The artist formerly known as Kanye West is debunking claims that he wrote a bucket list circulating online that’s been attributed to the rapper.
On Sunday (Dec. 28), a lengthy handwritten checklist was shared by the Instagram account @styleconcept001 that included Ye’s supposed mix of travel, lifestyle, and creative goals.
The life goals on the list included climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, owning a pug, buying homes in Jamaica and New York, visiting landmarks like the Great Wall of China and Christ the Reedemer, and learning new skills to include painting and, most surprisingly, pole dancing.
Ye addressed the post on his official X account the following day, writing, "That so called bucket list is fake. It's not my hand writing."
Even before the 48-year-old rapper's response, commenters were skeptical.
Although one user noted the list’s handwriting is similar to what appeared on the Vultures tracklist, another user argued the list had to be outdated since one of the checklist items included buying a house in New York.
As reported by People, the record producer once owned a condo in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, which he purchased in 2004 and sold in 2019.
A separate user noted that Ye had already visited Christ the Redeemer and concluded the circulating list was not authentic. Per the New York Daily News, Ye visited the famous Brazilian statue with Kim Kardashian in February 2013.
While perhaps he's not working on his bucket list, Ye was spotted with wife Bianca Censori in Los Angeles at a performance of The Nutcracker ballet on Christmas Eve.
A source also told TMZ that the Yeezus artist and Kim Kardashian were able to put aside their differences and spend a “cordial” but unspecified amount of time together for the holidays with their children: North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6.
