The controversial American rapper Kanye West, who has been gathering dirt on his former partners, has moved from Los Angeles to Tokyo. He claims that in the U.S., he is constantly hunted by paparazzi, whereas in Japan, he can live peacefully. Insiders say that in Tokyo, the rapper lives like a “homeless person from the upper class.”
According to journalist Toure on his Substack, the 47-year-old rapper has settled into a luxurious hotel room in Tokyo, where he is recording his new album *Bully*. He is doing this in the hotel rather than in a studio. A friend of West’s told the journalist that the rapper is waging a “war with the paparazzi” in Los Angeles, but he is rarely bothered by media representatives or the public in Japan.
“When he’s in Japan, people see him, but they behave very quietly. They are very respectful. It’s very rare for anyone to even approach him for a photo. So he can move around Japan without security,” said the insider.
A second source noted that in Japan, West experiences a different level of peace of mind, allowing him to “create really good music.” The sources also pointed out that whereas he used to travel with a entourage of 30 to 50 people, in Tokyo he has no such group and is accompanied by just one engineer.
By the way, rumors recently circulated that Kanye West and Bianca Censori are getting divorced. However, they were later spotted looking happy together in one of Tokyo’s shopping malls.
