Kanye West's Antisemitic Encore: Chris Brown Joins Controversial Performance, Sparks Outrage

Kanye West is once again at the center of controversy due to his allegedly antisemitic remarks.

A video circulating on social media shows the musician rapping along to his collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, "Vultures," and proclaiming, "How am I antisemitic?"

Several musicians, including Chris Brown and Ty, had gathered to perform the controversial song. Bump J was among the group, and their collaboration has stirred adverse reactions on the internet.

In a bold statement on her Instagram account, Tanya Zuckerbrot, a Jewish businesswoman, posed an unsettling question: "Is it more appalling that the lyrics were written or that Kanye West and Chris Brown think it's funny?"

"Sick, masochistic, antisemitic f-ks."

Social Media Is Furious

The Chris Brown and Kanye West videos caused outrage among social media users. One person exclaimed, "Let the record industry chew on this. Let them never work again!"

Another individual expressed their dismay, writing, "Chris brown, an abuser, and Kanye West, a psychotic narcissistic self-proclaimed mastermind."

Not stopping there, others dubbed the display as "beyond sickening," "trash" and "disgusting."

Kanye West's Antisemitic Rants

Kanye West, 46, was subjected to intense scrutiny and criticism a year ago. This caused the hip-hop star to experience a dramatic career blip with Adidas and Balenciaga terminating their contracts with him. His social media accounts were restricted due to several antisemitic rants.

Controversy has arisen following the words of a Grammy-winning musician. In a tweet, he threatened to engage in "death con 3" against Jewish people and then later proclaimed that he had no remorse for his statement during a two-hour interview with Piers Morgan.

This has sparked outrage from many groups.

When Piers - who had parted ways with ITV's "Good Morning Britain" in April 2022 following his refusal to apologize for his derogatory comments about Meghan Markle - informed the Yeezy founder that he was being racist, he made a bold proclamation.

"Yeah, obviously, that's why I said it," Kanye retorted.

"I wanted to fight fire with fire. I'm not here to back down or be controlled."

Kanye West Loses Everything

Following his antisemitic outbursts, Kanye West felt the effects of negative karmic retribution.

This resulted in his MRC-produced documentary being abandoned, ending his relationship with CAA and leading to an assortment of retailers refusing to stock Yeezy products. However, this was not the end of it.

At the same time, Chris Brown's reputation has been called into question ever since his violent attack on Rihanna in 2009.

With further legal issues piling up over the years, it appears likely that Chris' appreciation for Kanye's song will do little to help him redeem his public persona.
