Grammy-winning singer Rihanna‘s father recently talked about hip-hop star Kanye West‘s need to look fresh by paying hundreds on daily haircuts.
According to RiRi’s dad Ronald Fenty, Ye dropped $500 daily when he toured with his daughter in 2010.
“It’s crazy – he pays his barber $500 (£327) a time. I don’t understand how that much hair gets taken off. Kanye just loves the fresh look,” Ronald added. We even tracked down the owner of those god-touching clippers, Ibn Jasper, who first met Kanye in Chicago 20 years ago. “He asked me to move to New York City and I told him, ‘When you can pay me what I make in my shop, I’ll move’,” Ibn told us.

This week, Kanye provided fans with a small update on his long-awaited SWISH album.
“I don’t want to overly describe it or overly try to hype it up. I’ve been working slow. I had a while to work on it and I separated a couple of tracks – and gave them to other people like ‘Four Five Seconds’ to Rihanna and the joint on the Weeknd album, ‘Tell Your Friends.’ I [have] still kept working trying to find [what will appear] on my album. I’m just going into the lab every night. It’s sounding good, it’s like a sonic painting and it gets better and better every week.” (Real 92.3)
Recently, G.O.O.D. Music affiliate Travi$ Scott said the delayed solo effort would be worth the wait.
“And man, that Kanye album? OK. Let me hang up before it gets crazy! [laughs] That Ye album is nothing to sleep on and that Ye album is coming very soon. It’s lit. G.O.O.D. Music.” (Beats 1)

A few weeks ago, new Yeezy music premiered through Kanye’s Soundcloud page.
The first is a reworking of the 808s & Heartbreak song “Say You Will” featuring Caroline Shaw, a composer who happens to be the youngest person to win a Pulitzer Prize for music, while the second is Kanye’s version of the Weeknd’s “Tell Your Friends,” which Kanye produced for Beauty Behind the Madness. Though it’s not clear whether or not these songs will be on SWISH, they do at least give Yeezy fans hope that SWISH might actually happen one day. (Cosmopolitan)
