His reasons are very much ”personal” and that’s what he mentioned in the petition as well.
There is a lot that Kanye will have to undergo and before we move to that, let’s eye out a few more details.
Several statements have been making rounds that talk about Kanye wanting to legally have a new name. The Superior Court in Los Angeles has got the documents from The Associated Press.Â
