Kanye West’s Departure from Rap: A Reflection on Meaning and Value.
In a recent statement that has ignited considerable debate within the music community, controversial American rapper Kanye West declared that he no longer listens to rap music. The billionaire mogul expressed his discontent with the current state of the genre, asserting that contemporary rappers are failing to produce meaningful content.
West’s remarks, shared on his X handle, underscore his belief that modern rap lacks the substance necessary to contribute to his personal and financial growth. He stated, “I don’t listen to rap. I don’t know who the f*ck is rapping anymore. Yuno Miles is likely my favourite artist. I’m a 47-year-old billionaire, why the f*ck would u listen to rap? There’s not one piece of information in rap that benefits my agendas or helps me get money.”
This perspective raises important questions about the evolving nature of rap music and its cultural significance. While some may view West’s comments as dismissive, they also reflect a broader shift in the industry, where the focus on commercial success often overshadows artistic depth. As artists and audiences navigate this changing landscape, the challenge remains to create music that is not only profitable but also meaningful and impactful.

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy has reportedly gifted fellow artist Portable N20 million following the latter’s victory over Speed Darlington in a recent celebrity boxing match. The “Chaos in the Rings” event saw Portable declared the winner after Speed Darlington sustained an arm injury during the first round and subsequently forfeited the second.
Portable announced the substantial gift on his Instagram story, directly attributing it to Burna Boy, who has publicly feuded with Speed Darlington in the past. The gesture suggests a pointed celebration of Portable’s triumph and underscores the ongoing rivalry within the Nigerian music scene.
Nigerian musician Portable emerged victorious in the highly anticipated celebrity boxing match against Speed Darlington, held Saturday night at the Balmoral Events Centre in Lagos. The event, dubbed ‘Chaos in the Rings,’ saw an abrupt conclusion when Speed Darlington was unable to continue after sustaining a broken arm during the first round.
The match, fueled by a prior dispute over a N500,000 performance fee offered to Portable by Darlington, ended in Portable’s favor as his opponent failed to appear for the second round. This win marks Portable’s second celebrity boxing victory, following his previous triumph against actor Charles Okocha four months prior. The outcome has generated significant discussion and interest within the Nigerian entertainment scene.
