Sources tell E! News it’s not actually personal debt but money that Kanye has invested into his fashion line and other business ventures.
“That’s the money he’s spent over the past 13 years on fashion, his films and music videos. It’s not debt per se. He always invests in himself and that’s where that number came from,” the source, who is reportedly close to Kayne, told E! News.
