Rapper, songwriter, and producer Kanye West made the news several times last year for a number of reasons. He is renowned for his tremendously successful music career and his outspoken demeanor.
On the one hand, he has produced a number of critically acclaimed and commercially successful records, received 21 Grammy Awards for his contributions, and is also well-known for his fashion brand and other forays into the entertainment sector. However, on the other hand, West comes out as overly divisive and bigoted.
Due to his recent controversial comments, he also lost the Adidas deal after he made multiple anti-Semitic comments and targeted Jews. But as the new year started, a false story that the rapper was missing appeared online, and after this, many people started claiming that he had passed away. Due to this, he became a trending topic of discussion.
However, it is not true. So, let’s find out how and why these rumors started:
Why are fake reports of Kanye West’s death spreading?
Soon after false web reports of Kanye’s disappearance appeared, suspicions of his death began to circulate. A lot of people were concerned about the rapper because he hadn’t shown up in a while.
At the same time, the rapper had not published any online content, which many people believed was contrary to what he usually did. With all of this in mind, people quickly assumed that he had had some sort of accident.
However, in reality, Kanye is actually still alive. These are only rumors that have been spreading online.
How did these fake rumors start spreading?
After a hip-hop news Twitter account named Daily Loud made a similar allegation in one of its tweets, reports about Kanye going missing began to circulate. The newspaper posted a photo of the musician and stated,
“Kanye West has reportedly been missing and unable to find for weeks according to his ex-business manager.”
The tweet quickly gained popularity as a result of the immediate interaction with the post. The article, however, made no mention of how they acquired this information.
Right now, it appears like Kanye has made the choice to distance himself from the public and give himself more attention.
