Fans of the rapper who bought his new Yeezy Pod shoes a few months back for $200 are fuming after he announced on Instagram that he'd be slashing the price to just $20.

Kanye West has stirred up social media with a post-album-release Instagram spree, following the success of his highly anticipated "Vultures" drop.

The album, featuring nine tracks and a collaboration with his daughter North West, has become a fan favorite. Ye's online extravaganza ranged from sharing the full "Talking/Once Again" music video to donning an Alexander McQueen Jesus mask at the Super Bowl.


Amid the digital fanfare, a contentious move riled fans. Ye posted a snippet from an interview with the caption "YEEZY.COM EVERYTHING $20 AS PROMISED." The online shop boasts a variety of items, including Yeezy Pods, Vultures merch, and Bianca Censori's infamous "WET" top.

While some eagerly rushed to snatch up these bargains, others, who shelled out $200 for Yeezy Pods a few months back, felt a sting of betrayal.

The online outcry quickly spilled over to social media, where a wave of memes captured the sentiments of fans who couldn't help but feel a bit played by the sudden price drop.


Even the Ye fan accounts got in on the meme-ing.

Some people were very supportive of Ye's price drop.

Many admitted that his numbers after the price drop were impressive.

Even worse, said some people who had paid the full price.

Customers betrayed by the massive price drop can apparently get a $180 refund.

One person saw the larger picture in the price cut: sneaker culture is ridiculous.

Ye's new album took the #1 spot on Spotify on February 11th, as the artist later shared.

Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real

On March 19, the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), comprising people appointed by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, unanimously approved a final design concept proposed for a 24-karat gold United States semiquincentennial commemorative coin.

Instead of featuring the Declaration of Independence or some other images central to the foundation of the nation in 1776 or more universally recognized symbols from the last 250 years, the CFA chose a sketch based on a photo of Trump leaning over the Resolute desk in the Oval Office for the coin's obverse or "heads" side.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports

After President Donald Trump moved to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, California Governor Gavin Newsom pointed out exactly why the move is so troubling for citizens and non-citizens alike.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
