Insiders assert that Kanye West has long loved Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and previously intended to name an album after him.
CNN was told by sources close to the disgraced rapper that he was ‘obsessed’ with Adolf Hitler and intended to name his 2018 smash album after the fascist leader, but ultimately released it under the name ‘Ye.’ It is unclear why he reversed his position.
A former company executive remarked, “He would glorify Hitler by remarking how wonderful it was that he was able to amass so much power, as well as all the great things he and the Nazi Party accomplished for the German people.”
People in West’s inner circle, according to the unnamed source, were ‘well aware’ of his enthusiasm for Hitler since he spoke freely about reading Mein Kampf, Hitler’s 1925 book, and praised the Nazis’ propaganda.
According to the business executive, West’s harsh work atmosphere ultimately led to his resignation.
He reportedly secured a settlement with Ye and some of his enterprises over workplace issues, including harassment, but requested anonymity owing to a confidentiality agreement and fear of retaliation.
CNN claims that as part of the arrangement, West disputed the allegations.
After tweeting that he would use ‘death by three strikes’ against Jews and claiming that Jews in the media are working against him, the rapper is now witnessing the collapse of his multibillion-dollar company.
Others have previously accused the Gold Digger singer of anti-Semitism, with a former TMZ staffer stating in a podcast earlier this month that West made anti-Semitic remarks in 2018 that the publication opted not to publish.
Van Lathan Jr. stated on his podcast Higher Learning that he confronted West over his statement that slavery’sounds like a choice.’ West responded by expressing his admiration for Nazis.
“I’ve already heard him say it on TMZ,” stated Lathan Jr. This type of anti-Semitic speech is repugnant, and I was shocked to hear it.
