Kanye West has claimed that he is no longer antisemitic.
On X, West appeared to declare that he had reversed course on his rhetoric which has frequently taken aim at Jews and braised Nazism and Hitler.
He wrote: “I am done with antisemitism.”
West added: “I love all people,” and “God forgive me for the pain I’ve caused.”
I am done with antisemitism

The posts are radically different in tone to most of West’s statements throughout 2025 which have seen him embrace Neo-Nazism and antisemitism.

The announcement comes shortly after the release of “Heil Hitler” which was planned to be on West’s new album Cuck which has cover artwork featuring two Ku Klux Klan members embracing.
“Heil Hitler” features West double down on claims that he is being stopped from seeing his four children.
He raps: “With all this money and fame, I still can’t get my kids back / With all this money and fame I still can’t see my children.”
West also raps: “I became a Nazi yet bitch, I’m the villain,” before the song goes into a refrain of “N-gga, Heil Hitler.”

The song had previously been removed from streaming services, likely due to its content.
West hit out at the removal on social media, writing: “Kanye West’s ‘Heil Hitler’ Removed From All Streaming Platforms.”
He also accused platforms of double standards, citing Randy Newman’s controversial song “Rednecks” which features frequent use of the N-word as an example.

West wrote: “While Rednecks by Randy Newman remains streamable They’re literally keeping the n-ggas down.”
Some fans also pointed to other songs such as John Lennon’s “Woman is the N-gger of the World” as another example of hypocrisy by the various streaming companies.
Streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music are yet to comment.
The video for the track features an all Black group of men standing in formation, most of them wearing animal skins over their heads and shoulders and they repeatedly chant “N-gga Heil Hitler,” for the song’s hook.

A previous version of the song featured a diss aimed at Drake with West rapping: “N-ggas be acting like f-ggots, I think they might be Drake.”
