As Kanye West steadily loses supporters for the hate speech he’s been spewing on multiple platforms, a UK tattoo studio is lending a helping hand to former super fans.
London’s Naama Studios announced in November that they’d remove any Ye tattoos free of charge, captioning their announcement with: “Yeezy come, yeezy go.”
The studio has already had people taking it up on its offer, as Naama later shared a video removing Kanye ink on a young woman.
“When you have a tattoo inspired by someone you admire and they end up making headlines for all the wrong reasons… at NAAMA we offer an empowering, empathetic, high-tech tattoo clearing experience,” the company offered the video of the tattoo removal. “If you want a change, we’re here to help.”
Earlier this week, Kanye was suspended from Twitter once again after posting a swastika – shortly after praising Hitler and the Nazis in an interview.
“I tried my best,” Twitter CEO Elon Musk tweeted in response to a fan asking him to “fix” Kanye. “Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended.”
Peers and former collaborators including the likes of Jamie Foxx, Mike Dean and Questlove have also spoken out against Kanye, condemning him for his Hitler praise on Alex Jones’ InfoWars podcast.
“Genius does not mean smart,” Questlove wrote on Twitter on Thursday (December 1). His tweet was reposted on Instagram by The Shade Room, where Foxx entered the comments section.
“Say it louder for the people in the back,” Foxx, who worked with Kanye on 2004’s “Slow Jamz,” wrote. “But for whatever reason we keep giving these so-called geniuses the microphone.”
Mike Dean reposted a message from Swedish House Mafia’s Steve Angello on his Instagram page, making Kanye West’s “Power” the soundtrack to his post in an apparent effort to make his intended audience clear.
“When media attention becomes more important than life itself you’re on a slippery slope, saying provocative things to trigger social media for clicks and action is pathetic, sitting there triggering the minds of less-educated adults to spread your thoughts like a virus shows pure evil,” the message read.
“There are people out there on this earth doing incredible things for us humans that deserve all the attention we give idiots, let’s lift good people doing good things. People that actually contribute to make this a better place.”
It continued: “We live now, not yesterday, not tomorrow, we live right now but whatever you do today will effect your future and in a couple of years this day is called the past, so use every day as the day that will define your legacy and contribution as a human being, we’re all in this together. Life is short.”
Both Busta Rhymes and T.I. were found agreeing in the comments.
This is so corny ..all this extra effort
Sorry bro people just don’t want to support nazis. Dude was indeed someone to aspire to be at one point.
That’s nice, but removing a someone’s mouth from Gimpye’s d*ck—for free—is more challenging.
A train wreck alright. I am just trying to work out wtf why he has been saying these things. He wouldn’t fuck over his own career would he wtf is with kanye just throwing it all away homey. We should try and reach out and try to understand why he saying these things
You’re asking the wrong questions Tony. Watch Chappelle’s Clayton Bigsby sketch and then watch a Trump speech and you’ll crack the code. Dumb questions deserve stupid answers.
I am not dumb.
Small hats can suck six million dixxx.
Who fucking cares tho? Srsly who the fuck comes here to read about tattoo removal deals. Hhdx be bugging with these articles. Out of all the things you could write about… srsly wtf happened to this site
My question is who the hell would get a Kanye tatoo. Not MLK, Malcom X, hell Obama even but Kanye??? It’s pathetic how much people worship celebrities.
MLK and X make sense… but Obama? Dude was hand picked by “the system” for his role. No revolutionary, or even a guy who followed through on promises. Although I believe MLK was backed by Rothchilds and such. Not sure about Malcom X, I think he was actually seen as a danger to the system. Very interesting figure he was.
Obama wasn’t perfect but name me a politician who is. At the end of the day he was the first black president so I can respect people who broke down barriers. MLK was killed for the same reason as Malcom X, Fred Hampton and Ghandi. Peace and unity is considered a bigger threat than hate speech.
he wasn’t the first black president there were in fact 7 black president before obama if i remember and let me do some research on this again i think the first 6 presidents of this country if history serves me correct and study shows were in fact biracial now school don’t tell you thank but jefferson, lincoln, jackson, eisenhower, coolidge, harding after doing research their family hertiage were black some indian they ancestors also were either 100% african american or mixed
Its amazing how the masses follow however the media wants them to feel about a certain situation. I bet half the people cancelling Ye have never even met one of the non religious, corporate industry self-proclaimed jewish people Kanye is talking about. I know the religious jews are all laughing at this saying “its a religion, not a race”. I should know, I once asked a Rabbi myself and he told me its a religion.
Lmao. Jokes on whoever got a Kanye tat to begin with. I get those who get tata of deceased legends… but to get a tattoo of a living rapper… you’re a special kind of person.
