Kanye West made a surprise appearance at the tail end of Art Basel Miami Beach over the weekend, creating a buzz among partygoers. The "Famous" rapper arrived at E11even early Sunday morning, donning a white scarf to cover his face and opting to go shoeless with only socks, according to an insider.

Entering through a VIP entrance around 2:30 a.m., West managed to go unnoticed by the crowd at first. He was escorted to a back table inside the VIP section of the venue, where he spent less than an hour with his entourage before departing. It was reported that wife Bianca Censori had given him a specific time limit for his night out.

Despite his brief presence, West managed to slip out of the nightclub before Lil Wayne's performance on stage. However, his friends remained at their table and continued to party until sunrise. Witnesses claim that West seemed to intentionally avoid drawing attention to himself and left the venue discreetly.

Amidst the speculation, there are rumors circulating that West is planning a listening party in Miami to showcase his new music. This move could potentially mark a comeback for the Grammy-winning artist, who has faced numerous controversies that have impacted his career and net worth.

Last year, West was embroiled in a firestorm after making antisemitic comments on social media and defending them multiple times. As a result, several brands severed ties with him, leading to a decline in his net worth. His documentary, produced by MRC, was scrapped, and he parted ways with his former agency, CAA. Additionally, his social media accounts were restricted due to his harmful rhetoric towards Jewish people.

Currently married to Bianca Censori after his divorce from Kim Kardashian, West has been maintaining a low profile. However, he recently faced backlash for being seen dancing to a track that contains offensive lyrics about Jews. Social media users criticized West and Chris Brown for spreading hate through their actions.

Despite maintaining a relatively low profile, West surprised many by appearing at the closing night of Miami's Art Week. Notable figures in attendance included Tom Brady, Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, and John Stamos, adding to the star-studded affair.

As West continues to navigate the aftermath of past controversies, his unexpected appearance in Miami resonates with fans and followers alike. Whether his rumored listening party will come to fruition remains to be seen, but for now, Kanye West's presence at Art Basel Miami Beach serves as a reminder of his enduring influence in the music and entertainment industry.
