Website is probably a Beck reference
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Kanye West is a polarising individual. Personally I've come full circle and think Yeezus is a great record and admire the rapper's anger and keen sense of disgust, but it's fair to say he has as many detractors as admirers.
One of them made loser.com redirect to his Wikipedia entry this week, presumably a Beck reference as Loser is his most famous song.
Jerk.com and Plum.com still show pretty dated websites though if anyone fancies a buy-out.
In the face of fresh criticism following his second award ceremony stage storm last month, Yeezy announced the name of his new album yesterday.
There is no release date for 'So Help Me God' yet, which he claims will feature "music that just feels good".
"My last album was a protest of music," he said. "This album’s just embracing the music, embracing joy, and just being of service to the people."
The album is part of a new positivity kick he seems to be on, having recently made a public apology to Beck.
