Ye Links Up With Jim Jones in Tokyo, Leaving Fans Seated for His “best era”
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, was once the flag-bearer of hip-hop’s golden era. But with time’s passing, the rapper broke out of his shell, becoming the Renaissance man of hip-hop to keep it going with his razor sharp genius. From pushing the boundaries with his genre-defying anthems to revolutionizing the fashion fence of showbiz, the artist is a well-reputed jack of all trades. Although fans may have had a fair share of reservation against the rapper’s retrospective rollouts, a recent update left them in a frenzy over his recent meet and greet with Jim Jones in Tokyo.
Since Ye came back to the mainstream with ‘Vultures’ on his coattails, the Atlanta native let go of his American dream to make a home away from home in Tokyo. From every new highlight to all the fresh controversies, Ye found his tribe in Japan. GoodAssSub recently shared three new clips from one of the rapper’s star-studded Tokyo drift sessions, in which he was caught in the lenses chilling with Jim Jones and Justin LaBoy at a night club amidst rising anticipation for ‘Bully.’

Having traded his American dream for artistic freedom in Japan, Ye is on the cusp of a triumphant era, with Tokyo preparing to bear witness to his greatness, now amplified by the presence of Jim Jones and Justin LaBoy.
