Kanye West has sparked yet another controversy.

It appears that the US rapper did not take the harsh criticism he received from netizens after wearing a White Lives Matter shirt to his Paris Yeezy fashion show seriously.

According to TMZ, Ye wore the shirt again, this time at his daughter North's basketball game.

North was playing alongside other kids whose parents were seated watching the game at Thousand Oaks when her father was spotted wearing the controversial long-sleeve shirt.

Netizens share their reactions

People expressed their disappointment on Twitter immediately after the news broke. Many people accused Kanye of being selfish for turning his daughter's basketball game into a media circus.

They had this to say about Kanye's latest stunt:

@KateyAmae said:

"Gross. Never be this desperate for attention. He'll dance for whoever he thinks will validate and praise him. I'm sorry for North having to deal with a narcissistic father who can't let her have her space to shine."

"This dude is clearly not well."

@fyungong reacted:

"Y’all really think that’s okay? It's His daughter's basketball game and he makes it about himself."
