Kanye West’s Yeezy online store is selling Nazi T-shirtsThe online store of Kanye West’s Yeezy fashion brand is currently selling only one item: a white T-shirt featuring a swastika on its front. An advert from the rap artist – aired during the Super Bowl – encouraged people to visit the website.
West – also known plainly as Ye – shared a string of controversial posts on X over the last weekend, in which he withdrew his apology to the Jewish community for past anti-Semitic comments, and declared himself as “a Nazi”. His account appears to have now been taken down or deactivated.
Prior to his account being wiped from the platform, a spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism said (via NME): “Once again, Ye has gone on an antisemitic rampage online. It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite. More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet.”
They go on to add, “It is obvious that Ye has not learned his lesson the first time, when Adidas ended its partnership with him, following our call to do so. At a time of unprecedented antisemitism, there can be no mistaking this incitement for exactly what it is.”
Along with the T-shirt, which is named as “HH-01”, West has also released a new song called Beauty And The Beast. It’s predicted to be featured on his upcoming album Bully, though it currently has no set release date. Some snippets of his new music were previewed by West last month, which featured a shout out to the disgraced rap artist Diddy.
