Kanye West apologizes to Jewish community in Hebrew after ‘unintended’ antisemitic ‘outburst’
Kanye West apologized to the Jewish community early Tuesday for his series of “unintended” antisemitic “outbursts.”
The “All of the Lights” rapper shared the message, which was written entirely in Hebrew, on Instagram in the final hours of Christmas Day.
“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,” read West’s message, translated from Hebrew.
“I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future.”
West, 46, concluded his nativity note by saying his forgiveness is “important” to him and that he’s “committed to making amends and promoting unity.”

The Yeezy designer’s act of atonement follows his latest antisemitic tirade in Las Vegas earlier this month in which he ranted and raved about Donald Trump, Jesus and Adolf Hitler.
“It’s 60 million of us in America, 60 million Jews in the world,” he falsely screamed in a video obtained by TMZ.
“Who’s going to make the hospitals, though? He’s a Zionist, Trump. This is what I’ve been trying to tell you. Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye, third party, sponsor that.”

West, who is bipolar, went on to tell the crowd to “shut the f–k up” before ranting about how all the “rich f–ks” in the room have their kids enrolled “in Zionist schools” and blasting the private school his children attend.

“I still keep some Jews with me / Management? Nah / I only let ’em do my jewelry,” he rapped at a listening party as his daughter North West stood nearby.
North, 10, also witnessed her father wearing a KKK-style hood while addressing in new songs his previous antisemitic behavior.
“How I’m antisemitic? I just f–ked a Jewish bitch,” he rapped.
