Ye has apparently switched up his moniker yet again, nearly four years after he legally renounced his birth name, Kanye Omari West.In business documents obtained by multiple outlets on Tuesday, the rapper was listed under the name “Ye Ye.” West’s chief financial officer, Hussain Lalani, reportedly filed the documents with the California Secretary of State. “Ye Ye” was listed as the “manager or member” of West’s companies Yeezy Apparel, Yeezy Record Label and Ox Paha Inc. in the documents, according to E! News.It’s unclear whether the “Power” musician, who has not publicly announced his new moniker, has filed separate documents to legally change his name again.Ye’s representatives did not immediately reply to HuffPost’s request for comment. In October 2021, a Los Angeles judge approved the 24-time Grammy winner’s petition to officially change his name to Ye after he requested the name change in August. Several years earlier, in a 2018 post on what was then Twitter, the artist had written, “The being formally known as Kanye West. I am YE.”That same year, Ye spoke to radio host Big Boy about the meaning behind the name.“I believe Ye is the most commonly used word in the Bible,” he said in the June 2018 interview. “In the Bible it means ‘you.’ So I’m you, I’m us. It went from being Kanye, which means the only one, to being just Ye — just being a reflection of our good, our bad, our confused, everything. I’m just more a reflection of who we are.”Close
