Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has sparked widespread outrage with his disturbing social media announcement regarding the sound of his forthcoming studio album.
- March 7, 2025
AceShowbiz - The prolific yet polarizing rapper Kanye West is back in the headlines, this time drawing significant backlash for an unsettling announcement of his new music as he announces his next studio album.
"This next album got that antisemitic sound," West posted to X on March 6, adding a disturbing label to his new music. "My new sound called antisemitic."
While it remains unclear if this revelation pertains to his long-teased "Bully" album, which is speculated to roll out in 2025, it has already sparked a wave of criticism.
This controversial announcement follows a series of antisemitic rants by Ye last month. A former employee also once revealed to CNN that Ye had previously wanted to name his 2018 album after Hitler, praising the dictator for accumulating power and celebrating the so-called achievements of the Nazi Party.
Despite his hatred towards Jews, Ye heaped praise on fellow artist Drake, who's a Jew. "I SAW A VIDEO OF DRAKE WALKING THROUGH HIS HOUSE AND SHOWING HE HAD A LIBRARY OF RYHME BOOKS MAN I WISH I COULD HAVE SEEN AND REMEMBERED THIS WHEN MY JEALOUSY OVERTOOK ME," Ye posted. "I LOVE DRAKE IMA SAY THIS WHEN I DIE I NEED YOU TO SPEAK AT ME FUNERAL."
Amidst all this drama, Ye disclosed in an interview with Justin LaBoy that he has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
