Kanye West is once again facing backlash for his controversial lyrics. This time, he has drawn criticism from prominent Jewish advocacy groups for referencing a sexual encounter with a “Jewish b*tch” in his new song, “Vultures.”
The Anti-Defamation League and the American Jewish Committee have condemned West’s lyrics, calling them super offensive.
In a statement to TMZ, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which is a leading organization dedicated to fighting antisemitism, expressed deep disappointment in Kanye West’s choice of lyrics. A spokesperson stated that it is “disgusting to see Kanye once again use his platform to spew Jew hatred” at a time when antisemitism is on the rise globally.
Meanwhile, Richard Hirschhaut, a spokesperson for the American Jewish Committee (AJC), echoed the ADL’s sentiments and condemned West’s lyrics as “pathetic and sad.” Richard adds, “To fuel the flames of antisemitism and promote such bile to his millions of followers, especially at this fraught and dangerous time for the Jewish community, is unforgivable.”

More On Kanye’s New Lyrics:
As previously reported, Kanye performed the offensive lyrics live for the first time at a nightclub in Dubai over the weekend. He was spotted alongside Ty Dolla $ign and Lil Durk.
Kanye West has not said a word about the backlash over his new song but as many know, he’s used to receiving heavy criticism… so this is probably nothing to him.
Meanwhile, Chris Brown has since spoken out after fans slammed him for grooving to Ye’s new track. “Let me make this perfectly clear before y’all try to use me as a pawn,” Brown reportedly wrote. Ima Piru, I ain’t Muslim or Jewish so don’t start no shit wont be no shit!!! I’m trying to be peaceful but please do not wake up the demon in me. Go on about your fucking day.”
He reiterated in a follow-up, “IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM AM I ANTISEMETIC!!!” Brown, 34, wrote, according to screenshots obtained by XXL. “I AM PRO-LIFE AND I MAKE MUSIC FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!!!!”
Kanye West has kept a pretty low profile after he was nearly canceled for spewing out distasteful comments about the Jewish community. Earlier this year he even denied being antisemitic. He said,
“Watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump Street made me like Jewish people again,” he wrote on social media. No one should take anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people,” he continued. No Christian can be labeled antisemite knowing Jesus is Jew Thank you Jonah Hill I love you.”
