Kanye West's 'Heil Hitler' Sparks Global Outrage

Published on 7.9.25

  Kanye West, an American musician, has been accused of adhering to antisemitic symbols and ideology, with some calling him one of the world's most famous antisemites. His recent song "Heil Hitler" sparked outrage, featuring a sample from Adolf Hitler's 1935 speech, which was banned in Germany due to hate speech laws. The song was removed from mainstream streaming platforms except for Elon Musk's X. Australian home affairs minister Tony Burke has announced that West's visa will be revoked due to his offensive views, following a performance scheduled for Bratislava, where over 70,000 Slovak Jews were killed during the Second World War.
