5. Jesus Christ and the Kardashians
Kanye moves into reality TV and embraces fashion. Yeezus is released and massively influences pop culture but the pressure builds.
Mobeen and guests talk about the Yeezus stage of Kanye. He marries Kim and appears on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. He’s at the very centre of pop culture. He also embraces the fashion industry and starts his own Adidas brand - Yeezy.
What took Kanye West from hit-maker to a political agitator, spreading anti-Jewish hate? And where does he go next? Mobeen explores the rapper's rise and fall.
