Kanye West, also known as Ye, has issued a full‑page apology in the Wall Street Journal for antisemitic remarks made during manic episodes. He attributes the statements to bipolar‑1 disorder triggered by brain injuries from a car accident. The rapper said he was not a Nazi, expressed deep regret and pledged accountability. He also revealed ongoing mental‑health treatment, including a four‑month manic episode in 2025 and rehabilitation in Switzerland. The apology followed the loss of an Adidas partnership and talent‑agency representation. He denied earlier claims of autism and stressed the need for proper medication. The remarks had caused damage to Jewish and Black communities.
