“Ye is a black man in America who wants the right to full self-determination just like everyone else,” the rapper’s chief of staff, Milo Yiannopoulos, wrote.

Kanye West’s chief of staff, Milo Yiannopoulos, demanded in a letter that the rapper be referred to as Ye and not his “slave name.”

Yiannopoulos, 39, wrote that he is calling on “streaming platforms, publishers, stores, unions, lyrics websites and data resellers” to make the change since they are some of “the most visible places.” “In the Bible, it means ‘you,’” he said. “So I’m you, I’m us, it’s us. It went from Kanye, which means the only one, to just Ye. Just being a reflection of our good, our bad, our confused, everything. The album is more of a reflection of who we are.”Pregnant stars swear by Bumpsuit’s sleek and stretchy maternity styles
