Since 2020, Kanye West has been on a path that has sparked widespread outrage, making him, some say, a “pariah” in the industry.
For a while, however, signs of recovery were visible in his behavior. For example, he avoids controversial posts on social media to focus on producing music.
His recent apology to the Jewish community, which he viciously attacked with his views, is the latest addition to making amends for those he says he wronged.
West attributed this stunning change in his behavior to his wife Bianca Censori, who he said convinced him to seek help after suffering from mental health issues.
In the full-page advertisement in the Wall Street Journal, the Grammy winner states, “I’m not a Nazi or an anti-Semite. I love Jewish people.”
It appears you have attributed his anti-Semitic rants to a brain injury he suffered in a near-fatal car accident in 2002.
“The diagnosis was not properly diagnosed until 2023,” he continues. “The medical surveillance caused serious damage to my mental health and led to my bipolar type 1 diagnosis.”
Ye apologizes for his actions, saying, “I am sorry and deeply hurt by my actions in that state, and am committed to accountability, treatment and meaningful change.”
It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time West has apologized for his anti-Semitic outbursts. However, in the past he had reverted to making hateful statements.
