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.
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.
Below are some videos:

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.
Lil Wayne’s 2010 jail stint helped him better understand the impact he had on his fans. The prolific rapper reflected on his time behind bars during an appearance on Joel Madden’s Artist Friendly podcast. Weezy mentioned the enormous amount of fan letters he received in jail and how the outpouring of support truly showed him what his music meant to people.
“I was able to see that through letters when I was locked up,” he told Madden. “I got locked up at the height of my career. Those letters that came in and it was so—just by the amount, plain and simple. Me and the prison, we had to form a process to where you only could get—we’ll give you the mail on a Tuesday and we gotta give it back to your people or something because it would be a fire hazard in my cell. It was over 10,000 [letters] a day.”
Lil Wayne noted how his confinement created a focus on his fans that did not exist when he was a free man. He said the letters provided him with a more personal connection to his fans as opposed to a passing interaction in public.
“I’m sitting the cell, I ain’t got nowhere to go,” he said. “You’re not catching me walking to a stage or walking off a stage or walking in the mall … I can’t do nothing but sit here and read this letter and pay attention. And one thing about writing a letter, that’s one of the purest forms of showing whatever it is, your expression.”
Lil Wayne spent eight months in the Rikers Island jail after pleading guilty to a felony gun charge. He was released in November 2010. Weezy pleaded guilty to another gun charge in 2020, but former President Donald Trump pardoned the New Orleans native in 2021.
NBA YoungBoy believed there were misconceptions about his drug use. The Motown Records artist said he spent time in rehab and mentioned his current alternatives to drugs in an interview with Bootleg Kev published on Thursday (December 28).
“I went to rehab for a weekend recently,” NBA Youngboy told Kev. “I still get an image that I do a lot of drugs. So, I kind of get that thrown in my face like, ‘Oh, this taking over his mind,’ or something at the same time … And now I’m kind of taking on just therapy from now on.”
He added, “I’ve been doing a lot of rich sipping and smoking these nasty ass cigarettes … They’ve been tearing my ass up though, man. I wanna stop smoking them so bad.”
The rare interview with YoungBoy was conducted in Utah where he remains on house arrest. A Louisiana judge partially granted his request for fewer restrictions on house arrest, allowing him to seek medical help for his mental health. But the judge rejected the rapper’s bid for more freedom to travel to recording studios.
“The conditions imposed on [YoungBoy’s] pretrial release are designed to reasonably assure the safety of both [YoungBoy] and others,” the judge wrote in her ruling. “[YoungBoy] states he ‘does not want to burden this Honorable Court with each employment-related request,’ but given the vague bounds of the request, and in light of the history of violence aimed at [YoungBoy] and those around him, the Court is more troubled by the threat that the proposed modification imposes on [YoungBoy’s] safety. [YoungBoy] can continue to seek Court-approval of such activities until the trial of this matter begins on the date recently chosen by the parties.”
YoungBoy awaits trial in a federal gun case. It is scheduled to start in July 2024.
Boosie Badazz showed no concern over Wack 100 threatening to beat up the Baton Rouge-bred rapper. The outspoken artist downplayed any potential danger while speaking to fans on Instagram Live.
“I ain’t worried about nobody,” Boosie said. “I don’t even go no opps. I don’t even go no opps no more. I’m in a city where everybody love me. Well, not everybody. I mean, I don’t got no problem nowhere I go. I ain’t in no beef with no n#####. Life is great.”
Boosie grinned while discussing his comfortable status before warning viewers of what happens when he truly has beef with someone.
“When I got opps, it’s bad for a lot of people,” he said. “It’s not gonna be a good day … N##### don’t want to turn me into no maniac.”
The issues between Boosie and Wack 100 emerged in connection to snitching allegations. Boosie defended B.G. and called Wack 100 a clown after Wack 100 accused B.G. of being a snitch. Wack 100 claimed he would attack Boosie the next time they saw each other in person.
“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. When I see you, we crashing, n####. That’s a fact. Whatever with you, it was what it is. Let me catch your ass. You better watch them bookings, n####. I will book your ass somewhere boy and violate you, n####. These little n##### be talking. This little n#### swear, he 118 pounds, bro. N##### like this, I just slap the f### out of n##### like this, bro.”
Wack 100 and others claimed B.G. snitched by testifying against a man named Kentrell Washington. B.G. brushed off the allegations. This past September, he was released from prison after serving more than a decade behind bars.
Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) President Punch is evidently not pleased with the artists nominated for rap album of the year in one of the first year-end lists to surface.
While it’s unclear what reason, and/or exactly which artist Punch has an issue with, one dead giveaway reason could be the fact that not a single TDE artist holds a spot on the 10-slot list. He jumped on Twitter to both voice his disapproval of the list and vent about his frustrations.
“This list is utterly shameful and a miscarriage of justice!! [crying laughing emoji],” Punch wrote.
There’s a pretty diverse range of artists and projects featured throughout the list, including Killer Mike’s Grammy-nominated solo album, Michael, and Nas and Hit-Boy’s Magic 3 album. There are also trap rappers such as Yo Gotti and Key Glock, whose I Showed You So and Glockoma 2 projects made the list.
In more ways than one, it’s easy to see why Punch wouldn’t necessarily be keen on the inclusion of Jack Harlow’s Jackman effort, but it’s mind-boggling to think he wouldn’t enjoy Larry Jun and The Alchemist’s joint LP. This is either a major case of misunderstanding or sign that the standards at TDE are immeasurably high, which isn’t hard to believe.
Check out the full list of projects on the RAOTY list below.
Queen Latifah is one of the most celebrated Hip-Hop stars of all time. The recording artist/actress became the first female rapper to earn recognition at the Kennedy Center Honors.
This year’s Kennedy Center Honors ceremony occurred at the Kennedy Center Opera House in Washington, DC on December 3. CBS aired the program on Wednesday (December 27).
Queen Latifah joined Billy Crystal, Renée Fleming, Barry Gibb and Dionne Warwick as 2024 honorees. Fellow Hip-Hop icon Missy Elliott gave a speech praising Latifah at the show.
Missy Elliott Applauds Queen Latifah For Being Unapologetic
“I want to tell y’all a little backstory. I was coming home from high school and I used to watch a lot of videos and I happened to see this young woman rapping, but what caught my attention was her clothes because she had on an African print, the African medallion. And I kept hearing her say, ‘Oh, ladies first, ladies first,’ over and over and over again,” Missy Elliott told the Kennedy Center audience.
Elliott then added, “I sat there and I was like, ‘Wow, she’s saying that during a time that we kept hearing it’s a man’s world.’ She was saying this unapologetically, changing the narrative right there. Something that I was so accustomed to hearing but now I’m hearing, ‘ladies first.'”
Queen Latifah put out the “Ladies First” single featuring Monie Love in 1989. The track lives on the New Jersey native’s All Hail the Queen studio album. “Ladies First” peaked at No. 5 on Billboard‘s Hot Rap Songs chart.
“Then I said, ‘Who is this girl?’ And I looked at the bottom of the screen and it said Queen Latifah. Not Latifah, but Queen Latifah,” Missy Elliott recalled.
She also added, “That only said to me that she was saying, ‘You will respect me… I will be a leader, I will be a provider, I will be an inspiration to many, I will be the blueprint to success, I won’t be just a part of the culture, I’ll be royalty to the culture. I won’t set the bar, I am the bar.'”
MC Lyte & Monie Love Pay Tribute To The Queen
Queen Latifah’s music catalog contains rap LPs like 1989’s All Hail the Queen and 1993’s Black Reign. She also released the jazz projects The Dana Owens Album in 2004 and Trav’lin’ Light in 2007. Latifah’s classic song “U.N.I.T.Y.” won a Grammy Award in 1995 for Best Rap Solo Performance.
In addition, Latifah scored a Best Supporting Actress Academy Award nomination for her performance in Chicago. Her list of career accolades also consists of a Golden Globe Award, a Primetime Emmy Award and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
MC Lyte, Monie Love, and D-Nice paid tribute to Queen Latifah at the Kennedy Center Honors. The three Hip-Hop representatives performed a rendition of “Ladies First.” President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were also in attendance at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
Peter Rosenberg spoke with TMZ about Kanye West’s apology. The Hot 97 radio host suggested West needed to make amends so his upcoming Vultures album with Ty Dolla $ign could be finalized.
“I thought, ‘I wonder what the sample is that Kanye needs to try to clear before Friday.’ We all know Kanye notoriously is late with handling album stuff,” Peter Rosenberg theorized.
Rosenberg also said, “I just wonder whether there was something getting held up. And someone said, ‘Hey, this sample does not get cleared if he does not issue an apology.’ Like you guys said, he just goes on chat GPT and boom we get a quote apology.”
On December 26, Kanye West posted a message written in Hebrew directed at members of the Jewish faith. The social media statement included Ye claiming he did not intend to “hurt or disrespect” anyone. West also stated he plans to gain “greater sensitivity and understanding” from the ordeal.
“No, of course not, absolutely not. No part of me believes this apology,” Peter Rosenberg responded when asked if he buys Ye’s expression of regret. The WWE talking head also blasted Kanye West for writing his apology in Hebrew.
Rosenberg said, “I totally agree by the way that the Hebrew part was like so, either intentionally or unintentionally, offensive. As if American Jews can just read Hebrew without vowels. Like bro, it’s just another offensive thing here.”
Additionally, Peter Rosenberg brought up Kanye West’s repeated adoration of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Rosenberg also implied Ye did not write the apology because it came off as “inauthentic.”
ABC and Dick Clark Productions tapped LL to hit the stage in New York City’s Time Square around midnight on NYE. Cardi will present her set from Florida’s Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel.

Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2024 airs December 31 on ABC beginning at 8 pm ET.
Key Glock is mourning the death of the engineer and founder of the Glock firearm company.
On Wednesday (December 27), the Paper Route Empire (PRE) rapper appeared to react on Twitter after uncovering the news about famed engineer Gaston Glock’s death. In a quoted reply to a tweet breaking the news, Glock offered his condolences with a short message of endearing respect.
Though he’s never been specific about the direct origins of his name, he has mentioned on several occasions that it was a nickname that was given to him in the streets of Memphis. Additionally, he’s maintained the Glock branding throughout the entirety of his discography thus far, including fan-favorite mixtapes such as Glock Season along with his recent Glockma 2 album over the years.
Check out a vintage interview of Glock speaking on the origins of his name in 2017 below.
Cam’ron recently stopped by All The Smoke with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. In addition to discussing sports and Hip-Hop on the show, the Harlem native also talked about an encounter with Hollywood legend Halle Berry in Los Angeles.
“I’m at the ATM and n##### is like, ‘Yo, that’s Halle Berry next to you!’ I ain’t got no haircut, I got no shirt on. I’m like, ‘Yo, let me talk to you real quick.’” Cam’ron said.
The Diplomats leader continued, “She’s like, ‘No, no, no, no, no, no. You have to relax.’ I’m like, ‘Hear me out, hear me out.’ So she’s walking to her car mad fast and I’m following her and I had a cassette tape.”
“So she rolled her window down this much. There was a n#### in the passenger seat laid back. I slid the s### through there and gave her my promotional tape,” Cam’ron stated.
Additionally, Cam went on to say he ran into actor Larenz Tate at the American Music Awards six years after his face-to-face with Halle Berry. The Menace II Society star shared some interesting information with the “Oh Boy” hitmaker.
“Larenz Tate was like, ‘Yo, my n####, I f### with you. You’re one of my favorites. You my n####, for years. You know that was me in the passenger seat with Halle when you slid that joint in there.’ I said, ‘That was you my n####?'” Cam’ron told Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.
Kodak Black has shared his thoughts on the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in the Middle East. The Florida-raised recording artist showed his support for his “Hebrew homies.”
TMZ published a video of Kodak Black showing off a $20,000 ring featuring the Star of David, a symbol of Jewish identity. Black also used the moment to call for Hamas to release any Israelihostages.
“The Star of David. And it’s just like perfect timing,” Kodak Black said in the clip. “Perfect timing cause, unfortunately, we’re dealing with this tragedy over there in Israel.”
On October 7, Hamas-led militants conducted a terrorist attack inside Israeli territory, causing over 1,000 deaths. Numerous Israeli citizens were taken captive as well.
Kodak Black, the son of a Haitian immigrant, also added, “Isreal’s a chosen land, just like Haiti. So if my word means anything, I want all the hostages free. Free all the hostages… Build Israel.”
Kodak Black apparently filmed his message calling for the release of Israeli hostages after getting arrested for cocaine possession on December 7. Broward County, Florida officials released him on a $5,000 bond.
However, Kodak Black, whose real name is Bill Kapri, later returned to federal custody for violating his supervised release. The 26-year-old entertainer remained on probation for a previous federal gun case.
As his father previously revealed, his son is a huge Travis Scott fan. After the show, Sire suggested that 50 Cent could learn a thing or two from La Flame.
Taking to Instagram Wednesday (December 27), 50 Cent revealed his son urged him to follow in Travis Scott’s footsteps with his next song.
“SIRE came back and said I need to make a New song and do it 10 times like Travis,” he wrote, referencing Scott’s recent viral performance.
However, 50 Cent shut his son down with a hilarious yet typical parental response. “I said you need to brush your teeth and get in the bed,” he added. “It’s bedtime.”
Travis Scott recently revealed why he performed his Playboy Carti-assisted track “FE!N” 10 times during his show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center earlier this month.
“Man, I have the best fans in the world and I go off the energy they give me, and they were wild that night, and so I just got even wilder,” he explained during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “Tonight I plan on going even crazier at Madison Square Garden.”
50 Cent Earns Cool Points With Travis Scott Gift
50 Cent revealed he scored some major cool points with Sire after Travis Scott sent him a pair of his latest sneakers.
“Now he thinks I’m a superhero,” Fiddy shared during an interview with Mary J. Blige earlier this year.
DDG is hitting back at suggestions that he can’t keep up financially with his singer/actress girlfriend Halle Bailey.
Earlier this week, the rapper and The Little Mermaid star shared videos of their cozy Christmas together. “Spent $500,000 on christmas,” DDG wrote alongside one video showing off his gifts for Halle Bailey. The couple donned matching festive pajamas as they unwrapped the presents. Bailey was overcome with emotion after receiving a diamond Tiffany necklace and a black Birkin bag.
DDG was happy with his haul, which included Balenciaga boots and a set of diamond stud earrings.
The videos went viral, with fans speculating that the singer has given birth to her rumored child. Other fans took the opportunity to bash DDG, claiming Halle Bailey paid for her own Christmas gifts.
Nonetheless, DDG responded to the hate with characteristic humor.
“i give up.. y’all figured it out,” he wrote on X Wednesday (December 27). “im broke asf.. can anybody let me borrow a few thousand til next friday?”
When somebody questioned what he actually does for a living, DDG joked, “i sell weed.. $20 a gram, $100 a 8th.. i also work at foot locker at the beverly center in beverly hills.. what else y’all wanna know.”
i sell weed.. $20 a gram, $100 a 8th.. i also work at foot locker at the beverly center in beverly hills.. what else y’all wanna know https://t.co/YTIF0yARq3
He returned to the platform a few hours later with a video showing off stacks of cash, inviting his followers to guess how much money he had to win $100.
French Montana has an enviable sneaker collection that includes a pair worth the equivalent of a luxury supercar.
The “Unforgettable” hitmaker was sitting courtside at the Nets game Wednesday (December 27) when he showed off his kicks.
“I got $200,000 on my feet,” French Montana boasted while panning the camera down to his Virgil Abloh-designed Louis Vuitton Nike Air Force 1 sneakers. That’s a Lamborghini. Like my n#### Baby said, ‘That’s a Lil Duval plane on my feet.’”
French Montana paid tribute to the late designer in the caption, writing, “REST IN PEACE VIRGIL.”
Like French Montana, Fat Joe also has a pair of the highly coveted Virgil Abloh-designed sneakers that he refuses to sell because of their sentimental value.
“I got offers of up to $150,000 for this one pair of sneakers,” he explained during an Instagram Live in April. “Now, somebody offering you $150,000 for a pair of sneakers is almost like the devil is tap dancing, like the Sandman at the Apollo. If you gave me a gift, I could never sell a gift. It was a gift.”
He continued: “I don’t believe in selling it, but boy, is the temptation there. Somebody’s just dancing like this trying to give you 150 grand for a pair of sneakers that, by the way, you got for free.”
Meanwhile, French Montana reminded fans he has a new project coming early in the New Year. The fifth installment of his long-running Mac & Cheese mixtape series is due January 5.
Joe Budden is looking back over some of his highly publicized feuds over the years, including his beef with Jay-Z and Eminem.
The outspoken rapper turned podcaster was asked if he has misgivings over any of his spats during the latest episode of The Pivot podcast. While Budden said he has no regrets, he admitted he could have handled things better.
“I don’t regret any of it ’cause I pulled a lesson from it,” he explained. “All of the yesterdays lead to today. If I change one thing, then the outcome, the result is different.”
When pressed to recall a specific situation he mishandled, Joe Budden went all the way back to the beginning of his career when he was signed to Def Jam while Jay-Z was at the helm.
“I was a young artist on Def Jam trying to work on my second album,” he explained. “And at that time, a lot of the artists on Def Jam had an issue with Jay-Z being the president. This was the first time that a rapper, our peer, was calling the shots, in charge of DMX release date and LL release date, and none of us took that well. And I really didn’t take it well.”
Budden confessed, “I didn’t handle myself well at all,” and would belittle the label at every turn.
“Every interview that they booked for me, I kicked them back in,” he added. “Every chance I got in front of a microphone, I had disparaging things to say about people who, ultimately, were maybe trying to help me. Even if they weren’t trying to help me, if I would’ve helped myself, I would have been in a different predicament. But I didn’t. Gas on the fire.”
Joe Budden Insists His Intentions Were Selfless
Ultimately, Budden says that although he could have expressed himself better, his intentions were pure.
“The intent is always for the better of everyone. It’s never a selfish act,” he said. “When I had my back and forth with Shady Records and Eminem, I was fighting for me and my brothers to get a better situation. What other fights? I forgot all of them now… But there was good intent behind it all.”
Rick Ross has come to the defense of Lil Baby after social media users are attempting to smear his name over a viral airport video.
Over the weekend, a clip of a fan interacting with the 4PF rapper has been making rounds on social media, with fans accusing Lil Baby of boarding a Spirit airlines flight. Even though Spirit is considered a budget travel option alternative to major airlines, Ross seemingly has no shame in flying with the carrier and even commended Baby for doing the same. Rozay went on to reveal that not only has he flown Spirit in the past, but he also claimed he did it for well over a decade in a comment on an Instagram post reposting the clip.
“Wise man, I did it 15 years straight,” Ross wrote in the comment.
Say what you want, but we all did just see Rozay buy a jet and put out a virtual ZipRecruiter application for a personal flight attendant—so maybe all of those Spirit flights saved him some serious cash over the years.
Check out the clip of the hilarious interaction below.
Kanye West’s apology over his antisemitic remarks has received a mixed reaction from Jewish organizations. West, also known as Ye, apologized to the Jewish community on Instagram on Tuesday (December 26) for making antisemitic comments on social media and in public for more than a year.
However, a spokesperson for The American Jewish Committee criticized the rapper’s use of Hebrew, arguing that he “intentionally” denied most American Jews and non-Jews from being able to read his apology.
“Beyond being bizarre and possibly a ploy to gain more attention, the Hebrew apology – posted without translation – is inaccessible to most American Jews who do not speak the language,” they said in a statement to The Associated Press. “While he claims that he is committed to learning and greater understanding, this apology speaks to ‘any pain I may have caused,’ rather than acknowledging the pain that he has caused.”
Kanye West lost partnerships and business deals after making antisemitic remarks in October 2022. He has made offensive comments about Jewish people on and off since then, including at a Las Vegas album listening party two weeks ago. Then he randomly decided to issue an apology in Hebrew.
“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions,” it read. “It was never my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.”
Kanye Was is gearing up to release Vultures, his joint album with Ty Dolla $ign, on January 12.
