Kanye West, nowadays known as Ye, is one of the most controversial celebrities in the world right now. He has made many controversial claims in the past, even leading to personal net worth loss because of ‘Cancel Culture.’ Joe Rogan‘s JRE podcast is another platform where controversial claims often arise from. As such, the rapper went on X to confirm his podcast with the UFC commentator.
The confirmation came via leaked text messages between the rapper and the JRE host. What awaited Kanye West and his fan base was a huge disappointment. As soon as Rogan heard about the tweet, the UFC commentator revealed that he has not contacted the rapper in any way. It leaves the viewers to understand that Ye was speaking to an imposter.
Hey, @kanyewest, I don’t know who you’re talking to but that’s not me.

Since Rogan confirmed the imposter, Kanye has deleted his tweet. Meanwhile, fans are trolling the controversial rapper for getting fooled by an imposter. Much has been made about Ye’s blunder online since the UFC commentator chimed in.

In fact, the rapper has appeared on JRE in 2020 for episode #1554. At that time, he didn’t transform to the ‘Ye’ personality. He went by Kanye West at that time, and hadn’t made the antisemitic comments and was yet to be a public enemy. The Grammy Award winner has yet to return to JRE since his transformation into Ye.
Joe Rogan stunned by Kanye West’s work schedule
One-time Super Bowl champion Antonio Brown recently came on the JRE podcast. During his conversation with Joe Rogan, the ex-NFL player spoke about the work ethics of Kanye West. Brown described the rapper as energetic and a genius person.

Furthermore, he spoke about the punctuality of the Grammy Award winner. Brown revealed that West starts his work at 8 AM whenever he works. However, the UFC commentator was stunned to learn that new information about West.
That’s unusual, Rappers at 8 AM? He’s a genius. He’s scattered all over the place, and sometimes goes a little off.

Furthermore, Rogan spoke about the controversies associated with the rapper. Meanwhile, Brown claimed that the controversies are part of a marketing tactic used by Ye. It remains to be seen if controversial rapper graces the popular podcast anytime soon after the aforementioned imposter DMs incident.
