Kanye West has left fans fuming following his Yeezy fashion show on Monday 4 October, which featured the tagline “White Lives Matter”.
The rapper and designer, who presented his latest fashion collection at Paris Fashion Week, was dragged for the “racist” phrase, which seemingly counters the human rights movement “Black Lives Matter”.
But Kanye was not content to just share his controversial views with the world, he publicly attacked critics who disagreed with him too.

KANYE WEST SLAMS VOGUE EDITOR
Making a surprise appearance at Paris Fashion Week was Kanye West and his collection YZY SZN 9. But more surprisingly was Kanye West’s white supremacist stance with its shocking slogan.
And Ye didn’t hold back when it came to putting on blast anyone who criticised his work.
One of the people Kanye West took aim at was Vogue fashion editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, who found his views on “White Lives Matter” offensive and insulting.
Gabriella, who attended the show alongside editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, claimed that she was left “traumatised” by the show.
“I’m fuming”, she shared on her Instagram Stories.
She added of his concept of “revolution”: “It didn’t land and it was deeply offensive, violent and dangerous.
“The T-shirts this man conceived, produced, and shared with the world are pure violence. There is no excuse, there is no art here”.
Like he did before with Adidas and GAP management, Kanye named and shamed the editor in several Instagram posts.
Clapping back, the Yeezy creator captioned a pic of Karefa Johnson with the words: “This is not a fashion person You speak on Ye Ima speak on you Ask Trevor Noah”.
Kanye is referring to a racial slur he made earlier this year in which he labelled the South African comedian a “coon” after the latter criticised his treatment of ex-wife Kim Kardashian during a segment of The Daily Show.
In another post, Ye shamed Karefa-Johnson over her choice of clothing. “I know Anna hates these boots”, he said, referencing the editor.
