Kanye West has made a surprise U-turn and claimed that he no longer considers himself a Nazi.
A week after declaring his support for Hitler and saying that he identified as a Nazi in a lengthy antisemitic tirade on social media, the controversial rapper has distanced himself from the far-right ideology.
In an update his 33 million X followers on Wednesday (February 19), Ye wrote: “After further reflection I’ve come to the realization that I’m not a Nazi.”
While he did not divulge what that reflection was, it appears we may have Adam Sandler to thank for the change of heart.

During Saturday Night Live‘s 50th anniversary celebration this past weekend, the actor and comedian, who is Jewish, appeared to reference Kanye while performing a song about the show’s history.
“50 years of finding out your favorite musician is antisemitic,” he joked.
Ye appeared to enjoy the shoutout and responded on X: “Adam Sandler Thank you for the love.”
Adam Sandler Thank you for the love

Despite his claime that he no longer identifies as a Nazi, Kanye West just recently sold T-shirts adorned with a swastika logo and went on a rant about the Jewish community that lasted several days.
During his hailstorm of tweets, the Chicago native said he is “racist” and a “Nazi” who “loves Hitler.”
“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.
“BE CLEAR YOU JEWISH N-GGAS DONT RUN ME NO MORE. THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY AND THIS IS MY FREE OPINION. YOU ABORT BLACK CHILDREN FOR STEM CELLS. ABORTION IS MURDER AND ITS PUSHED ONTO THE BLACK AND LATINO COMMUNITIES.”
Kanye’s explosive outburst also included a reference to Elon Musk’s Nazi salute at Donald Trump’s inauguration: “ELON STOLE MY NAZI SWAG AT THE INAUGURATION. YOOOO MY GUY. GET YOUR OWN THIRD RALE.”
The rap legend’s decision to sell swastika T-shirts also led to his Yeezy website being shut down by Shopify.
Exactly I love Adam Sandler his movies are mostly great even the ones people hate
That doesn’t cover the zionists. Besides Adolf is a African politician of course you love him. Yeezy website needs to get back online.
Zionist blah blah blah only word I learned via Google search blah blah blah blah Africans blah blah blah make me angry blah blah blah I’m insecure blah blah blah
Zionists mad as usual. Suburb black kid or white get out real ones commenting here
Suburban black kids and whites (including Zionists!) are Kanye’s only fans! If you are neither, then I will deduct you to a pretentious sellout minority!
Silence, you Caucasian Black Zionist conservative hypocritical liberal antichristian socialist Islamic antisemitic xenophobic extremist Asian Canadian Buddhist atheist hypersexual crybaby karen. Go play in traffic like a good Lil girl boy you are.
White Power is dead. Green Power aka 🤑 is alive and well

People don’t get Ye. He’s a genius this guy is always ahead of everyone.
Facts. All this shit is to do exactly what it’s doing, stir up shit. Lmao.
Idk, I don’t think it’s stirring the pot. Nobody I know got outraged by Kanye recently. They just go “oh yeah, dudes a mental case”. Now, Trump jokingly referring to himself as a King? Hits hilarious and drives people nut, and considering the context (his admin canceled NYC charging drivers to drive on roads paid for over 85 years ago) it’s even funnier.
His name is Ye not Kanye check your headlines
stfu bitch
No one cares you dumb British word for bundle of sticks or cigarette.
Be glad when they find his cold dead body slumped over from a drug overdose
My name means Sodomy Is Satisfying Obviously
“Far right ideology”? Smh. Please tell me you’re not that stupid. Wow! This Sam Moore guy who wrote this article is a lost and gullible idiot. Not to mention a deplorable Libtard.
This dude is nuts. Typical bi-polar BS. He’s still a self hating antisemite. Fck that 🥷
