Kanye West called in to Chris Cuomo’s show on Newsnation to speaks about his recent controversies but by the end of the conversation, the rapper was left frustrated and tearful.
Cuomo pushed back on Ye over his recent anti-semitic remarks but Ye says he was not being anti-semitic.
“I don’t like the term anti-Semitic. It’s been a term that’s allowed people specifically in my industry to get away with murder sometimes, literally. And get away with robbing and doing bad [to] people,” he said. “I don’t believe in that term [anti-Semitic]. One thing is, Black people are also Jew. I classify as Jew also. So I actually can’t be an anti-Semite. The term is actually not factual.”
He blamed his marriage ending on his ex-wife’s relationship with the Clintons.
“My family was torn apart off of my political opinion because of my ex-wife’s attachment to the Clinton administration,” he said. “They were getting my ex-wife to push the vaccination — I didn’t realize how attached [the Kardashians] were to the left agenda when I was there.”
