Cardi B Fires Back At Hater After Going Off On Her Fans

Cardi B has been on a digital rampage. The “Bodak Yellow” rapper had a lot to say to her supporters and detractors on X (formerly Twitter) over the last several days.

A highly publicized breakup with Offset played a role in Cardi B’s meltdown. After calling out her fans on Spaces for assuming she reunited with her estranged husband, the Bronx native turned her attention to a hater.

“Don’t u have kids to feed?” one X user asked Cardi on the social media platform. The 31-year-old recording artist fired back, “They [are] fed, bathed and rich… NEXT.” Her tweet collected over 17,000 likes and 1.9 million views.

The speculation about a possible reconciliation with Offset began after the couple spent time together with their children for the Christmas holidays. Additionally, false reports recently claimed the “Jealousy” collaborators had officially gotten back together.

A few hours after her clapback post, Cardi focused on her Bardi Gang fanbase again. She posted, “I must be a lil toxic cuz I enjoyed cursing ya out today… but we not taking that into 2024. Now have a good day. No, make it a bad day!”

Cardi B will bring in the New Year with a performance on ABC’s Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2024. The Grammy winner’s segment for the televised celebration will air from the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel.

Offset will also be in South Florida for New Year’s Eve. The Set It Off album creator has a gig scheduled at Fontainebleau’s LIV club the same night. According to reports, both Hip-Hop stars were booked before the separation.

Westside Gunn, Conway & Alchemist Celebrate Holidays With “Hall & Nash 2” OG Version

Westside Gunn, Conway the Machine and Alchemist gave fans a belated Christmas gift by releasing the original version of Hall and Nash 2 on Friday (December 29). The trio intended to drop the project years ago, but Griselda’s deal with Shady Records changed their plans. Alchemist explained the story behind Hall and Nash 2 when he revealed the OG version’s release on Instagram.

“When I first linked with @westsidegunn & @whoisconway, the original plan was to do a Hall and Nash 2 tape,” Alchemist wrote. “From the first day in the lab, I knew I needed these guys on my beats more than they needed my beats. The s### was coming out crazy, they linked with @groovyq one day at my spot and made one, we knew we had something good.”

He continued, “While we were finishing the project, they signed their deal with Shady. We ended up changing the plan to drop H&N2 and over time used some of the songs for different things, but a handful of songs never came out and the original version of the album was never released. Now for the first time, the OG version of Hall and Nash 2 will be released … Collectors item for the day ones.”

Alchemist also teased fans by announcing an official follow-up to Westside Gunn and Conway’s Hall and Nash EP, which dropped in 2016. The acclaimed producer said he was working on the sequel with longtime Griselda producer Daringer.

“Next year me @daringer_ Wes & Conway already cooking an official HALL and NASH 2,” Alchemist wrote. “u have been warned.”

Vinyl, CD and cassette copies of the OG Hall and Nash 2 are on sale at Alchemist’s website. The nine-track project is available to stream on Apple Music, Spotify and more.

Cardi B Berates Her Fans Over Offset Reunion Rumors

Cardi B vehemently denied speculation about her reconciling with her estranged husband Offset on Friday (December 29). The Atlantic Records artist lambasted her fans for spreading the rumor on social media in a rant on X (formerly known as Twitter) Spaces.

“Shut the f### up!” Cardi B said. “Bout to delete my whole social media because y’all don’t shut the f### up. And it’s the same f###### dumb—my own f###### fan base. The last time I got dragged was because my f###### fan base. I don’t see nobody talking s### but my own f###### fan base.”

Cardi B believed her fans were disrespecting her over the reunion rumor. The diamond-selling rapper questioned why they assumed she got back with her husband after the two spent time together during the holidays.

“Stupid ass m############, I’m about to f###### unfollow all of y’all ‘cause that’s all I see: y’all talking s### on my timeline,” she said. “I’m searching my name. I’m trying to see if anybody else talking s###. Nobody else talking s### but y’all. So, shut the f### up! All over my s###. Shut up!”

She continued, “Y’all heard something out of my mouth? B####, y’all heard I’m back with a n#### out my mouth? No! S### is f###### annoying. For f###### three days, y’all been doing the same s###. Did I say I was back together with somebody? I say that? Did ya heard that? Did I say it? Did he say it? No!”

Earlier this month, Cardi B revealed she’s been “single for a minute now” amid rumors of Offset cheating. The two have been married since 2017, but their relationship has gone through some rocky moments. Cardi B notably filed for divorce in 2020. The couple quickly reconciled as Cardi B called off the divorce one month after the filing.

Tupac Shakur Murder Case: Prosecutors Strike Back At Keefe D’s Bid To Get Out Of Jail

Prosecutors asked a Nevada judge to reject Keefe D’s request for bail in the Tupac Shakur murder case. According to the Associated Press, prosecutors said Keefe D “confessed over and over again that he is responsible for the murder” in a court filing on Thursday (December 28).

“Now, finally, facing the consequences of his actions, [Davis] asks this court to ignore his words,” prosecutors wrote. “[He] was the shot caller.”

Keefe D, whose real name is Duane Davis, wanted to be released on house arrest while he awaits trial. He sought bail of no more than $100,000.

A bail hearing is scheduled for Tuesday (January 2). Keefe D’s lawyers said he was not a flight risk and posed no danger to the community. They urged a judge to release him due to health concerns. They noted he was diagnosed with colon cancer, but it was in remission.

“His diet and lack of exercise in the jail, given his age and medical history, is negatively impacting his health,” the defense argued.

Prosecutors thought Keefe D’s years of stories about his alleged involvement in Tupac’s murder were enough to keep him in jail. They pointed to him incriminating himself in interviews, a tell-all book and conversations with police. Keefe D’s lawyers insisted his book and interviews were nothing more than “entertainment.”

Keefe D was arrested for Tupac’s murder in September 2023. The former gang leader pleaded not guilty to murder with a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang.

Tupac was shot in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996. He passed away a few days later on September 13, 1996.

Prosecutors did not believe Keefe D was the shooter but accused him of orchestrating the murder. His nephew Orlando Anderson, who died in 1998, was long considered the prime suspect.

Chaka Khan Ends Kanye West Beef; Says She Better Understands Rap Game Now

Chaka Khan moved on from her feud with Kanye West, who famously sampled her for his breakthrough single “Through the Wire.” The legendary singer told Rolling Stone her issues with Ye were a thing of the past as she was not “hanging on to any silly grudges” about the sample anymore.

“That was my fault, too, for feeling salty about that in any way,” Chaka Khan said. “Because if I understood the rap game more completely, like I do now, then that wouldn’t have been a big deal to me.”

Kanye received Chaka’s permission to sample her song “Through the Fire,” but she did not realize her voice would be sped up on his track. Chaka publicly complained about the alteration of her voice, noting how the experience changed the way she responded to sample requests. She most recently expressed her displeasure with Kanye’s “Through the Wire” in a 2022 interview with Good Day DC.

“I was upset about sounding like a chipmunk ’cause he didn’t put that when he asked could he sample my song,” she told Good Day DC. “He didn’t mention that he was going to speed it up three times its normal speed. Had he, I would’ve had something to say. But since I didn’t think of that, believe me, I think of it now. [Regarding samples] I ask, ‘How are we gonna do this?'”

Good Day DC asked Chaka if she ever heard from Kanye after she aired out her grievance with him. According to the Queen of Funk, he never reached out to her.

“No,” she said. “I’m not looking to hear from Kanye either. I’ve not heard from him and I’m not looking to hear from him. That’s what he did. That’s what he did with his music.”

Lil Mabu Addresses Claims He Used “N-Word” In “Teach Me How To Drill” With Fivio Foreign

Lil Mabu and Fivio Foreign linked up for the “Teach Me How To Drill” collaboration. The two New Yorkers presently have the top trending music video on YouTube.

“Teach Me How To Drill” gained traction online after its December 21 release. In particular, a lyrical exchange between Mabu and Fivio caused outlets to suggest the Caucasian rapper used the n-word.

Lil Mabu has reacted to the speculation about his supposed word usage on the track. The 18-year-old Upper East Side, Manhattan native commented on Instagram, “Someone please defend me [raised fist emoji].”

One section of “Teach Me How To Drill” caught listeners’ attention. Some people questioned if one of Lil Mabu’s lines included the former private high school student using a potentially offensive term.

“He look like a singer, but white boy’ll get up on ’em/He can’t say the word, I’ma say it for him,” Fivio Foreign raps. Mabu adds, “You not the biggest, I’m bigger. You just a broke lil…” Fivio continues, “N####.”

Lil Mabu jumps back in to say, “And I’m young and I’m richer/Five bands on a fit/Five bands on a fit, but your pillow lookin’ like a tea bag…” Fivio closes out the bar by again saying, “N####.”

Other Instagram users did defend Mabu. One person wrote, “U ain’t say it. [face with tears of joy emoji]. They tryna play n yo face.” Another commenter chimed in, “We know you didn’t say it [face with tears of Joy emoji] don’t worry.”

Lil Mabu started turning heads with 2022’s “Throw” featuring DD Osama. The Billboard Hot 100-charting “Mathematical Disrespect” followed in May. Mabu also scored another Hot 100 entry in November with “Mr. Take Ya B*tch” featuring Chrisean Rock.

The official “Teach Me How To Drill music video has amassed more than 7.7 million YouTube views in seven days. Lil Mabu and Fivo Foreign’s joint effort collected roughly 1.7 million plays on Spotify so far.

Denzel Curry Blasts President Joe Biden

Denzel Curry has an explicit take on Joe Biden. The Miami Gardens-bred rapper used his social media platform to slam the current President of the United States.

“F### Joe Biden,” Denzel Curry tweeted on Thursday (December 28). Moments later, he also shouted himself out by posting, “Zel for president 2024.”

Curry did not go into detail on why he chose to blast Biden at this time. The POTUS has been under fire for several reasons in recent weeks, including for his support of Israel’s bombing of the Gaza Strip.

Joe Biden also had many members of the Hip-Hop community shaking their heads after he botched LL Cool J’s name during a Congressional Black Caucus event in September. However, rap legend MC Lyte defended the Democratic politician for his mistake.

Despite his negative comment about Joe Biden on X, Denzel Curry has also criticized Biden’s main political opponent in the past. A 2017 interview featured the “Ultimate” performer sharing his opinion of then-President Donald Trump.

“I felt like I was part of the problem honestly. Being disillusioned and thinking, ‘Nah, that’s not gonna happen, this n#### ain’t gonna be president.’ Then this n#### became president. So what the f### just happened?” Curry stated about the Republican MAGA leader.

Denzel Curry also added, “I don’t get all the choices I want, but I definitely didn’t want this n#### to be my president. Now I’m forced to write this. That’s how I felt like at the time. I’m not a super-political n####, but at the same time, I’m going to voice my opinion to people in my age group.”

Donald Glover Teases New Childish Gambino Album To Drop Soon

Donald Glover is an award-winning actor. The Atlanta native is also an award-winning recording artist known as Childish Gambino.

Fans of Childish Gambino have not gotten a new album from the rapper since 2020’s 3.15.20. That project followed 2011’s Camp, 2013’s Because the Internet and 2016’s “Awaken, My Love!”

It appears Gambino is ready to release another body of work shortly. During a brief conversation with TMZ, the 40-year-old entertainer teased a musical comeback.

“Another album,” Childish Gambino answered when asked what he has coming up next. In addition, the former Community star told the cameraperson a new collection of tunes would arrive “soon.”

While it has been three years since Gambino dropped his last album, he has remained active in Hollywood. For example, he co-created the Swarm series for Amazon Prime Video.

Additionally, Donald Glover will produce and star in Amazon Prime Video’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith television remake. His previous TV work includes the production of the Emmy-winning Atlanta.

Childish Gambino has won five Grammy Awards during his career. The Recording Academy named “This Is America” as Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year in 2019.

“This Is America” also received the award for Best Rap/Sung Performance. Gambino won his first Grammy in 2018 when “Redbone” scored a victory in the Best Traditional R&B Performance category.

Ty Dolla $ign Fully Embraces Kanye West Collaborative Album With ¥$ Tattoo

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign, collectively known as ¥$, joined forces to create the forthcoming Vultures studio LP. Apparently, Ty wants the world to know he’s fully on board with the alliance.

The two musicians’ collaborative album is currently scheduled to come out on January 12, 2024. Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign prepare to drop the project as Ye makes headlines for apologizing to the Jewish community.

While some Jewish organizations and Jewish media figures refused to accept West’s apology, Ty Dolla $ign continues to promote his partnership with the controversial rapper.

Ty took to his Instagram Story on Thursday (December 28) to share a photo of a new ¥$ tattoo on his face. The R&B singer also had the “Vultures” single playing on the post.

The “Vultures” collaboration arrived on November 22. Chicago-bred rappers Bump J and Lil Durk appear as featured artists. Kanye West faced backlash for some of his lyrics on the song.

“How I’m anti-semitic? I just f##### a Jewish b####,” raps Kanye West on the “Vultures” title track. Those words generated widespread negative reactions which eventually led to Ye’s apologetic message.

Kanye West wrote, “I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions, it was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.”

B.G. Flexes Gigantic “Rat In A Casket” Pendant Amid Snitching Allegations 

B.G. has adopted a new slogan with a chain and pendant to match after being accused of snitching against his former co-defendant. He took to Instagram live Thursday to show off his new ice, a gigantic pendant of a dead rat inside a casket.   

“My new little ice I had to pull out man,” he told his followers before reading the inscription. “Snitches lives don’t matter. That’s what that joint say.” 

He then opened and closed the casket on his custom piece, adding, “That’s the rat in the casket.”

B.G. addressed the snitching allegations during an interview with Pop Austin Media’s TTE Notti earlier this week.  

“At first, I was feeling some type of way,” B.G. explained. “But the n#### whose opinion matter reached out to me. ‘Cause I been paying attention to this internet, right? And this internet a fool, ya heard me? This s### a beast, ya heard me? You know the internet undefeated and truth don’t need no co-signer, you heard me?” 

However, the former Cash Money Records artist said he “talked to my real jail n#####” who assured he should ignore the accusations.  

“They like, ‘Man, listen. Man, don’t even pay that s### no mind. N##### just trying to use your light to shine to bring them out they darkness.’” B.G. added.  

Wack 100 was one of the people accusing B.G. of ratting, claiming the paperwork proved he snitched.  

Boosie Badazz spoke out in defence of B.G., prompting Wack 100 to threaten the Baton Rouge native. 

“When I see you, I’ma beat your ass,” Wack 100 said. “Straight up, n####, be ready. I hope B.G. the Rat Man was worth it.

He went outside to the car where his son was sitting and opened the door to see him engrossed in his phone with a blunt in his hand.  

“The first thing you do in the morning, huh?” Boosie said, startling Tootie Raww, who had failed to notice his dad. “I ain’t even see you right there,” Tootie replied before Boosie told him it was because he was so “loaded.”

Boosie previously shared his fears about Tootie Raww “crashing out” over rapper beef. The 20-year-old made headlines last month when he called out NBA YoungBoy and Kodak Black for not clearing his features.

Days after enjoying a cozy Christmas together, Halle Bailey and DDG hit the town to celebrate their anniversary. 

The Little Mermaid star and her man went out for a romantic dinner Thursday night (December 28) to mark two years of their relationship. In a video shared on social media, Bailey showed off some of her Christmas gifts from DDG.  

“This is my anniversary fit,” she said in the video before showing off her festive haul. “Daddy iced me out,” she added as DDG panned the camera to reveal the goodies he bought her. 

In another adorable video, Halle Bailey showed fans a glimpse of their delectable desserts before showing love to DDG. “He is the real dessert,” she said, laughing before playfully squeezing his cheeks.

EXCLUSIVE: DJ Envy’s Former Business Partner Cesar Pina Trying To Duck Lawsuit

It looks like DJ Envy’s alleged former business partner, Cesar Pina is ducking the fade – with the victims in one of his ongoing real estate fraud lawsuits.

DJ Envy and Cesar Pina, also known as “Flipping NJ,” have faced a series of legal challenges stemming from allegations of the alleged scam. 

Their pair hosted seminars, which focused on buying properties to flip them for profit, luring multiple investors. However, these investors later claimed they were swindled out of considerable sums, with losses ranging from $100,000 to $5 million for a Miami-based musician.

The total amount scammed is estimated to be between at least $17 million and could be as high as $100 million.

Pina, who was arrested and charged with real estate fraud, is currently on house arrest. He has also denied the accusations, asserting that Envy was never involved in any questionable deals or partnerships.

DJ Envy has yet to be charged with a crime. Despite this, DJ Envy and Pina face nearly two dozen lawsuits related to the real estate flipping venture.

Now, a lawyer representing some of the victims is asking a judge to help locate Pina because he’s allegedly trying to avoid being served for this particular lawsuit. AllHipHop.com obtained an affidavit from one of the process servers, who claims he tried to serve Pina five different times at his house in New Jersey.

Process server David Spalding said he visited Pina’s house on 12/12/2023 at 11:44 AM, 12/13/2023 at 9:43 AM, 12/14/2023 at 10:45 AM, 12/15/2023 at 5:35 PM and 12/18/2023.

“There is a ringbell system. A dog is inside and a pick-up truck and/or a Mercedes SUV were always parked in the driveway. But on all attempts, no one ever answers the door. Unfortunately, I was unable to effectuate service,” Spalding explained. 

“On each occasion that service was attempted, the process server observed cars parked in the driveway, but no one answered the door,” Alexander Schachtel, Esq, who represents the victims, explained.

Now, the Plaintiffs must resort to alternative methods of service. They are asking a judge for permission to mail the complaint. 

DJ Envy and Pina ended up in a legal mess thanks to the seminars promoted by and conducted with Envy and Pina. During these events, they reportedly sought to identify individuals with significant financial resources to partner in real estate joint ventures. 

These ventures involved upfront capital contributions from investors promising to use these funds for property renovations to enhance resale values.

In April, the first victim publicly accused DJ Envy and Pina of defrauding them of hundreds of thousands of dollars. This allegation opened the floodgates of real estate hell, with many others coming forward on social media proclaiming similar experiences. 

The lawsuits accuse Envy and Pina of various violations, including fraud, breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, and a civil RICO violation. 

DJ Envy has consistently denied involvement in fraudulent activities, claiming ignorance of Pina’s actions and emphasizing his financial losses in the process. 

Last week, a New Jersey judge threatened DJ Envy and Pina with arrest if he didn’t hand over all documents requested by a trustee overseeing the bankruptcy of one of Pina’s company called WhairHouse Real Estate Investments, which is registered to the same address as the residence the process server visited.

Tory Lanez & “That ’70s Show” Actor Danny Masterson Serving Time In Same Prison

Actor Danny Masterson is reportedly serving his 30-year sentence for rape at the same California prison as Tory Lanez.

On Thursday (December 28), The Messenger reported the convicted That ‘70s Show alum had been transferred to North Kern State Prison located in the city of Delano on December 27. Masterson had previously been held at the Men’s Central Jail in Los Angeles following his September arrest. Lanez was sentenced to 10 years in prison in August for allegedly shooting Megan Thee Stallion and is currently housed at the same facility in Delano.

According to the Level IV prison’s website, the 600-acre facility offers inmates countless opportunities to earn specializations in programs such as automotive service and Microsoft Office. There are also substance abuse rehabilitation services and legal resources along with a library.

Masterson was sentenced to 30 years in prison in September after being convicted for rape. Masterson was found guilty on two counts of forcible rape in June, though he was also originally charged with a third count in connection to allegations that he raped his former girlfriend in 2001. Lanez has already filed a petition to vacate his 10-year sentence in light of a recent statement from his driver, alongside other factors, including “childhood trauma” and a possible discriminatory deportation. 

Kanye West Trends After Amber Rose & Chris Rock Paparazzi Photos Hit The Net

Kanye West is catching strays amid the swirling dating rumors surrounding Amber Rose and Chris Rock—and it’s sort of a full circle moment.

In case you missed it, Rock and Rose were recently spotted together on a stroll in New York over the Christmas holiday. Both appeared to be without their children and enjoying each other’s company on their short stroll before they reportedly returned to Rock’s apartment. And of course, before fans could even get a chance to speculate on whether the pair are actually romantically involved, incoming Kanye West comparisons threatened to foil everything.

The majority of the discourse connecting all three is Rock’s obvious involvement in West’s 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy for what is believed to be the Rose-disparaging diss track, “Blame Game.” Twitter (X) users have been clamoring about the irony of it all pretty much since the paparazzi pics dropped.

“Blame Game skit playing out in real life is crazy,” one user wrote while another remarked, “Blame Game the funniest song of all time now.”

Multiple users also utilized the opportunity to re-purpose Rock’s infamous “re-upholstered your p###y” remarks from the record in their retorts on Twitter.

“He foreshadowed this 13 years ago,” a user wrote.

Peep all of the hilarious quoted tweets from the couple’s stroll through New York here.

In Remembrance Of Doe B; T.I.’s Artist That Was Tragically Killed 10 Years Ago

A young rapper named Doe B was reared in the heart of Alabama, specifically Montgomery. Born in “The Gump,” he possessed a raw talent that would ultimately leave an indelible mark on the world of Hip-Hop. Unfortunately, he was taken from his family, friends and fans 10 years ago today.

Doe B’s rough-n-tumble journey into the world of music was a testament to his grit and determination. Growing up in The Gump, was plagued by adversity. He used music temporarily as an escape. He began to craft lyrics that spoke of his life, his dreams, and the struggles he faced.

His first mixtape, “Definition of a Trapper,” made waves locally with a cast of characters like Bao Pham aka Classic, Writers 6 Mile JP, 808 Mafia, Big Hulk, Boston George and others. But his collaboration with T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records truly propelled him to stardom. Doe B’s distinctive Southern drawl and charismatic presence immediately caught the industry’s attention. Songs like “Let Me Find Out” and “2 Many” showcased his lyrical prowess and unique storytelling ability, earning him respect far beyond the boundaries of Alabama.

Doe B’s journey was not without its challenges. He faced adversity in the streets and the music industry, but he remained steadfast in his pursuit of success. When he was shot in the face, losing his sight in one eye, he immediately went on a tear releasing more music. He used his experiences to fuel his creativity, often rapping about the harsh realities of life in the South while maintaining a sense of hope that resonated with his fans. He even performed at AllHipHop’s 15th Anniversary event with Ghostface Killah and Raekwon as a sign he was going far.

Tragically, Doe B‘s promising career was cut short on December 28, 2013 – 10 years today – when he was shot and killed at a nightclub in Montgomery. It was T.I. who broke the awful news on social media. His passing sent shockwaves throughout the Hip-Hop community and left a void that will never be filled.

Doe B’s legacy lives on. His music continues even though he is not here in the physical form. His life is a reminder that dreams can be realized. His story serves as a testament to the power of talent, determination, and the enduring impact that artists can have on their communities. He is also a cautionary tale about the streets and staying wary of those who would rather one die than see those dreams come to life.

Alabama and AllHipHop will forever remember Doe B as a son who rose from humble beginnings to become a real voice in Hip-Hop. His memory lives on and he will never be forgotten.

Consequence Demands Apology From Kanye West Over “Slap In The Face”

Kanye West’s longtime collaborator Consequence wanted an apology from the controversial artist. Consequence aired out his frustrations with Ye in an Instagram post on Thursday (December 28).

“I have always lent my love, support and expertise to YE since ConMan Productions circa 2002,” Consequence wrote. “So @kanyewest NEVER again say in public or to others in private that you are ALONE. That’s the biggest SLAP IN THE FACE you could give to your TEAM.”

He continued, “Guys like me, Don C, Monop, GL, Doe, IBN, Arrow and even Virgil (RIP) have given you big portions of our Adult lives so that we could all be ‘The Bulls.’ But we didn’t help you become Jordan so you could turn into Jerry Krause and start playing 3D Musical chairs wit da bros!!! You can be the one with the Money. And even the Power. But I will always need my RESPECT. If you can apologize to the Jewish community in Hebrew… Then maybe you should apologize to a few of your guys in English.”

Earlier this week, Kanye issued an apology for his antisemitic remarks. The message was written in Hebrew.

“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for my unplanned outburst caused by my words or actions, it was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused,” he wrote. “I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me, and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity.”

The apology received a mixed reaction. The Anti-Defamation League considered it a positive start if Kanye continued the “long journey” of making amends for his antisemitism. The American Jewish Committee criticized the apology for being inaccessible and expressed concerns about it simply being a ploy for attention.
