man... Kanye's been through so much and it's sad that he's still struggling with his words 🤕. I mean, we've all said some stuff we regret later on but at least he's owning up to it now and apologizing 🙏. It's not going to be easy for him to regain trust with his fans and the public, but I think it's a step in the right direction 💪. The fact that people like Lyor Cohen and Ty Dolla $ign are speaking out against his hate speech is awesome 🤝, shows he's got some real friends who care about what he says and does 💕. And finally, kudos to him for meeting with Rabbi Pinto and apologizing in person - that takes a lot of courage 💯. Fingers crossed he can turn things around and be the Kanye we all know and love 🤞
 
I'm so worried about Kanye West's actions 🤕. It's like he forgets that words have power and can hurt people's feelings forever 💔. I think it's amazing that he's finally apologizing for his mistakes, though 🙏. Meeting with a Rabbi was a great step in understanding the impact of his words and how they've affected Jewish communities 🤝. The fact that he's doing this now, rather than hiding behind his ego, is really admirable 💯. Maybe it's time for him to use his platform to spread love and positivity instead of hate 😊
 
I THINK KANYE WEST'S ANTISEMITIC OUTBURSTS HAVE BEEN A BIG DEAL FOR TOO LONG! 🤕 HIS WORDS HAVE HURT LOTS OF PEOPLE AND IT'S TIME FOR HIM TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEM. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I DON'T BLAME HIM COMPLETELY - HE'S SUFFERED FROM MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN THE PAST AND THAT COULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO HIS OUTBURSTS. BUT STILL, HE SHOULD BE MORE CAREFUL WITH WHAT HE SAYS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO SUCH A DELICATE TOPIC AS ANTISEMITISM. I HOPE HE CONTINUES TO WORK ON HIMSELF AND LEARN FROM HIS MISTAKES 🤞
 
I'm not surprised Kanye's been sued by a former employee for all that hate speech. I mean, he's always been known for speaking his mind, even if it means ruffling some feathers. 🤔 But at what cost? His career's taken a hit, and it's hard to blame people for walking away.

I've seen the videos of him wearing those swastika T-shirts and saying some pretty wild stuff on X. It's like he's trying to court controversy or something. I don't get it. Can't he just speak his mind without being so divisive?

The thing is, Kanye's been through a lot, especially after that car crash 25 years ago left him with brain damage and bipolar disorder. You can almost understand why he'd lash out sometimes. But that's no excuse for the hate speech.

It's interesting that Lyor Cohen wrote an open letter to him urging him to end his hate-filled rhetoric. And then there's the fact that Australia canceled his visa over those lyrics in a song... it's like, what's next? 🤷‍♂️
 
Man... like, Kanye's been all over the place lately 🤯. First off, I feel bad for that former employee who filed a lawsuit against him. The guy's been spewing antisemitic hate for years, and someone finally called him out on it 👊.

Lyor Cohen telling him to chill with the hate speech is like, super needed though 💁‍♂️. And Ty Dolla $ign speaking out about it? That's a whole 'nother level of disappointment 🤕. I mean, Kanye's been making bank off his collabs, but at what cost?

And Australia canceling his visa? That's like, the ultimate slap in the face 😒. But you know what really gets me? The fact that he's still trying to spin it as if his words are some kind of joke 🤣.

But for real though, I'm glad Kanye finally apologized and owned up to his mistakes 💯. It's about time someone took responsibility for their actions. Still, I don't know how far this will go or if he'll ever truly change his ways 🤔.
 
man this is getting out of hand 🤯 I mean i get it kanye's been saying some wild stuff lately but does he have to go full on antisemitic? 🙅‍♂️ that former employee suing him for vitriol? girl bye, no one needs the drama 💁‍♀️ and can we talk about how every single time west tries to apologize it's just a bunch of lip service? 🤷‍♂️ like seriously, 6 months after meeting with a rabbi he still hasn't fully taken responsibility for his actions? come on yeezy, give us somethin' real 💯
 
🤔 I'm still trying to wrap my head around Kanye West's latest turn... He's been all over the place with his apologies, and it feels like he's just trying to make a statement instead of actually taking responsibility for his actions 🙅‍♂️. Like, what's the point of apologizing if you're not going to own up to your mistakes? And can we please talk about how his latest ad in The Wall Street Journal came across as kinda... performative? 📺 I'm just waiting to see if he'll actually follow through on these apologies or if it's all just part of his PR strategy 💸
 
omg have you guys tried that new plant-based pizza place downtown? 🍕 it's literally so good I was like wow i never knew i could get vegan cheese to melt like that lol anyway back to kanye west stuff did u hear about the time he went to australia and they cancelled his visa? like what even is that? and honestly i think he's just trying to be a provocateur at this point but honestly who tries to make a living off of being hated that much 🤑
 
😟🤕 Kanye's been through some wild times lately... his words have hurt so many ppl 🤝💔 antisemitic vitriol is NO JOKE, fam 💯

I'm all about free speech, but not at the expense of hurting others 🙅‍♂️. It's time for Kanye to take responsibility for his actions and be more thoughtful with his words 📢💭

Lyor Cohen's open letter was a good call 👊, and Ty Dolla $ign speaking out against him was refreshing 💁‍♀️. The Australian gov cancelling his visa? 🔒 yeah, that was about time ⏰

But the real hero is Kanye himself for finally meeting with Rabbi Pinto 🙏🏼 and apologizing 🤝💕 it's a huge step towards healing and growth 🌱💪
 
Ugh, Kanye's antics never cease to amaze me 🙄. I mean, who needs apologies when you're gonna keep making headlines for all the wrong reasons? He thinks a simple meet with a Rabbi will fix everything? Please, it's too little, too late. And what's up with this whole brain injury thingy? We've known about his bipolar disorder since forever, so why bring it up now just to justify his past hate speech? 🤷‍♂️ It's all just a big PR stunt in my opinion, trying to spin his way out of trouble. Give me a break.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around Kanye's latest antics 🤯. First, he's out here spewing hate speech, then suddenly apologizing like it's no big deal 😒. I mean, I get that he's been through some stuff and all, but come on man! This isn't a game of "I'm sorry" - it's about respecting people's cultures and identities.

And what's with the back-and-forth? First, Australia cancels his visa because of one song , then he apologizes in a meeting with a rabbi, and now again in that WSJ ad 📰. It feels like he's trying to make amends, but it's hard to believe when all this history keeps coming up. The thing is, you can't just say sorry and expect everything to be okay 💯. You gotta put your money where your mouth is.
 
come on guys, cant he just keep it together? like west's always been a lightning rod for controversy but this antisemitic stuff is low, even for him lol. i mean, who needs that kind of hate speech in their life anyway? his apologies are good and all, but actions speak louder than words, right? hes got a lot to unpack here 🤦‍♂️
 
I think Kanye's apologizing is total BS 🙄, he's just milking the controversy to sell more music and get attention. Like, come on, a meeting with a rabbi and an ad in the WSJ? That's just damage control, not actual remorse. And honestly, I don't blame people for calling him out - his words are still hurtful and hate-filled, even if he is saying sorry. It's like he thinks an apology will magically erase everything he's said and done. Newsflash: it won't 💔
 
Wow 💥 Kanye's been through so much lately, it's interesting to see him keep trying to make amends. I mean, he's said some pretty hurtful things in the past, but this apology business seems like a real attempt to change his game 🔄. Not sure if it'll stick or not, but good on him for trying 😊
 
I'm low-key shocked by Kanye's latest antics 🤯👎. I mean, come on dude! Antisemitic vitriol is never cool 😡. Anyone can make mistakes, but to keep apologizing after apologizing just seems like a waste of time ⏱️. If he really wants to learn and grow, why not take some real action instead of just talking about it? 🤔 Like, I get that brain injuries and mental health stuff are serious, but there's gotta be more to it than just spouting off in a ad 📰. And can we talk about how his fanbase is always like "Yeezy will never say anything wrong"? Like, no dude, he's said some pretty hurtful things 💔. Not saying I'm a die-hard expert on the guy or anything, but it seems like Kanye needs to take responsibility for his actions and do some actual damage control 🔄
 
omg, ye I don't know what's going on with Kanye West lately 🤯, but it seems like he's making some serious amends... like, for real this time? 😊 his apologies in that meeting with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto and that ad in The Wall Street Journal are actually kinda inspiring 💡 i mean, taking responsibility for your actions and using your platform to spread love is not always easy, so kudos to him for trying... but at the same time, it's like, he should've done this a looong time ago 🙄 you know? still, I think we can all learn from his mistakes and try to be better humans ourselves 💖 maybe that's what this whole drama is about? 🤔
 
I THINK KANYE WEST IS OUT OF CONTROL WITH ALL THE ANTISEMITIC STUFF HE'S BEEN SAYING AND DOING 🤯🚫. IT'S NOT OKAY TO USE HATE SPEECH AS A FORM OF ART OR AS A WAY TO GET ATTENTION. I FEEL BAD FOR THE JEWISH COMMUNITY AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN HURT BY HIS WORDS. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I ALSO FEEL SAD THAT HE'S STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND THAT COULD BE A PART OF WHY HE'S SAYING THESE THINGS 🤕👀
 
just read that kanye west is suing his ex employee who says he wasnt cool with her but then starts spewing antisemitic crap... what a joke 🤣 meanwhile, other people like lyor cohen and ty dolla $ign are calling him out on it. cant believe this dude still doesnt get it. hes like the ultimate symbol of hate in the music industry right now 💔
 
just another celebrity getting themselves into hot water lol 🙄, i mean kanye's been saying some crazy stuff for ages now and it's like he thinks a simple apology gonna fix everything, newsflash kanye: antisemitism ain't something you can just apologize your way out of 🤦‍♂️. personally i think he needs to take some time to reflect on his actions and educate himself on the impact his words have on others before we can even start talking about him making amends 💡.
