In the last few weeks, Kanye West has reignited his fans’ curiosity with an impromptu trip to Saudi Arabia. When the rap mogul first appeared in the historic Middle Eastern town of Al-‘Ula, it was not clear if he was there to vacation or work. Subsequently, images of a studio set-up in the desert appeared online, putting those queries to rest. Some of his fans even spotted him around town, too. However, it was his latest encounter with a young fan that was the most intriguing. 

The latest image of the ‘Donda’ rapper alongside a mystery toddler seems to be going viral. But who exactly is the toddler?

The buzz around Ebo the baby

For those who stay familiar with the online domain of social media, Ebo has become as much of a sensation as the man he was pictured next to. Ever since Kanye West was captured smiling next to the perplexed-looking infant, the identity of the toddler has puzzled many. So far, it has only been revealed that Ebo is the child of a fan who wanted a photo of West with the youngin. 

While some netizens did put forth some amusing guesses, the baby’s true identity still eludes the internet. Unless Ebo’s parents come forward to explain the context of the picture, the questions will probably remain unanswered. Some users are even questioning the validity of the image, considering how different Ye looks from his usual self in the click. Particularly due to the smile that he posed with, which is not something he is known to do. 

Although his previous spotting from Saudi Arabia did not raise as much intrigue, they still gave fans a reason to celebrate. 

The Kanye West saga from Saudi Arabia

Besides working on his music, West has also been exploring the Middle Eastern land he finds himself in. Well, locals who spotted him out and about were keen to share their POV on his journey. In Riyadh, the father of four appeared at a KFC where a fan snapped him with his entourage. Next, a photo of him posing next to a fan in Al-‘Ula appeared on X (previously Twitter). 

In addition to these, some behind-the-scenes captures of his studio by Lil Durk also surfaced on social media. Evidently, the 46-year-old had been hopping across the sandy terrain earlier with his daughter by his side. Now, with all the hype around Ebo, it does not seem like the interest in his Arabian adventure is going to go down anytime soon.
