Kanye
Kanye refers to Kanye West, the American rapper, producer, and fashion designer whose cultural influence made his first name instantly recognizable.
The name often appears in discussions of artistic genius, erratic behavior, or controversial public statements: He's going full Kanye on Twitter again.
To pull a Kanye is to interrupt or behave outrageously in public, from his 2009 interruption of Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards.
