In the midst of a tumultuous year marked by controversial tweets, admiration for Hitler, and wild accusations involving various celebrities, Kanye West made a unexpected decision to share his funeral arrangements on Twitter.
Typical of Kanye, his plans are far from conventional. He disclosed his desire for a funeral lasting “at least a week” with a 10-hour service held daily to allow uninterrupted speeches.
But that’s not the end of it – he also expressed his wish to be embalmed and exhibited in his mother’s former residence, with proceeds from entry fees benefiting the local community.
Morbid? Sure. Surprising? Not even a little. For an artist obsessed with legacy and a spectacle, a self-designed royal-style funeral feels on brand for the Hip-Hop polarizer.
One thing’s clear, even after he’s gone, Kanye West plans to keep the world watching.
