Kanye West is perhaps the most polarizing artist of modern times and holds a central figure in pop culture. This panel conversation takes a look at all sides of the Yeezy phenomenon which, on the one hand, takes a look at his influence in music, fashion and culture and the other, is engulfed in controversies including his recent remarks on slavery, antisemitism and unwarranted rants on social media. How does Kanye West fit in this cancel culture era? Does his inspiring presence grant him a carte blanche access into the minds of his fans and followers?
Panelists: Trine Halvorsen, Shyam Royala, Jon Towels og Doriansgrave.
