Kanye West isn’t done apologizing for his antisemitic past and reportedly has a 40-minute video apology on the way.
Sources with direct knowledge say the Yeezy founder rallied a camera crew together a few weeks back and recorded a lengthy apology video to the Jewish community that ran for about 40 minutes, TMZ reports.
Insiders say Kanye was “rambling” and made it nearly impossible to understand what he was saying. The recording is rumored to be released around the time of his upcoming album “Vultures” which is currently slated for a February 9 release.
The collaboration album with singer Ty Dolla Sign has been pushed back a few times since the pair first started teasing songs from the album last year. In the album’s first single “Vultures,” Kanye controversially combats his antisemitic label with the lyrics, “How am I antisemitic? I just fu*ked a Jewish bi*ch.”
Last month, he took to social media to post an apology to the Jewish community in Hebrew.
“I sincerely apologize 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,” the statement read.
“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 unity.”
The apology was such a blanket statement, that many accused Kanye of using ChatGPT to craft the message. Now, the “Stronger” rapper has another apology on the way that could further hurt his reputation with the Jewish community.
Kanye experienced a drastic fall from grace in 2022 following a series of anti-semitic attacks on social media and in interviews that resulted in him losing billions in business deals. Now with new music on the way, it looks like Kanye is attempting damage control to repair his image.
