Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, was poised for a grand return this year, heralded by the ambitious announcement of a three-part album, 'Vultures.' While a track from the first one slowly crawled to the top of the charts, only to be replaced by Kendrick Lamar's diss track. The second installment, marred by anticipation, was met with pre-release disappointment from fans. However, this seems to be only the tip of the iceberg of misfortunes that has befallen Ye.

Ye professional scenario chops up to be quite a pretty picture compared to things on the legal and financial front. The artist who was once a raging millionaire finds himself surrounded by tax debts.

When Ye made his way back into the spotlight this year, fans expected that he would reclaim Yeezy and make it the industry-changing success that he always wanted it to be. However, things could not have been more different as the rapper has not only failed to make another launch but also is left with an unpaid sum of $934,033 on Yeezy Apparel. To put the cherry on top, his Wyoming ranch has two payments of $5,000 that are yet to be paid as per The Sun.

Not only is Ye facing troubles on the financial front in terms of maintaining his lifestyle, but also on the legal side. The rapper's attorney recently filed for separation owing to the rapper not having paid his fee. Ye's fall from his billionaire status and his attempt to regain the same, no more remains a secret, as the worst fall might have just hit the rapper in freestyle.

Although he seemed to be facing legal and financial troubles, rap enthusiasts stood by Ye's side, citing his musical prowess. However, with his 'Vultures 2' drop nowhere in sight and Big Sean throwing shots at him, Ye's loyal fanbase may soon develop a tremor in their long stand.

While Drake and Kendrick Lamar may be battling it out, and the debate surrounding the big three may be as loud as ever, Ye's words being gospel still remain true and his legacy is untouched. However, it seems like you cannot leave your throne unattended for too long, as Big Sean has now come for his money, with claims of Ye being a clout chaser.

The rapper recently released a freestyle with On The Radar radio and chose violence as his weapon. Sean did not hold back in poking anyone, including what fans believe is the sleeping lion, Ye. Whether this dig will result in Ye coming back in full swing after supposedly retiring or whether he will once again receive the shorter end of the stick remains unclear, but fans are all tuned in.
