The entire past weekend, the rapper complained on his Twitter about multimillion-dollar debts and asked for financial assistance from well-known businessmen.
On Saturday and Sunday, Kanye posted a series of posts on the social network complaining that the latest collection of clothes ruined him. West said he now owes banks about $ 53 million: “Brothers, I owe $ 53 million [dollars]. Pray for us [with wife Kim Kardashian]."
The rapper urged his fans to purchase a subscription to the Tidal streaming service, where his new album is being released. In addition, Kanye approached Mark Zuckerberg directly and asked him to invest a billion dollars in his projects, adding that he is "the greatest artist of all time." The billionaire did not respond to this request, then West wrote an appeal to Google co-founder Larry Page: "Hey, Larry Page, I'm asking you too."
The rapper responded to angry comments from netizens: “Yes, I am a rich man and can buy furs and houses for my family. But I need access to more money in order to bring more great ideas into this world … Besides, those who have money know the first rule - to use the money of others. " For the entire tirade, his fellow rapper Rhymefest tweeted, "Kanye needs spiritual support in the form of therapy."
