  Ye is an American rapper, songwriter, record producer and fashion designer. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential hip hop artists and producers. Born in Atlanta and raised in Chicago. Husband to reality star Kim Kardashian and father to four kids one being the TikTok icon North West. The hip-hop legend made headlines for all the wrong reasons when he showed up at Paris Fashion Week to stage a guerrilla fashion show related to his own YZY clothing line.

  This is the social media era, with the Internet currently home to millions of apps, websites, and other venues for individuals to communicate through media. Teenagers like myself are among the most frequent users of the majority of social networking websites. We spend a lot of time online, whether it's updating our Facebook status, tweeting a joke, or sharing a photo of our lunch on Instagram. Our culture is heavily reliant on social media. Recently, I've seen an increase in the number of people writing or publishing lengthy pieces on my Facebook feed on how social media harms teenagers. A lot of people appear to view social media and its impact on today's youngsters negatively. Don't get me wrong; there are a lot of drawbacks to today's kids having such unrestricted access to the Internet. There are countless ways for advertisers to control and sway us. For the majority of social media users, privacy is not really a choice. Additionally, the Internet has become a...

They are constantly trying out new things and learning on what they did not know at first. It has been said that “those who learn together stay together” and it is true to a certain extent. Because youth have great power of influence, when there are opportunities for them to showcase their talents, this will attract more people to join the workforce.

Although the youths are still young, but their work ethics are just getting into place. So, let us see some ways by which the youths can build the economy with online jobs. You...
