Kanye West called himself Hitler and was abusive towards a Jewish ex-employee, according to a new lawsuit.
Filed shortly after Kanye’s lengthy antisemitic rant on social media this past weekend, the suit claims that the rap legend made similar remarks to a former Yeezy staff member over text.
The anonymous woman accuses West of discrimination, retaliation, creating a hostile work environment and breach of contract.
She claims that she began working for Kanye in 2023 as a marketing specialist but things began to go south the following year when his Vultures 1 album was criticized for its antisemitic lyrics.
After telling her boss he should put out a statement condemning Nazism, West allegedly responded: “I am a Nazi.”
The plaintiff also claims that the G.O.O.D. Music founder disparaged several Jewish employees over text message and wrote: “Welcome to the first day of working for Hitler.”
He is further alleged to have insulted the woman’s appearance, calling her “ugly,” describing her clothes and hair as “trash” and referring to her as a “corny ass bitch.”

She claims that she made a complaint about Kanye but was fired a day later.
The rapper and his legal team have yet to respond to the lawsuit.
The fallout to Kanye’s aforementioned social media tirade, as well as his decision to sell a T-shirt with a swastika logo, has been swift.
His Yeezy.com website has been shut down by Shopify, while he has also been dropped by his talent agency.
Ye’s X (formerly Twitter) account has also been taken down, but it is not clear if he was banned from the platform or if he deactivated it himself.
In a hailstorm of posts that began last Thursday (February 6), Kanye declared his support for Diddy, who is currently in jail awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges, and called on Donald Trump to free him.
His rant then grew increasingly inflammatory as he declared that he is “racist” and a “Nazi” who “loves Hitler,” while dismissing the very notion of antisemitism.
“IM NEVER APOLOGIZING FOR MY JEWISH COMMENTS. I CAN SAY WHATEVER THE FUCK I WANNA SAY FOREVER. WHERES MY FUCKING APOLOGY FOR FREEZING MY ACCOUNTS. SUCK MY DICK. HOWS THAT FOR AN APOLOGY,” he wrote, referencing his past antisemitic remarks which led to the termination of his once-lucrative partnership with adidas.
Put this clown im the same cell as Puff Daddy and swallow the key. How can a punk name his album Bully? LMAO
Who cares? More capitalist nonsense. All of these people are talentless clowns. White billionaires keep them in the spotlight. Why would I care what Kanye does in his business. This entire site will be liquidated soon enough. Free speech is a joke. this is all billionaire capitalist propaganda fake news designed to spread racial hate and confusion. it doesn’t have to make sense just cause a reaction remember that
Ye’dolf should put all of this energy into making better music
Ye likes butt stuff too. That’s why he and Diddy get along. His wife is a beard just to make him look less gay in public. Ye can’t fight his gayfish nature
