Kanye West, now known as 'Ye', has stirred intense controversy with his latest song "WW3", which openly praises Adolf Hitler and includes repeated phrases like "Heil Hitler". These lyrics have ignited accusations of antisemitism and violate strict German laws against Nazi symbols and slogans. Despite the song's illegal nature, enforcement against its streaming has proven challenging. Ye's history of antisemitic remarks, including admiration for Hitler and Holocaust denial, has drawn widespread criticism, illuminating a troubling pattern in his public persona and artistry.
Ye's new hit single, titled "WW3", repeats the phrase "Heil Hitler" over and over again, raising fresh controversy and accusations of rampant antisemitism with its lyrics.
The public display of Nazi symbols or the use of Nazi slogans is a criminal offence in Germany, punishable by hefty fines or imprisonment of up to three years.
Despite the glorification of Nazis in Ye's song being illegal, enforcing a ban on the track appears to be nearly impossible on major streaming platforms.
Ye has been at the center of several scandals for his antisemitic speech previously, openly expressing enthusiasm for National Socialism.
