How Did Kanye West Get $2 Million From The Government?!?

On the 4th of July, Kanye West announced on Twitter he's running for President. Even though that run won't be easy for Yeezy, the government is already helping him.

The Yeezy brand owned by billionaire Kanye West borrowed at least $2 million from the government to stay afloat during the coronavirus pandemic.

His streetwear brand "Yeezy LLC" is listed as being granted between $2 million and $5 million from the Paycheck Protection Program. The PPP is meant to help small businesses keep workers employed during the COVID-19 induced shutdown. 

Kanye's company says using the forgivable loan will help them to save 106 jobs. 

Just last week Kanye and the fashion store Gap announced a 10-year apparel deal.

It's safe to say Kanye's coins are coming from some place...what do you think?

Kanye West Says He's Running For President

With the presidential election only four months away, getting on the ballot won't be Yeezy. Or will it?

Kanye West announced on Twitter that he's running for president in the 2020 U.S. election.

Ye has publicly supported Donald Trump, but it seems now he wants to go toe-to-toe saying "We must now realize the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision and building our future. I am running for president of the United States! #2020VISION."

West tweeted his plans days after teasing a new song and a new album titled "God's Country."
Fans immediately swarmed with support for Kanye who also has a history of promoting himself and his projects with political statements.
According to CNN, Kanye "still needs to register with the Federal Election Commission, present a campaign platform, collect enough signatures to get on the November ballot and more."
Plus he has already missed the deadline to file as an independent candidate in many states including Texas.

Cam Newton Signs Shocking Contract With The New England Patriots

Cam Newton has signed a shocking (to some) contract with the New England Patriots.

 The terms include $500,000 in guaranteed money, a $1.05 million base salary, and a collection of roster bonuses and incentives that could push the total value of the one-year deal to $7.5 million.

In an Instagram post today,  Newton made his first comments about the financial aspects of his deal saying “This is not about money for me; It’s about respect."

What do you think about the New England Patriots snagging the former MVP for less than even many backups?
