On Friday, February 7, 2025, controversial American rapper Kanye West revealed that he no longer listens to rap music, citing a lack of meaningful content in the genre.
In a bold statement shared on his X handle, the billionaire mogul expressed that today’s rap music offers no information or insight that would contribute to his personal or financial growth.
“I don’t listen to rap. I don’t know who the fck is rapping anymore. Yuno Miles is likely my favourite artist,” West wrote. “I’m a 47-year-old billionaire, why the fck would u listen to rap? There’s not one piece of information in rap that benefits my agendas or helps me get money.”
West’s remarks have sparked debate about the evolution of rap and its place in the lives of successful figures like him.
