Kanye West has apologized to the Jewish community for his many previous antisemitic remarks that have caused pain to a lot of people over the past year.
In the early hours of Tuesday (December 26) morning, Yeezy took to his recently-reactivated Instagram account to post an apology written in Hebrew. West promised that he is “committed to making amends” with the Jewish community.
“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions,” the apology reads in English. “It was not my intention to hurt or demean, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.
“I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding more in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me, and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity.”
While some in the comments appreciated Kanye’s olive branch toward the Jewish community, Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg continued to be critical of Ye. “Should I not mention that typing this apology in Hebrew in and of itself is still sort of oddly anti Semitic?” he wrote. “I guess not .. let’s roll with it lol.”
Michael Rapaport suggested that West take a trip to Israel himself, commenting: “Start by going to ISRAEL immediately & speak to families of Hostages & witness the devastation with your own eyes.”

Kanye West’s string of antisemitic comments began in October 2022 when he claimed on Twitter he was going to go “Death Con 3 on Jewish people.” Def Jam, adidas, Gap and other companies quickly severed ties with the Chicago-bred mogul.
He then appeared on Alex Jones’ Infowars show in December 2022 where he alleged that he “saw good things about Hitler.”
West enflamed his relationship with the Jewish community when he rapped about how he had sexual relations with a “Jewish bitch” on his new single “Vultures.”
He and Ty Dolla $ign are headed toward the release of their Vulture joint project which has been delayed and is now slated to arrive in January.
Kanye West spent Christmas in Los Angeles, pulling up to the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics game at Crypto.com Arena on Monday afternoon (December 25) with his kids North, Saint and Chicago as well as his wife Bianca and some of her family members.
This dusty ass slob 🤣
The thing about Ye is he’s not going to ride with us. He’s just going to do what he feels is best for himself. Obviously he knows what the community feels about the industry. But he’s not going to make an real sacrifices. He’s always going to run back to zaddy as that is his true nature. He has nothing without their industry propping him up.

whatever happened to him is his own fault. If he has become a political weirdo that’s on him no one else. on the one hand it was brave for him to publicly reject BLM talking points as “zionist” inspired lunacy designed to break and divide our community as it’s true. On the other hand siding with historical villains and spreading their hateful messages isn’t anything close to helping our community. Ye needs to take a long break.
If Black Lives Matter divided the Black Community, it just proves that Black folks will let anything and everything divide them. Even an organization founded to defend Black life.
Basically Ye HAD to apologize or his album would never see the light of day. You can’t fight the industry power brokers …..
Thanks for the apology. People do not plan to forget his words and actions on the topic. And now Ty Dolla is wrapped up in this nonsense over money and extra fame.
You just don’t want to go around waving an old german flag stomping around in docs and a frown thinking Ye gonna have your back lol. He will be back in everyone’s good books soon enough – even Rappaport – but everyone else in the hood who was vocal about supporting his idiocy will be on their list forever. Just saying
Anything for publicity. What’s next? Killing a man to get plays? Fuck off kanye.
Basically, dude’s album is not popping. So, he needs more money. Hahaha
try spreading peace, goodwill and joy in OTHER FOLKS communities and see if your street rep changes at all
No apology to his own people though. He gives zero fcks how Black folks feel. He knows we don’t give af how we treat each other, and he can disrespect us with the Klan outfits, Confederate Flags, White Lives Matter, Slavery was a choice comments and endless White girlfriends and we’ll support him anyway. We’re are own worst enemy. Until he apologizes to Black folks he still ain’t sh-t.
he has no need to apologize to any “black” folks. if you choose to see yourself as “black” then you have chosen slavery. nothing you can do about your complexion or background. but that’s all it is. not a lifestyle choice. your nonsense definition of black is what we mean by “choosing slavery”
You got up on your horse so high you couldn’t even respond appropriately to the original post. And recognizing that you are a black man or woman is not choosing slavery, get back to planet earth.
Nah b. You are getting it all wrong. Black folks sold slaves to other black folks who then sold them to white slavers who they had traded with for decades before. We do not know if this was an Australia type situation or what. But we know there has never been a large scale colonization of Africa where they just shipped out people without permission. These are facts
All of that is 🧢.
Rapaport should make it his business to come to trodden down hoods where the lost sheep live with know identity of self…cause black isn’t a nationality. We are the Hebrews. The lost sheep of house of Israel. We must also do away with that derogatory connotation of the word Black that we are so custom of calling ourselves. Witches wear black vampires wear black villains wear black customarily when you attend a funeral you wear black. The word Black is cursed why? you might ask…cause words carry power words are a vibration. The color Black is beautiful. It’s the definition that gives it such a low vibration.
