The hip-hop mogul is seemingly living full-time in Tokyo as of early 2025 to finish his next album.

<p id=”par-2_70″>Kanye West and Bianca Censori have been spotted jet-setting worldwide since 2024. Reports suggest the couple resides full-time in a Tokyo hotel so that West can complete his new album. “[West] is hunkered down in his hotel room working on his next solo album <em>Bully</em>, which will apparently be self-produced,” music journalist Touré revealed, according to <a href=”https://www.themirror.com/entertainment/celebrity-news/kanye-west-living-like-upper-744773″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Mirror US</a>. Touré noted that West lives “upper-class homeless” in the Japanese city.</p>
<p id=”par-3_24″>In addition to Japan, West and Censori have reportedly been to Paris, Moscow, Tuscany, and more recently, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kanye-west-bianca-censori-switched-original-birthday-plans-source-says.html/”>the Maldives</a> from 2024 to 2025. </p>
<p id=”par-4_64″>While West and Censori continue to travel, sources told <a href=”https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-14260031/Kanye-West-Diddy-sean-combs-lawsuits.html” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>DailyMail.com</a> that West doesn’t want to return to the States because of the lawsuits against him. Ye’s former Director of Intelligence anonymously sued West for unpaid wages and emotional distress. Additionally, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kanye-wests-ex-employees-accuse-bianca-censori-showing-explicit-content-lawsuit.html/”>four minors that West hired</a> hit him with a $1 million lawsuit. His ex-assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, is also suing him for sexual harassment. </p>
<p id=”par-5_81″>“Kanye’s reasoning for not being [in America] has nothing to do with his children and has everything to do with the multiple lawsuits that he is facing in the States,” the sources told the publication. ” … Kanye loves his kids more than life itself and has said this many times. He speaks to them and FaceTimes with them often. North is a daddy’s little girl. [West] maintains his innocence, but this is what he’s keeping out of the country for.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_26″>Additionally, the sources noted that West feels “terrified” by the allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs. “With all this stuff with Diddy, Kanye is terrified,” they continued.</p>

Kardashian and West sustained a marriage from 2014-2022. </p>
<p id=”par-8_40″>“You see I’m saying favorite artist — everything, not specifically production, the trip. Back then there were so many rules to hip-hop, and he broke all of them,” West said of Combs at the 2022 BET Awards, according to <a href=”https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13961217/kanye-diddy-friendship-truth-revealed-Justin-Bieber.html” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>DailyMail.com</a>.</p>

<p id=”par-10_46″>Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have four kids together: North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5.

<p id=”par-11_29″>“It’s got Kim’s head swirling and she’s obligated to apprise herself of the situation,” the source explained. “But to say she finds it sordid and stressful is an understatement.”</p>
<p id=”par-12_50″>The source added that Kardashian intends to fight West if he plans on making a full-time move to Tokyo. “It obviously poses all sorts of complications and challenges from a logistical point of view, and Kim’s very worried about what the future holds if he goes ahead,” the insider alleged.</p>
