There is no slowing down, says Kanye West, who brazenly opts for a KKK hood in colour black at ‘Vultures’ listening event. Undoubtedly, the rapper has been unapologetic about his moves in recent times. Even though many have branded him a racist, he continues to ignore his critics. Surprisingly, this move won him some hearty cheers from fans.

Kanye West’s Black “KKK-inspired” Hood at ‘Vultures’ Listening Party

Kanye West went back in time to pull a controversial fashion, aka the KKK hood, but in black. While performing at his “Vultures” listening party, the rapper dressed in a uniquely shaped hood, a matching-coloured casual shirt, and pants.

This performance premiered on December 11 at the Miami Art Basel. Next to him was his eldest child, North, who thrilled fans with her talent. Kanye surprised fans after he implied that the 10-year-old was featured in his album.

Reactions and Attendees Of Kanye West’s Vultures Listening Party

Kanye West’s black KKK hood was not much of the focus for the night. Instead, fans allowed themselves to enjoy the music and stage performances. Those who watched online barely had anything bad to say about his appearance.

At the same time, the rapper was joined by other notable entertainers who made it to the album. The list runs from Lil Durk, TY Dolla $ign, Freddie Gibbs, Kodak Black, Offset, and Chris Brown.

Speaking of support, Kanye’s wife, Bianca Censori, was present, including two of his kids, Saint and Chicago. No one spotted his ex-wife, Kim, and TMZ reported that Censori cradled the youngest child present —Chicago.

Critics have rained heat on the rapper over his antisemitic comments. About two weeks ago, many clamped down on his “Vultures” song after hearing some of the lyrics. Some fans even called for the cancel culture to take effect on Kanye and Chris Brown’s career as they were seen dancing to the track.

Seemingly, the dust has settled, and the black KKK hood worn by Kanye West at his ‘Vultures’ listening event is yet to arouse any reaction. This is not the first time that Kanye has donned the piece. 2013, he featured it in the “Black Head” video, and there was zero controversy.
