Rapper Kanye West appeared to come out as gay during a manic rant concerning his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and their ongoing custody dispute.

The 47-year-old, adorned in an all-black outfit and face mask, had been talking about not seeing his four kids that he shares with Kardashian, 44.

As he concluded the two-minute diatribe, he said: ‘I ain’t got no motherf****** legacy n****, why the f*** you think I am s****ing out.’

He then appeared to say: ‘I’m gay. [inaudible] in charge of my legacy and I’m gay. I’m in charge of my legacy.’

Social media users have debated over whether he actually said ‘I’m gay’, or was speaking about himself and repeating ‘I’m Ye’.

It comes after a separate post to his X account just last week in which he made remarks concerning him and his male cousin having a incestuous relationship.

While teasing a new song, titled ‘COUSINS’, he said: ‘This song is called COUSINS about my cousin that’s locked in jail for life for killing a pregnant lady a few years after I told him we wouldn’t “look at dirty magazines together” anymore.

‘Perhaps in my self centered mess I felt it was my fault that I showed him those dirty magazines when he was 6 and then we acted out what we saw.

‘My dad had playboy magazines but the magazines I found in the top of my moms closet were different. My name is Ye and I sucked my cousins d*** till I was 14.’

Following a series of posts, he then shared the rainbow emoji to X, writing: ‘This is my new logo’, before adding that he wasn’t actually gay.

Kanye and Kim share four children together: North, 11, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm,5

In his latest statement, West also said: ”I’mma go get these kids, bro. I’m talking to the lawyers – it gets to the point where I don’t lose my f***in’ mind where I got to get used to not seeing my kids.’

The Stronger artist added, ‘[DJ] Akademiks put that battery in my back, bro – cause I was in the airport by myself … I’mma go get these kids, man!’

West, who recently returned from Japan, has been working on new music as of late and corresponding with fans on social media about the upcoming slate of releases.

He previously shared a series of X posts on March 19 in which he said that he was put off by a white woman being in control of his black children.

West also shockingly said that he wished he had children with Paris Hilton instead of Kardashian.

Kanye had referenced how Kardashian had got her start in the limelight by acting as Paris’ assistant.

‘Kim was Paris Hilton’s assistant. I should’ve had babies with Paris Hilton over Kim Kardashian!’ he said in the widely panned remarks.

Kanye and Kim share four children together: North, 11, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5.

‘Could you imagine if I had kids with Paris Hilton? How many hotels I would have right now? Think about that. The Hilton. The Hilton s***’, he said.

West spoke more about the controversy in a series of posts on February 20 – promising to wear the swastika shirt onstage at the Super Bowl.

‘Next year I’m performing at the superbowl wearing my wittle T shirt,’ he said. ‘People with money bought my wittle t shirt.’

He added that Shopify ‘gave [him his] account back’ after taking down his store after controversy erupted over the shirts, but that he was ‘not going to use it.’

The Anti-Defamation League said in a post on X: ‘As if we needed further proof of Kanye’s antisemitism, he chose to put a single item for sale on his website – a t-shirt emblazoned with a swastika.

‘If that wasn’t enough, the t-shirt is labeled on Kanye’s website as “HH-01,”which is code for “Heil Hitler.”

‘Kanye was tweeting vile antisemitism nonstop since last week. There’s no excuse for this kind of behavior.’

The organization added: ‘Even worse, Kanye advertised his website during the Super Bowl, amplifying it beyond his already massive social media audience.’

They finalized their divorce in 2022 and agreed to joint custody of the kids, but the conflict between them has continued

Sources close to Kardashian have told DailyMail.com that she is now taking extra precautions and has hired guards to be with her 24/7 amid his erratic behavior.

The reality star has also told relatives to be careful sharing anything about her children online, the source revealed.

She has instructed her closest allies not to post about their locations or upload photos or messages that could identify where they might be.

‘She’s absolutely horrified,’ the source told the Daily Mail. ‘Like every time things get bad with Kanye, somehow they get worse.’

They finalized their divorce in 2022 and agreed to joint custody of their children, but the conflict between them has continued.

‘I HAVENT SEEN SAINT THIS YEAR,’ he wrote, despite the fact that they were pictured together in January.

Although West has accused Kardashian of not allowing him to see his children, the Daily Mail can confirm that he saw Saint, Chicago and Psalm at the time.
