Kanye West has found himself at the center of controversy — again — after sharing a series of antisemitic posts during a days-long social media rant.
West turned heads on Friday, February 7, when he shared a series of X posts that included antisemitic remarks, the rapper praising Hitler and him declaring so-called “dominion” over his wife, Bianca Censori.
“This ain’t no woke as feminist s—,” he wrote via X. “She’s with a billionaire. Why would she listen to any of you dumb ass broke bitches. People say the red carpet look was her decision. Yes, I don’t make her do nothing she doesn’t want to.”
The rant came days after the couple made their official red carpet debut at the 2025 Grammy Awards, with Censori baring it all in a sheer dress. After their shocking entrance, a source confirmed to Us Weekly that the pair exited “on their own accord,” adding, “They just got in their car and left.” (West’s “Carnival” was nominated for Best Rap Song, but Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” won the award.)
“She definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without my approval, you stupid ass woke pawns,” West claimed on Friday. “I have no respect or empathy for anyone living ‘cause no one living can f— with me, but I do love some people and I give them favor.”

X Account Deactivated
News broke on Monday, February 10, that West’s X account was deactivated, with the profile now reading, “This account doesn’t exist.” It is unclear whether West, 47, deactivated his X account or whether it was removed from the platform. Us reached out to West’s rep for comment at the time.
Before the account was deactivated, Deadline reported that his page had a “potentially sensitive content” warning message. Per the outlet, Elon Musk said: “Given what he has posted, his account is now classified as NSFW [not safe for work]. You should not be seeing that anymore.”
West allegedly later wrote: “I’m logging out of Twitter. I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent. It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board.”
Dropped from Talent Agency
Daniel McCartney shared he would not represent West, who was no longer listed on 33&West’s website as one of their clients. Us reached out to West’s rep for comment at the time.
“Effective immediately, I’m no longer representing YE (F/K/A Kanye West) due to his harmful and hateful remarks that myself nor 33 & West can stand for,” McCartney wrote via his Instagram Story on Monday. “Peace and love to all.”
Website Shutting Down
West’s website, Yeezy, was shut down on Tuesday, February 11, where he was selling T-shirts featuring a swastika. Shopify, which hosted the site, shared that West’s online storefront was taken down because of a violation to the E-commerce platform’s terms of service.
“All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform. This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms, so we removed them from Shopify,” Shopify said in a statement on Tuesday, per Variety.
Sued by Former Yeezy Employee
TMZ broke the news on Tuesday that West was sued by a former Yeezy employee who claimed she was fired after complaining about his antisemitism. In the docs, the woman claimed West texted her and another Jewish staff member in a group chat, “Welcome to the first day of working for Hitler.”
The woman also claimed West sent her a message in reference to his infamous 2022 tweet where he threatened to go “death con 3 [sic] on JEWISH PEOPLE.” Us reached out to West’s rep for comment.
