Restore your image at the dawn of a new album or real redemption? No one knows. Kanye West apologized on Tuesday, December 26, for the anti-Semitic remarks he made twice last year.

Your forgiveness is important to me and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity”he wrote.
Controversies
In December 2022, Kanye West (who now calls himself Ye) said “[adorer] the Nazis”on the set of Infowars – American show hosted by far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Before bidding : “I see positive things about Hitler.” The artist then posted a tweet in which he expressed his desire to attack Jews in the future. Comments which cost him his partnership with Adidas, in October 2022, and his X account (ex-Twitter).
If he apologizes today, Kanye West had already stated, last March, “love the Jewish people” again. “No one should turn their anger towards one or two individuals into hatred towards millions of innocent people”he declared on Instagram, after watching 21 Jump Street – a film in which Jonah Hill, a Jewish actor, plays. “No Christian can be called anti-Semitic knowing that Jesus is Jewish. Thank you Jonah Hill, I love you”concluded the rapper.
