Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West has financial publications crunching numbers this week after recently announcing he is $53 million in personal debt.

According to reports, Yeezy’s massive number stems from how much he spends on ventures.

Sources connected to Kanye tell TMZ the number — $53 mil — reflects how much dough ‘Ye has invested in his own companies related to fashion and music. For instance, we’re told he’s sunk $40 million alone into 3 seasons worth of Yeezy fashion! The good news for Kanye is he’ll make back his investment because he earns like crazy — $22 million in 2015 and $30 million in 2014, according to Forbes. (TMZ)

Kanye went into a lengthy explanation for why he wants Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to invest $1 billion into his ideas this past weekend.
