Kanye West is not backing down.
The ‘Stronger’ rapper is now responding to backlash he received after he was called out for his antisemitic remarks.
His words below…
In an interview with Chris Cuomo, Ye touched on subjects such as his plan to by Parler – a conservative social media app – as well as his recent remarks.
“I don’t like the term antisemitic,” he said.
“It’s been a term that’s allowed people, specifically in my industry, to get away with murder—sometimes literally—and get away with robbing and doing bad [to] people. … You’re saying it’s antisemitic, but I don’t believe in that term. One thing is, Black people are also Jew. I classify as Jew also, so I actually can’t be a antisemite. So the term is actually, uh, it’s not factual,” he continued.
Cuomo tired to interject at one point during Ye’s comments, but Ye continued to speak, saying: “Everyone wants to shoot the messenger. … ‘You have to understand’—but the thing is, the Jewish people that I’m talking about don’t have to understand. And that is that privilege that I’m not going to allow.”
Elsewhere, he would reveal that after he wore his “White Lives Matter” shirt, his concerts at SoFi Stadium were cancelled as a result.
The rapper – who shared his most recent album ‘Donda’ last year – previously took to social media, where he said that he was “going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE” when he woke up.
