Kanye West, never a stranger to controversy, sparked yet another social media storm by sending a peculiar text to country singer Morgan Wallen, involving a swastika flag.
On social media platform X, Kanye West, known for his antics, posted a snapshot of a text message addressed to Morgan Wallen. The message included an image of a swastika flag accompanied by the simple greeting, “It’s Ye.” However, there is no indication if Wallen ever replied to this bizarre communication.
Kanye also shared a clip of himself tapping his foot and singing along to Wallen’s hit song “Love Somebody.” The internet, as expected, buzzed with reactions, wondering about Kanye’s unexpected interest in Wallen’s music.
Recently, Kanye has been making headlines for his antisemitic and pro-Nazi remarks. Amid a flurry of tweets, he unabashedly proclaimed his admiration for Hitler and his self-identification as a Nazi, shrugging off accusations of antisemitism.
In a particularly alarming tweet, Kanye wrote, “IM RACIST. STEREO TYPES EXIST FOR A REASON AND THEY ALL BE TRUE,” adding, “I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE F**K ANTI SEMETIC MEANS. ITS JUST SOME BULLSH*T JEWISH PEOPLE MADE UP TO PROTECT THEIR BULLSH*T.”
Kanye also expressed, “I LOVE HITLER. NOW WHAT B*TCHES. IM A NAZI. ALL WHITE PEOPLE ARE RACIST.” His shocking tweets have only added fuel to the fire of his ongoing controversial public persona.
Reports suggest that Kanye plans to perform at the Super Bowl wearing a swastika T-shirt and has entertained the idea of incorporating antisemitic themes into his upcoming album, ‘Bully.’
Besides his social media tirades, Kanye defended the sale and wearing of swastika T-shirts. In a defense of his actions on X, he stated, “THE IDEA OF BEING JEW PROOF IS I SAID ALL THESE POLITICALLY INCORRECT THINGS AND NOBODY WAS ABLE TO STOP ME EXTORT ME THREATEN ME TO CHANGE ANYTHING AND I MADE 40 MILLION THE NEXT DAY BETWEEN MY DIFFERENT BUSINESS.”
He further explained, “THERE’S I LOT OF JEWISH PEOPLE I KNOW AND LOVE AND STILL WORK WITH. THE POINT I MADE AND SHOWED IS THAT I AM NOT UNDER JEWISH CONTROL ANYMORE…” highlighting a strained yet confusing relationship with the Jewish community.
Kanye West’s unpredictable actions and statements continue to stir the pot of controversy, leaving fans and onlookers bewildered. His recent interactions involving swastikas and inflammatory rhetoric beg the question of where he will draw the line, if ever. Meanwhile, figures like Morgan Wallen inadvertently find themselves caught in the tempest of Kanye’s social media chaos.
