’Kanye Is EVIL!” Ye’s Antisemitic Online Tirade | Feat Rabbi Shmuley & Myron Gaines

Once considered to be a demi-god of hip hop, rapper Kanye ‘Ye’ West has since become a pariah amongst the black American community and the entertainment industry at large. Given that his past exploits have included direct antisemitism and calling slavery ‘a choice’, many people didn’t think he could sink any lower - but at this year’s Grammy Awards, he brought his wife Bianca Censori onto the red carpet, all for her to reveal herself in an entirely see-through dress. Days later, Kanye went on a seemingly unprovoked diatribe on X that included him saying he has ‘dominion over his wife’ and that ‘Jews should be whipped’.

The offensive nature of his statements begs two very important questions; should there be limits to freedom of speech? And can words push someone to violence? For an engrossing debate on these two concepts Piers Morgan talks to host of the 'Fresh and Fit Podcast' Myron Gaines, rapper and podcast host Zuby, author and relationship expert Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and commentator and YouTuber Choke No Joke.
