Kanye West is being dragged online this morning after the rapper dropped his video for his album track, “Heil Hitler.”‘

On the track, Ye proudly raps about being a “Nazi.”

“I became a Nazi yet b—h, I’m the villain,” he can be heard saying before the Black skinheads in the video break out into a chorus of “N—a, Heil Hitler.”

In the version released this week, Ye took out his offensive line about Drake. In the original version, Ye raps “N—as be acting like f-ggots, I think they might be Drake.”

In late 2022, Ye faced backlash following an anti-Semitic rant across social media and interviews. His rants led to sportswear giant Adidas dropping him, talent agencies cutting ties, and his billionaire status disappearing.

The following year, he apologized to the Jewish community in Hebrew.

“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions,” Ye wrote.

“It was not my intention to offend or demean, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused,” continued the rapper. He has since walked back on his apology.

Viewers on X, formerly Twitter, reacted to his new video.

“So let me get this straight. People are getting arrested and labeled as terrorists for peacefully protesting against what israel is doing under the guise of antisemitism but this mf can be antisemitic as f–k on Twitter and make music like this and it’s fine because why? Money?,” one viewer wrote.

“Our World is so Crazy… if this guy would perform this Song in Germany, he would straight up go to jail. How can someone defend him. Pathetic,” another viewer wrote.
