How tall is Kanye West? Rapper has always picked girlfriends shorter than him

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: American rapper Kanye West (now known as Ye) is a prominent name in the music industry and pop culture. His recent public split from his now ex-wife Kim Kardashian, his larger-than-life personality, and his artistic talents have elevated him to more fame than ever.

Some fans could be taken aback by the rapper's height due to his colossal star power. Given Ye's already prominent presence, the rapper can easily flaunt high shoes, padded shoes, or everyday, simple things - and no one cares.

How tall is Kanye West?

According to Celeb Heights, Kanye West's height is 5 ft 8 in (172 cm), which may come as a surprise given how he always commands attention in each space he enters.

Along with that, he is constantly the center of attention due to his public masks or his conflicts such as the recent one with Peppa Pig. West is undoubtedly a celebrity who consistently attracts attention.

Without those enormous boots, Kanye West's actual height of 5 ft 8 in (172 cm) is a little short as the average height for an adult American man is 5 ft 9 in (175 cm).

However, for those who are constantly surrounded by fashion, like Kanye, height is seldom a major issue, with fashion tips and tricks to make one look taller or shorter whenever required.

Kanye West's height compared to other rappers

Although Jay-Z and West haven't gotten along in a very long time due to some personal problems and opposing political ideologies, Jay-Z had always been an inspiration to West when he was younger. Jay-Z is far taller than West, standing at 6 ft 2 in (188 cm) over a 5 ft 8 in (172 cm) man.

Kanye West and 2 Chainz collaborated on the song 'Mercy', in which 2 Chainz boasted about being "money tall like [Michael] Jordan." Interestingly, 2 Chainally taller than Michael Jordan as well as Ye, towering over at 6 ft 5 in (196 cm).

Also, Kanye West's height falls short in front of Rick Ross, who openly talked about his heavyweight when he first entered the rap scene. Perhaps he can begin rapping about his 5 ft 11 in (180 cm) height while West is as good as 5 ft 8 in (172 cm).

When it comes to one of Ye's friends-turned-foes, Drake's name should top the list and we will compare their heights as well. Along with dominating the rest of his rap competition contemporaries, Drake also towers over most rappers including West in person due to his height of 6 ft (183 cm).

Speaking of rap's greatest-ever performers, Eminem is as tall as Kanye West, standing at 5 ft 8 in, and is regarded as one of the finest rappers of all time.

Looking at other GOATs in rap, it is impossible for us to have this discussion without bringing up Lil Wayne. At 5 ft 5 in, Lil Wayne is shorter than Kanye West head-on.

How tall is Kanye West's ex-wife Kim Kardashian?

Kim Kardashian West has a height of 5 ft 2 in (157 cm). The Skims founder may appear taller in photographs, but that's probably because she frequently dons high heels.

It doesn't appear like Kim and West are significantly different in height because of her heels. However, the 'Donda' rapper is six inches taller than his now-divorced spouse.

How tall is Bianca Censori?

When comparing Kanye West's height with his former wife, we must delve into the rapper's current wife Bianca Censori's height as well. Many people have brought up Censori's height, especially when she is paired with West.

Censori is 5 ft 4 in (163 cm) tall, defying some assumptions and assertions made by multiple sources, whereas West is 5 ft 8 in (172 cm) tall.

Kanye West is almost as tall as ex Julia Fox

According to Celeb Portal, Italian-American actress Fox stands tall at 5 ft 7 in (170 cm), which is just one inch shorter than ex-Kanye West's height. The 'Uncut Gems' actor dated the rapper for a brief time period to distract West from harassing Kim, as per People magazine.
