Kanye West might struggle with the socially acceptable tag, but there is no doubt that the rapper is a creative genius and possesses incredible talent. The 'Flashing Lights' hitmaker is perhaps one of the most creative minds in the world today. Over the years, fans have witnessed Ye reach the highs in his career whilst hitting the lows in his personal life. The controversy alongside the massive success that surrounds West is what makes him an intriguing individual.
<h2>Kanye West Net Worth 2023</h2>
People are no strangers to the fact that Kanye West was one of the first rappers to become a billionaire in Hollywood. However, owing to his antisemitic comments, he lost his billionaire status. Surprising as it sounds, the fallout with the German brand Adidas cost Ye big time since it took more than 50 percent of his worth. As reported by Forbes, following the termination of his brand deals, West is currently worth $400 million.

A major portion of his net worth comes from real estate, his music catalog, and cash. Meanwhile, West's 5% stake in his ex-wife Kim Kardashian's brand SKIMS also contributes to his wealth. Throughout his incredibly successful music career, Ye has sold over 160 million records. While his earnings from music are not yet known, his GOOD music label is worth $90 million.
<h2>Kanye West's early life</h2>
Kanye West was born on June 8, 1977, in Atlanta, Georgia. He spent his early years in South Side Chicago, living with his mother Donda West. The Grammy-winning award singer was raised in a middle-class family and attended Polaris High School to pursue his education. Ye graduated from Polaris High School before moving to Chicago State University to study art for a year. However, he did not pursue his degree any further as he dropped out of CSU. The rapper revealed that he dropped out of college, as he felt he was learning more from life than college.

Many of the fans might not know, but prior to attending Chicago State University, West went to the American Academy of Art. In 2015, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago awarded Ye with an honorary doctorate. However, as per reports by XXL Magazine, the institute scrapped West of his doctorate following his antisemitic comments.
<h2>Kanye West’s Musical Career</h2>
Kanye West is perhaps one of the most successful musicians on the planet. People are no strangers to the legacy Ye has left behind with his incredible creativity and flawless lyricism. Early in his music career, the rapper worked as a producer. He even contributed to Jermaine Dupri's album 'Life in 1472'. West further established himself as a producer, raising his coinage with his work on Jay-Z's album 'The Blueprint'.

While Ye was surely receiving much praise for his production skills, he found it difficult to focus on his rap career. He even had a terrible accident that brought a major change within him. It was the accident that inspired him to record his own album. Later on, in 2004, he went on to release his debut album 'College Dropout'.

Back in 2013, the rapper revealed that the Yeezus Tour will mark his first solo tour in five years. The Yeezus tour was the concert tour by the rapper to support his sixth solo studio album. Alongside West were Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, and even Pusha-T, who served as the opening artists for the tour. Initially in his career, Kanye West started off as a rapper, with his first album gaining massive success both commercially and critically.

Soon after his first album took the world by storm, Ye founded his music label GOOD Music. Following that, the Heartless star started experimenting with a variety of genres, including R&amp;B, pop art, and pop gospel as well.
<h2>Kanye West’s Involvement in Other Sectors</h2>
While it was music that brought Kanye West into the limelight, the rapper later went on to experiment in a plethora of fields. As reported by L'officiel USA, Ye used to work as an intern at Fendi, where he worked alongside Virgil Abloh. West's popular brand Yeezy first made its way to the world in 2007, when the rapper collaborated with Nike. However, because of continuous delays in the release of shoes and dissatisfaction with his royalties, Ye decided to end its partnership with the brand.

In 2013, West decided to sign a deal with Adidas. However, it was in 2015 that the brand officially announced its brand Yeezy. The partnership went on to become one of the most successful deals for both West and Adidas. Meanwhile, Ye even collaborated with a number of luxury brands, such as Louis Vuitton and Balenciaga.

It might come as a surprise, but Kanye West even tried his luck in acting. The 'All Falls Down' star made a handful number of appearances in films like State Property 2, The Love Guru and We Were Once A Fairytale. While the masses might hate West for his controversial statements, he is a huge philanthropist. The rapper founded his Kanye West Youth Foundation as well to help the disadvantaged excel in school arts and music. Furthermore, the rapper is also a successful businessman. Apart from Yeezy, Ye has ventured into various brands like KW Foods, GOOD Music, Yeezy Home, and KKW Beauty as well.

People are no strangers to West's political shenanigans as well. Time and again, the rapper has dabbled in politics. The rapper announced his presidential campaign in 2020 but unfortunately lost by a huge margin. And not long ago, he even revealed that he would be participating in the 2024 elections as well.
<h2>Kanye West’s Relationship and Family</h2>
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were among one of the most powerful couples in Hollywood. The duo tied the knot in 2014 in Italy. Interestingly,<a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-kim-kardashian-drops-an-important-advice-for-kourtney-she-learned-from-her-marriage-with-kanye-west/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Kim even gave her sister Kourtney some peculiar advice</a> before her wedding. During their relationship, Kim and Ye gave the masses some major couple goals. Furthermore, both Ye and Kardashian raised a lovely family with four kids. However, the duo called it quits in 2021.

[caption id="attachment_99561" align="alignnone" width="2560"]<img class="size-full wp-image-99561" src="https://www.staging.netflixjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/GettyImages-1076421774-scaled.jpg" alt="Back When Kim Kardashian Attended a Late Night Memorial Service for Kobe Bryant Held by Kanye West" width="2560" height="1707" /> NEW YORK, NEW YORK - DECEMBER 02: Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West attend the the Versace fall 2019 fashion show at the American Stock Exchange Building in lower Manhattan on December 02, 2018 in New York City.

The rapper has four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, North West, Psalm West, Chicago West, and Saint West. Meanwhile, the rapper does not have any siblings.
<h2>Kanye West’s Personal Life</h2>
Ye is extremely vocal about his likes and dislikes. Likewise, the 'Flashing Lights' hitmaker has spoken about his religious beliefs on multiple occasions. As per reports by Premier Christian News, West officially confirmed his Christian faith.

[caption id="attachment_99559" align="alignnone" width="2560"]<img class="size-full wp-image-99559" src="https://www.staging.netflixjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/GettyImages-1059657274-scaled.jpg" alt="Kanye West May Not Be a Billionaire but His Nike Air Yeezy 1 ‘Prototype’ Are Made for the Rich" width="2560" height="1867" /> View of American rapper and producer Kanye West, gesturing with his hands, in the White House's Oval Office, Washington DC, October 11, 2018.

The rapper has also been very active in politics as well. In 2016, West was a keen supporter of Donald Trump. However, later Ye announced that he would be contesting in the presidential elections of 2020. Even after losing terribly in the past, West confirmed how he would be contesting in the 2024 elections as well.

While he might be an ambitious individual, he surely has a number of issues in life. It is no secret that Kanye West has severe mental health issues as well. His troubled mental health has always been a topic of contention among the masses. The rapper even revealed that he suffers from bipolar disorder and has often spoken about it on various occasions.
<h2>Musical Influence of Kanye West</h2>
Undoubtedly, West is one of the most influential musicians there is in the industry today. Throughout his career in the rap industry, Ye has influenced a generation of musicians with his incredible creativity and rap skills. Even though the rapper is not releasing any new songs now, <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/music-news-after-hey-there-delilah-kanye-west-featured-in-yet-another-ai-production-this-time-by-hit-boy-on-his-own-beats/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AI recently featured Kanye West's voice in its latest production</a>. While the rapper gave countless hits and memorable songs, his best era has to be between 2007-14. West released three massive albums, 'Graduation', '808s and Heartbreak', and 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' during the period.

While one was a collaborative clunker, the latter albums received critical praise and furious public speculation. Most importantly, the period serves as a microcosm of West's psyche and career as a whole. Meanwhile, his influence on music is massive. The rapper played a major role in popularising the hip-hop genre, garnering a massive fan following around the world. Surprising as it sounds,<a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/music-news-its-just-crazy-ghanian-blogger-once-paid-4000-to-see-kanye-west-in-coachella-festival-only-for-the-rapper-to-back-out/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> a Ghanaian blogger once paid $4000 to see the rapper perform at Coachella</a>.
