Kanye West might change his name to Christian Genius Billionaire Kanye West

Jade Hayden

Just so everyone’s aware.

Kanye West has expressed interest in changing his name to Christian Genius Billionaire Kanye West.

The rapper said recently that he wanted everybody to know exactly what he’s about these days – most notably Christianity, being a genius, and having a lot of money.

Fair play to him.

“People say it’s crass to call yourself a billionaire, but I might legally change my name to Christian Genius Billionaire Kanye West for a year until y’all understand exactly what it is,” he said during his surprise appearance at this week’s Fast Company Innovation festival in New York.

“It will be on the license plate.”

Sounds good.

Page Six reports that Kanye or, as he may very well soon be known as, Christian Genius Billionaire Kanye, also chatted a bit about his upcoming plans to run for president – a mention of which caused the crowd to have a bit of a laugh.

“What y’all laughing at?” he said. “We would create so many jobs! I’m not going to run, I’m going to walk.”

“When you see headlines saying Kanye’s crazy — one in three African Americans are in jail and all the celebrities are in jail also because they can’t say nothing, they got no opinion, they’re so scared!”

Anyone would be a better shout than Trump though, in fairness to him.

Kanye 2024, etc.
