The rapper also tied his support for Donald Trump's potential presidential run to the release of Larry Hoover from prison. In a troubling moment, he yelled about his daughter, North, and claimed she had torn up couches to be with him.

"My daughter ripped up the mother f**king couches in the house to be able to be with me right now."

North was present at Ye's "Vultures" listening event on Thursday night in Vegas. Next to Ty Dolla $ign and North, he rapped, "I still keep some Jews with me. Management? Nah. I only let 'em do my jewelry."

During the live-streamed rant, Kanye complained that no one was standing up for him, and he threatened to have a woman removed from the room after she challenged him saying, "You ain't God, (N-word)."

Kanye West, also known as Ye, is once again at the center of controversy, this time for his choice of attire at the 'Vultures' album party in Miami, Florida.

The Grammy-winning rapper appeared at the Art Basel event wearing an all-black outfit topped with a pointed hood that closely resembled the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) hood, a symbol associated with the notorious white supremacist group.

The event, which showcased a preview of Kanye West's collaborative album with Ty Dolla Sign, featured performances of tracks like 'Everybody' and 'New Body,' the latter featuring Nicki Minaj.

Kanye's daughter, North, also took the stage to perform a verse from an album track.

However, it was Kanye's choice of clothing that sparked outrage and intense debates online. The pointed black hood drew parallels to the attire associated with the KKK, a symbol of hate and racism in the United States.

This isn't the first time Kanye West has incorporated controversial imagery into his work. The music video for his 2013 track 'Black Skinhead' featured a trio of black hoods, serving as a backdrop for an AI version of the rapper.
