Hip-hop and fashion mogul Kanye West is nearing the end of his six-year marriage to billionaire influencer Kim Kardashian. As their divorce case plays out, Kanye is reportedly already considering what -- and who -- is next for him on the dating scene.
Kanye West Prefers Someone Very Different From Kim K.
According to Page Six, Kanye West would prefer that his next relationship be with someone who is “an artist and a creative person,” who can “speak the same language.” The ever-unique producer’s soon-to-be ex was undeniably on his level of entrepreneurship, but Kim Kardashian has never been known to be the artistic type.

Kanye Claps Back At Kim’s Divorce Push
In the meantime, Yeezy isn’t taking his divorce lightly. The hip-hop star has reportedly responded to Kim’s request to legally separate by requesting joint custody of their children and no spousal support.
According to a legal response filed by the rapper’s attorney on Friday and obtained by PEOPLE on Monday, West, 43, requests joint legal and physical custody of their children: daughters North, 7, and Chicago, 3, and sons Saint, 5, and Psalm, who will turn 2 in May. West also asks for the court’s right to award spousal support for either person to be terminated, the filing says. In the document, West’s counsel lists irreconcilable differences as the couple’s reason for divorce, though a date of separation is not given. (People)

Kanye West Might Be The Wealthiest Black Man In US History
Kanye’s publicized divorce from Kim K. isn’t hurting his business moves or net worth. New estimates have slated Ye as the wealthiest Black man in United States history. Kanye West is now worth $6.6 billion.
The 43-year-old rapper is worth $6.6 billion, a significant increase from the amount that West was reported as being worth back in April 2020 by Forbes, PEOPLE confirms.

The “Famous” rapper [Kanye West] also has $122 million in cash and stock and $110 million from his music catalog, alongside $1.7 billion in other assets, including estranged wife Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS business.
