Kanye West, who now goes by the moniker “Ye,” has come back to social media to attempt to amend his mistakes. It is widely remembered that the 45-year-old rapper's antisemitic remarks caused him to lose a multimillion-dollar deal with sportswear brand ADIDAS and Balenciaga, GAP, and Foot Locker—and subsequently his billionaire status. West’s Yeezy brand was one of the more prosperous and successful collaborations between the brand and a celebrity partner, with ADIDAS reportedly losing a considerable amount of money—up to 1 billion dollars—in their decision to part ways.
The 21-time Grammy Award winner’s change of heart was catalyzed by a rewatch of the 2021 film 21 Jump Street starring Jonah Hill, who is Jewish. In a post, which has already earned 2 million likes, West declared, “no one should take anger against one or two individuals and
transfer that hatred towards millions of innocent people.” He said that Hill’s performance “made me like Jewish people again” before sending the actor a heartfelt “I love you.” West has been pretty quiet since his last appearance on InfoWars in December 2022, in which he praised Adolf Hitler. The “Heard Em Say” rapper was also suspended from Twitter after sharing a photo of the star of David merged with a swastika.
Despite West being out of the limelight for most of 2023, he has been active making changes in his personal life. After wrapping up his divorce from Kim Kardashian, West has a new Mrs. In January, he married Bianca Censori, a former YEEZY employee, in a non-legally binding ceremony. On several occasions, the pair have been seen out with West and Kardashian’s eldest child, North; however, there’s no word on when she’ll spend time with the former couple’s younger children, Saint, Psalm, and Chicago.
