Rapper Kanye West is back in the spotlight, this time for sharing a cryptic voice note on social media.
Early Saturday, December 28, the rapper-producer posted a short audio clip to his Instagram story, puzzling fans and followers with its vague content. The recording, seemingly of his voice, has left many wondering about its meaning.
While the message remains unexplained, it follows a storm of criticism over Kanye’s latest Yeezy clothing line, which launched on December 26.
The collection, priced at $20 per item, includes T-shirts, hoodies, and jackets featuring controversial symbols. One logo, resembling the Wolfsangel, a symbol tied to Nazi Germany and now associated with neo-Nazi groups, has drawn sharp backlash online.
Social media users have been vocal in their condemnation, accusing Kanye of promoting harmful ideologies. Even some of his most devoted fans have expressed disappointment, with fan pages hinting at abandoning their support. Neither Kanye nor the Yeezy brand has addressed the accusations or explained the use of the symbol.
