In the aftermath of Kanye's controversial remarks towards the Jewish community during his "Vultures" album launch on December 14, a series of events unfolded.

Collaborating with Ty Dolla $ign, they united to organize an electrifying gathering to celebrate their upcoming album, only to have it forcefully terminated by the authorities. Consumed by frustration, Kanye exited the premises fiery, captured on camera as he embarked on a passionate and lengthy discourse in front of a captivated audience.

Kanye shouted, "Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye! Sponsor that!"

In his remarks, the artist claimed that Jewish individuals hold ownership of all financial institutions, medical facilities, and exclusive educational establishments within the city of Los Angeles.

Furthermore, the renowned rapper, known for his album "Donda," passionately expressed himself while discussing his beloved daughter, North, who is now ten.

Earlier this week, North accompanied Kanye as they took the stage to showcase a decisive moment from his latest album.

In addition, the influential Yeezy pioneer took the opportunity to address various figures in the industry, including Drake, Jay Z, and his former business associates at Adidas, who terminated their lucrative partnership after he made a sequence of controversial remarks that sparked significant backlash.

Amid his emotional outburst, Kanye, a rapper living with bipolar disorder since 2018, expressed his belief that he lacked support from others.

A disruptive voice emerged from the audience, challenging him with the phrase, "You are not a deity, my friend."

In response, Kanye made an ill-advised remark, suggesting that the individual should be removed from the venue.

The rapper's attire drew comparisons to the white hood commonly linked to the Ku Klux Klan, a notorious American white supremacist extremist organization.

Online, critics vehemently criticized the rapper's choice of clothing, with one individual bluntly commenting, "I can't believe the way he's dressed; it's like he's emulating a member of the Klan."

A different individual chimed in, expressing concern about the person in question. In their words, they emphasized that this individual's perception of their actions as usual was far from the reality.
