Kanye West not only legally changed his name to Ye this week, but he’s also rocking a new haircut.
Ye — who prides himself on being ahead of the curve when it comes to trends — officially unveiled the new patchy do via Instagram on Monday (October 18) that shows off the back of his head and a Saint necklace. The post collected over 1.7 million likes and 73,000 comments, attracting attention from Chris Brown and Royce Da 5’9 along the way.
Chris Brown, who’s voiced his displeasure with the eccentric billionaire in recent months, couldn’t help himself from dragging Ye on his Instagram Stories.
“He asked the barbour for the fucked up worldwide fade,” he wrote alongside the photo. “N-gga wanna make ‘what the fuck’ in style. He got the punishment haircut.” In another post, Brown shared a meme of Stevie Wonder shaving Ye’s head with the caption, “N-gga just wanted a lineup.”
Royce Da 5’9 also weighed in and shared a simple re-post of Kanye’s haircut with the caption, “If Ye makes this the new wave, I’m back outside with a haircut again…”
Kanye was first spotted with the new do as he ordered at a McDonald’s in Sweden. Since then, he’s continued to wear strange masks wherever he goes. Most recently, TMZ posted a photo of the Donda artist sporting a creepy, white face mask as he walked around New York City — and not like Michael Myers white — more like Caucasian.
Chris Brown Calls Kanye West A 'Hoe' Following 'Donda' Omission
Of course, he got plenty of stares as he strolled the Big Apple streets — not unlike earlier this month when he was spotted at John F. Kennedy International Airport going through TSA like he wasn’t a famous billionaire.
Meanwhile, it’s entirely possible Chris Brown is still salty about his exclusion from Donda. On August 29, the 32-year-old singer posted (and then deleted) an Instagram Story with the caption, “Kanye a whole hoe.” He followed up with another Instagram Story that read, “Nah he tweakin.” That has since become a popular catchphrase and, in fact, was used in Royce’s comment section about Ye’s haircut.
just call it what it is: ‘contemporary’ which is as gay as it gets. he just releases all his bad inventions huh? shout-out to Khanye!
Chris Brown needs to look at all the trash hair he’s had before he takes shots at others. Kanye’s hair is terrible for sure, but Chris Brown has been a weirdo with his hair for like 15 years. He also needs to show Ye more love considering his past indiscretions are far worse than Ye’s. He beat the shit out of Rihanna, who Kanye loves as his “baby sister”, and has collaborated with Ye a few times since. People have short memories these days.
You Still Living In The Past Chris Learned From His Mistakes And Gotten A Second Chance. You Yourself Can Obviously See That’s A Shitty Haircut Kanye Has.
Royce still doing everything but replying to Lupe or Mickey Factz
Imagine you want to encourage your baby girl’s creativity, so not only do you let her cut your hair but you show it off proudly; only to have a cokehead and other miserable f—ks acting like they got room to talk
We spend so much time and money on our hair maybe the WTF style will rub off. Then we’ll realize how stupid fashion, jewelry and haircare is and we can move onto more important things in life.
Being rich and famous doesn’t make make an obvious crap haircut cool. Only to people that put rich and famous people over them.
Facts! Klownye be trying too hard. He thinks he is pushing boundries and the envelope and thinks everything he does is a creative artistic event. This is just str8 up silly and he looks stupid. Klownye stand will defend him and say he a billionaire….so what so is Bill Gates and many others. Epstein was rich too! From making terrible music to creating ridiculous clothing that looks like something people would wear on a star wars set to creating the worlds ugliest basketball shoes. His clothes stink, haircut stinks, music stinks just like his breath. He is an self absorbed narcissistic egomaniac who is the biggest DIVA in music.
At least he didn’t ever bite Rihanna.
Kanye believes he’s such a genius that everybody should follow in his madness!! He truly thinks he’s some kind of god.. smh!!
Chris, didn’t you almost come to blows w your own mother? Break her car window? Beat the piss out of Rihanna? Trash your GMA dressing room? Ain’t you hooked on Whippits and Coke? Sthu and worry about keeping those Piru payments up before you have another “burglary”
This kid has a shoe tattooed on his face.
CB is no Angel but that doesn’t mean he can’t poke fun and this dumb ass haircut. What the hell is Kanyé thinking?! That’s because he’s rich it makes this haircut cool?!
As ridiculous as Kanye’s haircut is, this effeminate clown shouldn’t be criticizing anybody’s hair lol
