Kanye West issues impassioned letter to music industry demanding they respect his name change to 'Ye'

'Ye is a black man in America who wants the right to full self-determination just like everyone else,' wrote his chief of staff Milo Yiannopoulos in a letter to the music industry.

'Your platform has been identified as one of the most visible places this change may occur, and we passionately hope you will be able to fully and properly reflect the new name and identity of such an enormously influential and historic figure.' The letter comes after it emerged Kanye is being summoned to spend time with his wife Bianca Censori's father in Australia, according to sources, who claim the architect is 'hesitant' to face her dad's wrath over her near-naked outfits and controversial relationship with the rapper. Back in December, Leo and Alexandra were said to have been fearful that their daughter was simply a rebound in the wake of Kanye's divorce from Kim Kardashian - which was finalized in November 2022, less than one month before he married Bianca.
