Kanye West is doubling and tripling down on his anti-Jewish stand and has taken to Elon Musk‘s microblogging platform to do so.
The rapper went on a rant on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, and took jabs at Musk, defended his wife Bianca Censori from criticism of her Grammys look, and praised Hitler.
“I’m never apologizing for my Jewish comments,” West wrote in one of his many antisemitic posts. “I can say whatever the f**k I wanna say forever. Where’s my f***ing apology for freezing my accounts. Suck my d***. How’s that for an apology.”
In another post, West said, “I don’t even know what the f*** antisemitic means. It’s just some bullsh** Jewish people made up to protect their bullsh** was that the write there.”

West also claimed his love for Hitler, adding messages like “I’m a Nazi,” and “Hitler was sooooo fresh.”
“Elon stole my Nazi swag at the Inauguration,” West said in another post. “Yoooo my Guy, get your own third rale.”
In a post later, West noted, “I can say Jews as much as I want. I can say Hitler as much as I want. Matter fact, I do say it when I want.”
West also said he was “going to normalize talking about Hitler the way talking about killing n*** has been normalized.”
Following West’s antisemitic remarks, the American Jewish Committee issued a statement condemning the rapper.
“Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) continues to purposefully use his platform to spew anti-Jewish hatred. While some may dismiss his hateful rants, we cannot overlook the dangerous influence they can have on his millions of followers, particularly on social media, where a significant portion of today’s antisemitism thrives,” the AJC said in a statement. “Hate, left unchecked, only multiplies. At a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing to terrifying levels worldwide, Ye is actively endangering Jews. We urge others with a platform like Ye’s – particularly in the entertainment industry – to call out this blatant hatred.”
Kanye West on Bianca Censori’s Grammys Look
West’s wife, Bianca Censori, received a lot of criticism for her look at the Grammys. Censori wore a sheer dress that completely exposed her, with West taking aim at those critics in his X rant.
“Anyone who called my wife’s Grammy look a stunt is dumb and laaaame yes youuuu She been dressing naked for 2 years Now all of a sudden it’s a stunt,” West wrote. “Every single bitch on the planet wish they had her bravery body platform and access to money and a husband that supported they personal expression There are a lot of things that had to converge for this moment to happen.”
West also claimed to “have dominion over my wife,” adding, “This ain’t no woke as [sic] feminist sh**,” West wrote. “She’s with a billionaire. Why would she listen to any of you dumb a** broke bitches. People say the red carpet look was her decision. Yes, I don’t make her do anything she doesn’t want to but she definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without my approval you stupid a** woke pawns.”
