Saturday Night Live‘s Michael Che is under fire for a joke aimed at Kanye West and Caitlyn Jenner.  During the latest installment of the show’s “Weekend Update” segment, Che took on Kanye’s album Jesus Is King. While riffing on the project, the comedian compared West’s new phase of life to Caitlyn Jenner. “I mean, he used to be one […]

Donald Trump Jr. took to Twitter to praise Kanye West‘s newly released ninth studio album Jesus Is King. “Kanye West is cracking the culture code,” he wrote. “@kanyewest’s new album #JesusIsKing is the epitome of fearless creativity and ‘dangerous, unapproved’ ideas. Leftists always try to silence those who are speaking truth. They’re waging a war on our family and […]

Fans spent the early hours of Friday morning wondering what Kanye West was doing at the Oculus Plaza in Lower Manhattan—he still had an album to release. Jesus Is King eventually came later that day, and the Oculus showing was a performance for the Friday edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live.  West performed Jesus Is King‘s “Closed On Sunday” with a […]

Following the release of Kanye West’s gospel-oriented album Jesus Is King, it was revealed that he’ll be on tour imminently. Despite the release of his divisive eighth studio album Ye last year, Kanye hasn’t hit the road in support of a record in three years. Now a source close to Yeezy and Kim Kardashian tells People magazine he’s already working on a tour schedule. “Kanye […]

Over the years, it has become more difficult to dismiss the distractions surrounding Kanye West in favor of focusing exclusively on his music. This is, in part, because his actions are upsetting, but also because the music he’s released in the past half-decade hasn’t lived up to the rest of his catalog.  The Life of […]

Kanye West and Jerry Falwell Jr.—one of Donald Trump’s most notable evangelical supporters—have reportedly become friends. Falwell recently told Slate that Kanye called him “out of the blue” in September to ask if he could host a big church service at Liberty University, where Falwell is the president. Located in Lynchburg, Virginia, Liberty is a […]

It appears Kanye West will reclaim his throne at the top of charts.  According to early projections reported by HitsDailyDouble, Ye’s Jesus Is King album will rake in between 225,000-275,000 units within its first week; 60,000-85,000 of those units will come from traditional sales. If these figures are correct, Jesus Is King will easily lead the Billboard 200 chart, and secure Kanye’s ninth No. […]

Kanye West has compared himself to several iconic people, including Steve Jobs and Walt Disney. Jesus Is King director Nick Knight offered another comparison in a recent interview published on his fashion website, SHOWstudio. “Working with Kanye is very similar in many ways to how I worked with Alexander McQueen, understanding his world and his desires,” Knight explained. “Both men […]

Kanye West finally delivered his long-awaited album Jesus Is King on Friday, and the hot takes are already pouring in. Some fans have been able to embrace the shift to gospel-infused rap, while others have been quick to label it as a disappointing entry in West’s otherwise stellar discography. Regardless of where they stand, however, most fans […]

After a few false starts, Kanye West’s new album, Jesus Is King, has arrived. Consequence stayed up all night (and even skipped dinner!) to make sure the album finally hit streaming services at noon on Friday.  Like the title suggests, the lyrics on Jesus Is King are extremely religious, reflecting Kanye’s re-commitment to Christianity. There is no […]
