’s Art Basel on Monday night at an event labeled as the “Vultures Rave” and took the stage several times donned in an all black ensemble that was topped with a pointy black hood that is eerily reminiscent of the head gear worn by the white supremacist terrorist group.
This isn’t the first time the “Flashing Lights” rapper has taken his fashion cues from the Ku Klux Klan.
As fans may recall, the music video for the 2013 Def Jam Recordings track “Black Skinhead,” written as “BLKK SKKKN HEAD” on YouTube, features a trio of the startling black hoods as the opening visual.
As the video continues, which was directed by Nick Knight, the unholy trinity of hoods are magnified and become the backdrop upon which an AI version of Ye delivers the entirety of the song.
