‘It was just gut-wrenching’: Amidst Bankruptcy Rumors, Kanye West’s Fans are Also Leaving Him as Anti-Semitic Rant Makes Him a Nightmare Idol
Kanye West has been a topic of constant controversy and is often known for his savage behavior in many situations. Along with his attitude, he has been getting hit with major backlash over recent anti-Semitic remarks. Following his recent controversies, some of his die-hard fans have started to cut their ties with the rapper and are now feeling bad about their decision of supporting him as an idol.
Not only this, many fashion brands have turned him down and he also lost out on some major partnership offers in the music industry. Even worse, fans who once inked themselves with his music are now regretting their decision and want to get rid of it.
Kanye West Popularity Drops After Anti-semitic Rants
Thinking about the rapper as a good idol, many of his followers have shown their love and support to him by inking his music lyrics in their bodies. And now many of them shared their views explaining how much they are desperate to get rid of it. Ashley Smith, a musician from Cardiff, got Kanye West’s 2016 album The Life of Pablo, tattooed on her wrist and later told that:
“When I actually saw that he was making these comments about Jewish people, it was just gut-wrenching — this guy was supposed to be like one of my heroes, someone that I aspire to be like in making music and recording music.”
The musician also shared an TikTok video showing about needinalaser removal, but ultimately ended up covering it with a black bar of ink. Another TikToker of username, @jerry182269, shared, “You know, I gotta say, really starting to regret this tattoo [from] when I was 18.” Another TikToker @virgobarbie666 showed her multiple tattoos inspired by Kanye West and called him ‘anti-semitic’ and ‘racist.’
Every Company That Parted Ways With Kanye West
Following a list of antisemitic and anti-black comments made by the rapper, who also goes by the name Ye on multiple TV shows, podcasts, and social-media platforms, many companies including Adidas and Gap have publicly cut ties with him. The rapper confidently said earlier, “I can say antisemitic shit, and Adidas can’t drop me,” fueled more hate towards the rapper. Sources said, his billionaire status turned to dust without Adidas, leaving him with a $400 million estimated net worth down from $1.9 billion. From Balenciaga to Gap to his own talent agency, CAA, all have parted ways with the rapper.
