After Kanye West, now Ye’s 18 months of creative catnap, when the rapper returned to the mainstream with ‘Vultures’ followed by his sneak out of social hibernation, fans expected nothing less than a phoenix-like-rise from the ashes. Although true to his fans’ expectations, he delivered and met them halfway with an incomplete series before fanning the flames for something entirely new, ‘Bully,’ what followed simultaneously was his mounting legal woes. Just when his fans thought the series of upset updates finally hit the brakes, a deposition clip from 2021 surfaced, leaving them to buckle up for a wild ride.

While Mr. West has his ways of raising eyebrows, this unearthing had fans backing him up without missing a beat.

GoodAssSub recently shared several resurfaced clips of a 2021 Zoom deposition from the A&E series Interrogation Raw: Celebrity Under Oath, scheduled for a premiere on December 26. His 2021 tech lawsuit deposition has taken the Internet by storm, with newly surfaced Zoom clips showcasing a tense showdown between the artist and the opposing counsel. In one viral excerpt, a lawyer cautions Ye’s defense team that their client’s lack of cooperation has squandered seven precious hours, requiring him to return for the deposition.

As the rapper’s frustration mounts, he poses a pointed question of whether he could go to jail over this. The lawyer swiftly rebuffs Ye’s inquiry, reminding him that the deposition is about answering questions, not asking them. However, the response only has him boiling over, sparking a heated exchange. The lawyer’s firm rebuttal sparks a tense confrontation where Mr. West nearly calls them “crazy” for not letting him pose questions to his lawyer.

On the other hand, a few folks urged the rapper simply to answer the questions, wondering how hard it could be. Mr. West’s unscripted life truly has fans holding their breath, whether he is orchestrating a musical masterpiece or navigating treacherous legal waters. Still, as the deposition excerpts make headlines, his fans’ steadfast loyalty proves his celebrity eclipses even the most dramatic of courtroom sagas.
