In 2013, Kanye West co-founded Donda’s House along with Che ‘Rhymefest’ Smith and Donnie Smith as a way to honor his mother after her passing and to give back to Chicago’s youth.
In 2015, Kanye secured the foundation’s largest donation to date — $133,000 — some of which included proceeds from Ye’s performances from the Louis Vuitton Foundation shows in Paris.
“Kanye’s generosity is greatly appreciated and will improve our capacity with new staff as we deliver the high-quality arts programming that our participants deserve,” Executive Director Donnie Smith wrote in a press release at the time.
Rhymefest, also commented on the donation. “This is a great honor and a true tribute to his mother’s legacy, who did so much for young artists,” he said.
Kim is now attempting to clarify Kanye West’s role in the charity.
Let me break this all the way down ...— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
Kanye and Donda started a charity called Loop Dreams. When Donda passed, they changed the name to Donda’s House. Kanye paid Rhymefest a salary to run it.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
After several years of lack of performance from the organization and Kanye going through personal financial issues, he could no longer fund salaries. Rhymefest asked to take it over and Kanye agreed with no financial strings attached.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
Kanye gave his “friend” an opportunity to run an organization on his own. So now that Kanye is being publicly shamed for not being involved makes no sense and, at this exact time, just seems very calculated.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
I have and will always applaud any efforts to give back to the community. To fight for justice and to help uplift the youth. But I will never tolerate someone who was close to Kanye who attempts to use his late mother’s name to publicly shame him while pretending to do good.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
Rhymefest published a statement on behalf of Donda’s House asking those who have boycotted Kanye to not boycott the foundation — and accused Kanye of not donating to help with the demolition of his childhood home.I will always ride for my man!— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 27, 2018
Kim tweets:@Drake when G.O.O.D. Music sends the money they owe you, will you please help us rebuild Kanye’s mothers house for the youth of Chicago. I spoke to Kanye about it. His response was “fuck the youth of Chicago”— Rhymefest (@RHYMEFEST) May 26, 2018
U haven’t been right since u got kicked out of the studio in Hawaii wearing fake Yeezy’s @RHYMEFEST 😂 You’re over levergenging Kanye’s name & asked Kanye to donate money to u so stop w your fake community politics & lies. Truth is you haven’t been able to sustain the foundation— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
I saw you at our studio a few weeks ago so why didn’t you bring this up then @RHYMEFEST ? You were trying to get Kanye to listen to your sub par beats. You have the audacity to use Kanye’s mom name to try to shead a negative light on Kanye.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
You didn’t say this when Kanye paid you up front then you disappeared during Pablo #RealFriends @RHYMEFEST— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
Fuck i spelled leveraging wrong. Typing while pissed will do this to you 😂— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
You better believe I will make it my mission to take Donda’s House from you and let my children run it the way it should be run! @RHYMEFEST— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
Oh and lastly your flight cancelled to Wyoming. You thought you were really worthy to be on this album 😂😂😂— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
Rhymefest responds:Sorry to all of my followers for flooding my timeline I know you have no idea who Rhymefest is.— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) May 26, 2018
