The couple made headlines after the ceremony on February 3 when Censori showed up in a controversial see-through dress. The incident was claimed to be a stunt seeing the couple recreate the ‘Vultures 1’ album cover.

After the Grammys incident, social media began wondering if Censori was alright, and if she was under Kanye West’s control. In an explosive social media tirade, Kanye would later claim “dominion” over his wife: “I have dominion over my wife. This ain’t no woke as feminist shit. She’s with a billionaire, why would she listen to any of you dumb ass broke bitches?

“People say the red carpet look was her decision… Yes, I don’t make her do nothing she doesn’t want to, but she definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without my approval, you stupid ass woke pawns.”

Following West’s tweets, reports emerged that the couple were heading for divorce, however, this was later denied by the rappers’ representative Milo Yiannopoulos.

Now, West has claimed that the Recording Academy didn’t give him any tickets to attend the event and that he had to fight to get access to the red carpet.

The rapper took to X/Twitter on Saturday (February 15) to say that, as his song ‘Carnival’ was nominated for Best Rap Song, he should have been invited.

How could the Grammies nominate me then not give me tickets and then people mad when I go off. I had to fight for 5 hours and call everyone I knew to get tickets to the Grammies. They eventually gave me tickets but only for the red carpet. At that point I hadn’t started the rampage,” he wrote in the now-deleted tweet, per Complex.

The “rampage” he is referring to is his subsequent post-Grammys tweets, which saw him rescind his apology to the Jewish community for his past anti-Semitic remarks, and go on to declare himself as “a Nazi” and write: “I love Hitler”, as well as praise billionaire and X owner Elon Musk as “the most lit person that [has] ever been on Twitter”, following the latter’s accusations of Nazism at Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration.

Further posts saw him mock other marginalised communities, claim that “slavery is a choice” and more. He then wiped his website and began selling only a white T-shirt with a large swastika on the chest, listed as “HH-01” – possibly a reference to the “Heil Hitler” chant.
