Kanye West has apologised to the Jewish community for his previous antisemitic comments in a new Instagram post.
The rapper was first accused of antisemitism in October 2022 following a series of posts on both Twitter and Instagram, which saw his accounts on both social media sites be suspended.
Earlier today (December 26), West shared a post written in Hebrew.
Translated into English, the message reads: “I sincerely apologise to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.
“I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me and I am committed to making amends and promoting greater unity.”
Following the initial claims of antisemitism made against West the star was dropped by his lawyer, talent agency and record label, while several fashion brands, including Balenciaga and Adidas, ended their partnerships with him.
