Absolutely fkn disgusting. What about Ke$ha and the hell she went through?!? That girl has real talent and she has all but faded from existence because she told a man "No"! And took her professional career back. Kanye is gross, as is his supporters.

are the small hats overreacting, or are the Black community underreacting about what kanye said about them?

Nobody owes him a comeback. He came out as a Nazi. Nazi's don't deserve celebrity. He's rich. Just go away and be rich. #FuckKanyeWest

I send my ❤️ to Kanye and have for years. When we come back to reality we hate ourselves for it all far more than you ever could. Don’t blame him for hateful people needing a reason. He just had the biggest platform. He apologized profusely. What more can he do? Don’t punish him for a diagnosis.

The author of this article fundamentally misunderstands Kanye completely based off of that blurb: 1) The writing is profoundly negatively charge. You can feel the hate coming off of the words. There's zero grace or margin for forgiveness in the sentences they wrote

sponsor is pulling out of event because he is going to perform.

Kanye "converted" to Evangelicalism for 5 minutes, and his first "Christian" concert was in Pigeon Forge on a Sunday. Monday morning I was commuting between a job in PF and one in Knoxville, and had to take back roads by GPS to get out of town. When a celebity makes a /con't.

Kanye West is proof can get the fuck away with anything
4/6/26, 10:50 PM
If anyone you know went to the Kanye concert, avoid them, forever. Consider that a bright red flag. When people show you who they are, believe them.
4/6/26, 10:36 PM
I agree. Why the fuck was Kanye's concert sold out at SoFi Stadium? (rhetorical)
4/6/26, 10:31 PM
Hilarious, y'all made all them excuses for that turrets individual but now y'all hating on Kanye; typical hypocrites.

The statement refers to giving Kanye West a "second chance", even though West has had more than a hundred chances. Who is going to introduce West at the show? Mel Gibson?
4/6/26, 10:08 PM
Counterpoint: no we don't. Kanye can go fuck himself and the Wireless Festival director can also fuck off

What Kanye thinks about Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian’s romance — and why he really ‘hated’ Pete Davidson: source
I do not see how anybody could listen to Kanye's music & not find the notion he's a misunderstood soul embattled with me...
"I do not see how anybody could listen to Kanye's music & not find the notion he's a misunderstood soul embattled with mental illness laughable. He is laughing his ass off at people running cover while he performs his latest horseshit about all the fame all the trials on top of a fucking globe"
4/6/26, 09:53 PM
Plenty of rappers are misogynistic pieces of shit who only care about money but only Kanye pulls this "gee I'm sorry I'm so bipolar yknow" card. If he has serious mental health issues he certainly doesn't take them seriously, or he'd have retired from public life a long time ago

Wireless Festival boss defends Kanye West appearance which is a very bad call.. Because it’s abundantly clear, he’s defending West appearing to protect his investment.. which is in defensible 😡
4/6/26, 09:27 PM
Turns out Kneecap and Fontaines are. Same sponsors as Wireless too - including those that pulled out because of the bad PR. All run by - guess what?! Live Nation and Festival Republic.
4/6/26, 09:22 PM
Well, fuck Melvin Benn, Festival Republic and the Wireless Festival for their Nazi-loving ways. West needs to be stripped of his visa to enter the UK.
4/6/26, 09:18 PM
Melvin Benn is clearly absolutely shitting himself about how much money he’s going to lose on this. Whoever could have predicted that booking an anti-semite to headline not one, not two, but all three nights of your festival would turn out to be a bad idea.

The domino effect is REAL 💀 Diageo OUT. Pepsi OUT. Who's next? #CelebBuzz #WirelessFestival #Ye #GossipAlert
4/6/26, 09:10 PM
the thing about Kanye is that I could generally conceive of saying ill-considered shit under the duress of your brain problems and being groomed by far-right influencers in the years that followed; making and selling nazi merch? that shit takes *time*, you have so many opportunities not to do it
4/6/26, 09:07 PM
Millionaire Kevin benn, who has turned Glastonbury into a business that makes millions a year in profit, who is part of the live nation group that owns ticketmaster and pays hundreds of millions for operating illegally. That Kevin benn, pretending he’s a saint and it’s not about money. Got it.

In what f@cking world do we live in that allows an artist to sing pro nazi and antisemetic songs at a UK festival???? The song "Heil Hitler" should be enough to get him banned! Shame on Wireless organisers! Discusting doesn't come close to describing this situation!

Time for the other acts to back out. They have the money to fight the legal battle even just the threat of them backing out over Kanye could make the festival remove him. Folks could refuse to go but they won’t people should be shamed and shunned for going knowing hes a maga Nazi.
4/6/26, 09:00 PM
That Wireless statement is actually embarrassing: "I have Jewish friends and also knew someone who was ill. West said he was sorry and anyway his stuff gets played on the radio all the time so shut up".
4/6/26, 08:57 PM
You'd think that somebody would have explained to Kanye West by now that Hitler's hatred of black people was pretty much on a par with his hatred of Jewish people; and that the Nazi's treatment of black Germans and captured black allied troops pretty much reflected that fact.

📢 [AI摘要] 伦敦Wireless音乐节因头牌艺人Ye（前Kanye West）的争议言论而面临赞助商撤离。主办方坚称，Ye仅是表演其合法可播的音乐，而非宣扬观点。主办方经理表示，应给予其改过自新的机会。Ye曾因反犹太言论和对希特勒的赞赏而受到广泛批评，但此前曾就反犹太言论道歉，并称其躁郁症导致行为失常。

The artist formerly known as K West is now formerly known as 'Ye' bc Ye never took on so he's still KW. KW took out a news apology for his former hate speech&Hitler praise. Sadly he's formerly done the same but continued to vote Trump & sell Nazi T shirts 1 consistent thing about KW is that he's a 🍆
