The rapper who hired private firefighters to protect his $60million mansion during the California wildfires has reportedly donated $500,000 to the Californian Fire Relief fund.
This comes after the rapper donated $150,000 to the heartbroken family of Chicago security guard, Jemel Roberson, who police shot dead after they mistook him as a shooter.
According to TMZ, Kim told host Ellen DeGeneres, the couple had a ‘serious discussion’ on how to help the community and Kanye came up with a plan of action.
