Kanye West is back on social media, and you already know it’s about to get weird. The 47-year-old rap mogul-slash-controversy-magnet returned to X (formerly known as Twitter but still known as a mess) to remind us all that he’s rich, possibly still feuding with Taylor Swift, and forever in a complicated bromance with Donald Trump.
“I’m Rich Again, Y’all!”
In a bold move that surprised absolutely no one, Kanye announced that his net worth in 2025 was a cool $2.77 billion. That’s right—billion with a “B.” Never mind that his fortune took a nosedive after that whole “losing partnerships with major brands because of offensive comments” situation in 2022. According to Ye, the money is back, baby!
And what better way to celebrate than with a social media rant?
“Trump’s back in office. Ye’s back a billionaire. The world might just be ok,” he posted, possibly while standing in front of a mirror dramatically nodding at his reflection.
In another post, he added, “D-mn. Just warming up. I’m rich. I can say whatever the f-ck I want. I do this for the broke me. Shout out to broke me, this one’s for you.”
Inspiring words from a man who once compared himself to Walt Disney, Steve Jobs, and, inexplicably, a water bottle.
Taylor Swift Stays Rent-Free in Kanye’s Mind
Kanye also took a moment to acknowledge the one person who haunts his every waking thought: Taylor Swift.
Despite their years of feuding, Kanye shared that she is the only person he follows on Instagram. Let that sink in. Out of everyone in the world, the billionaire artist and fashion designer is glued to Taylor’s updates. Is it admiration? Is it obsession? Did he simply forget how to follow more than one person? The world may never know.
Kanye & Trump: A Soap Opera for the Ages
Of course, no Ye social media meltdown would be complete without a Trump mention. He fired off, “Trump 4 life,” which could be a political statement or an official announcement of his next album title. Who’s to say?
He also reminded everyone of his OG Trump loyalty, writing, “I risked my life to wear a red hat then he turned it black.”
This seems to be a reference to that time he wore a MAGA hat, but also… what does it mean? Did the hat physically change colors? Is this a metaphor? Is Kanye speaking in riddles now? The people demand answers.
A Love-Hate Saga
Despite years of public Trump support, their relationship hasn’t always been sunshine and campaign slogans. Back in 2022, Donald referred to Kanye as a “seriously troubled man.”
Kanye, never one to back down from drama, responded by calling Trump a “known liar.” Honestly, their friendship has more twists and turns than a Real Housewives reunion.
Why Is This Happening?
What sparked this latest Kanye eruption? Was it a late-night Google search of his own name? A sudden wave of nostalgia for his 2016 self? Or just a billionaire doing what billionaires do best—tweeting whatever pops into their heads?
Whatever the reason, Kanye West is back online, and that can only mean one thing: buckle up, because things are about to get weird.
