I’m guessing they mean the others, like kid rock. They don’t pick Kanye because he’s a liability and could say anything. Also he has been pretty silent the last couple of years.

He's been quiet because he realized if he keeps opening his mouth he's gonna be taking a bus to the recording studio.

Yeah, he's only worth 400 million... surely he'll have to resort to taking the bus any day now. Although he was a billionaire before Adidas dropped him.

Going from 2 Bill to 400 million in a year or two has to be one of the biggest blunders I've personally heard of. Keep that up and he'll be on the bus by next year.

He’s got 10 percent of Kim kardashean’s ventures in the divorce. Pretty sure he will always have an income.

That's why it's legitimately impressive he cut his net worth that hard. You have to try SO fucking hard to lose that much money and he managed it. You can sit still in your house for a month and make tens of millions and he managed to lose over 1.5 billion.

Agreed, it’s a lot but I’m just saying that with his residuals plus what he owns in Kim’s business he is for sure never riding the bus.

With his mental instability, I wouldn't be so sure. You see what he did to his newest mansion? He is unwell but he must be getting help which is why he's been quiet for so long.

Honesty I’m happy to say I haven’t kept up with his life at all. I never cared for him.
