The rapper formerly known as Kanye West, who has a long history of making antisemitic comments, apologized to the Jewish community in an Instagram post written in Hebrew on Tuesday.

“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, who legally changed his name to Ye in 2021.

Many of the people who have been tangled up in the investigation into whether former President Donald J. Trump illegally meddled with the 2020 election in Georgia are familiar names in the world of federal politics. But another, Trevian Kutti, is better known for her work in the cannabis and entertainment industries, where she has been tied to Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West.

More than two months after Kanye West’s last public antisemitic tirade, the rapper and fashion designer has largely disappeared from the headlines. But a new report from the Anti-Defamation League illustrates the lingering impact of his hateful comments, which continued to inspire real-world acts of harassment well after the mainstream news cycle had moved on.

President Biden will host a Hanukkah celebration at the White House on Monday, where he is expected to condemn the rise in antisemitism in the United States and call on other leaders to do the same.

The president and First Lady Jill Biden will host Jewish leaders for a reception on the second day of Hanukkah. There will be a blessing and a menorah lighting, a White House official said.

What was your line with Kanye West? If you never listened to what he had to say in the first place, you don’t get a medal: The rapper now known as Ye really did, at one time, merit attention for making some of the most forward-thinking art of this century. (Plus he was funny, in an actually-trying-to-be way.)

Kanye West has never been afraid to upset people, but his recent tirades against Jewish people have been too much for many.

At the start of October, he was a billionaire music artist and businessman, and had deals with some of the world's biggest brands.

Fast-forward just two months, and most of those no longer apply.

And it all started with a T-shirt.

At his Yeezy SZN 9 show, Kanye, now officially known as Ye, wears a t-shirt with a White Lives Matter slogan.

Anti-racism campaigners call it out as hate speech mocking the Black Lives Matter movement.
