Report: Kanye West is trying to legally change his full name to “Ye”

Kanye West is about to hold another listening event for his album Donda, and on the eve of that ostensible release party, he's giving fans one more hurdle to finding the album on streaming services: TMZ reports that West has filed legal documents in a Los Angeles court asking a judge to change his full name from "Kanye Omari West" to "Ye." It's unclear when or if the allegedly requested change will take place — The FADER has reached out to Kanye's representative for more information.

As anyone who has even a passing knowledge of Kanye probably knows, "Ye" is his long-standing nickname. It's also the title of his 2018 album.
