Controversial American rapper Kanye West apologized to Jews (5 photos)

He was accused of anti-Semitism more than once and decided to justify himself in Hebrew.





Kanye West is a shocking musician and a lover of loud statements. For example, when all of America was on edge with the BLM movement, he came out wearing a T-shirt with the words “White Lives Matter.”



Last year he gave an interview and suddenly started talking about Jews and Hitler. According to him, they already need to forget about the horrors of Nazism and move on with their lives:

Jews cannot tell me who I can love and who I cannot love. You can't force your pain on everyone else. Today the Jewish people must forgive Hitler.

The rapper went wild and added that Jews are offended because “Hitler expelled them from the country.” And I noticed that they control most of the media, banks and big businesses.

Either he wanted to “hype”, or something else, the reaction of society was not natural: almost all advertisers refused to cooperate with the rapper (and this meant the loss of contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars), then his accounts began to be banned on social networks. The artist was accused of inciting hatred, anti-Semitism and nationalism.

This could be the end of West's career. But he made another statement - a year later he apologized for his previous statements. One of his accounts was finally unblocked and the musician issued a post in Hebrew:



I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintentional outburst caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to cause pain or disrespect and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused. I intend to start with myself and learn from this experience so that I can feel and understand more in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me and I am ready to atone and promote unity.



Whether he will be able to return to big business after this and again turn over millions is unknown.
