Kanye West made a surprise appearance at the tail end of Art Basel Miami Beach over the weekend by rolling up to a jam-packed nightclub with no shoes on.
The “Famous” rapper arrived to hotspot E11even early Sunday morning wearing a white scarf around his face and socks with no shoes, an insider tells Page Six.
“He entered through a VIP entrance at around 2:30 a.m. and no one seemed to notice him,” the insider shares.
We hear Ye, 46, was escorted to a back table inside the VIP section of the venue where he sat with his entourage for less than an hour before leaving.
“He only stayed for 45 minutes,” the source says, adding that West was overheard saying that wife Bianca Censori “gave him an allotted amount of time he was allowed to stay out.”
West snuck out of the venue and was long gone before Lil Wayne took to the stage, though his friends remained at his table and continued to party until sunrise.
“No one seemed to notice he was there,” a partygoer tells us. “He was in and out and seemed like he didn’t want to be seen.”
We’re told there’s chatter that West has plans to throw a listening party in Miami to showcase new music.
Meanwhile, Weezy, 41, performed several of his hits at around 4 a.m. for the sold-out club and partied at a table with fellow rappers Tyga and Rich The Kid. Other notable partygoers included Brendan Fallis and artist WhIsBe.
The Grammy winner and Censori have been laying low following several controversies that caused the rapper’s career — and his net worth — to plummet.
Last year, West was infamously canceled after he spewed antisemitic comments on social media and several times after while defending his words.
He was dragged for tweeting that he wanted to go “death con 3 on Jewish people” and later said he wasn’t sorry for his hate-filled words.
The backlash caused several brands to cut ties with West including Balenciaga and Adidas — the latter of which made him lose his billionaire status.
His MRC-produced documentary was canned, he was dropped by his former agency, CAA, and his social media accounts had also been restricted as a result of his harmful rhetoric toward Jewish people.
West married Censori after his divorce from Kim Kardashian last year and the couple has been spending time in Italy. He and Censori have been staying relatively off the grid but have popped up here and there, many times without any shoes on.
Recently, West was back to angering the masses again when he was seen dancing to his new track that contains an offensive lyric about Jews last month.

He and Chris Brown were dragged after being caught dancing to West’s song “Vultures.” In the controversial song, West raps the lyrics, “How I’m antisemitic? I just f–ked a Jewish bitch.”
Social media users slammed West and Brown for spreading hatred, though the “Run It!” singer subsequently denied that he was antisemitic in several statements shared on Instagram.
West was most recently spotted in a Dubai hotel with Censori earlier this week so it came as a surprise that he emerged for the last night of Miami’s Art Week.
Other celebrities in town for the bash included Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Smith, John Stamos and more.
