Some of the guest performers at the event included Chris Brown, Lil Durk, Freddie Gibbs, Kodak Black, and Offset.
As for the black KKK hood, it's far from the first time that Kanye has used controversial imagery to make some sort of statement.
He wore a White Lives Matter shirt at his Paris fashion show last year, which The Anti-Defamation League says is "a white supremacist phrase that originated in early 2015."
Ye was also accused of turning his back on Black people when he began supporting Donald Trump years ago and wore a Make America Great Again hat.
He's been nearly canceled for making racist statements against the Jewish community as well.
