Kanye West, the maestro of music, wielded his prowess to rule the world. Despite subjecting his fans to the rollercoaster of delayed releases and stirring controversies with his infamous slang, he momentarily faced a downturn. However, emerging from the shadows, Ye made a triumphant return. Finally, causing the charts under ‘Vultures 1’ to soar to celestial heights. The latest jewel in his crown is ‘Carnival’, which recently ascended to the throne of the Billboard Hot 100, marking West’s first No. 1 hit in the United States in over a decade.

As the euphoria of Ye’s triumph echoes through the musical landscape, he resurfaced on Instagram with a fresh wave of controversial celebrations.

Kanye West’s celebration of ‘Carnival’ reaching No. 1 on the charts took an explosive turn on Instagram. Ye spared no one in his now changed candid outburst in the caption of ‘Carnival’s’, dishing out a series of “f**k yous”. These were particularly aimed towards Drake, Adidas, the Daily Mail tabloid, and certain fashion houses. Amidst the verbal fireworks, he expressed gratitude to collaborators like Ty Dolla $ign and Playboi Carti and unwavering supporters who stood by him through thick and thin.

The vitriol in Ye’s words extended to Drake’s association with Lil Durk, a controversial “White Lives Matter” T-shirt incident. Also, his frustration with individuals from fashion houses and Christians whom he accused of complicity in having his kids taken out of his control. Particularly notable was his ire towards Adidas, casting a wide net to encompass anyone associated with the brand. In his passionate Instagram post, later modified to a cryptic “no caption,” Ye let loose a torrent of unfiltered emotions.
