Kanye, who faced widespread criticism for his remarks and subsequent doubling down in interviews and statements, took to Instagram on December 26 to express his remorse. In a post written in Hebrew, the 46-year-old rapper conveyed his sincere apologies for any “unintended outburst caused by my words or actions.”
He acknowledged that it was not his intention to harm or demean anyone and expressed deep regret for any pain he may have caused. West emphasized his commitment to learning from this experience, ensuring greater sensitivity and understanding moving forward. He concluded the message by seeking forgiveness and committing to making amends and promoting unity.
This apology comes after a prolonged period of controversy that began in October 2022 with his offensive tweet. In other instances, Kanye made disturbing statements praising Hitler and denying the Holocaust. Despite these incidents, he is set to release his new album “Vultures” with Ty Dolla Sign on New Year’s Day.
