00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.590
- [Announcer] Kanye
West has recently faced

2
00:00:01.590 --> 00:00:02.670
a ton of righteous flack

3
00:00:02.670 --> 00:00:05.040
for saying a bunch of dumb racist things,

4
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:06.960
but Ye apparently has a long history

5
00:00:06.960 --> 00:00:09.480
of saying a bunch of dumb racist things.

6
00:00:09.480 --> 00:00:11.550
According to a recent report by NBC,

7
00:00:11.550 --> 00:00:13.410
West paid a settlement to a former worker

8
00:00:13.410 --> 00:00:15.930
who claimed West praised
Adolf Hitler and Nazis,

9
00:00:15.930 --> 00:00:17.940
which frankly tracks.

10
00:00:17.940 --> 00:00:20.820
The report also says that three
people who worked with West

11
00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:23.610
say he used antisemitic
language on multiple occasions,

12
00:00:23.610 --> 00:00:24.660
from praising Hitler

13
00:00:24.660 --> 00:00:27.360
to spewing conspiracy
theories about Jewish people.

14
00:00:27.360 --> 00:00:28.410
Three additional people

15
00:00:28.410 --> 00:00:31.860
recalled West going on an
antisemitic rant at TMZ offices.

16
00:00:31.860 --> 00:00:33.690
This, of course, is just
a drop in the bucket

17
00:00:33.690 --> 00:00:35.010
in Kanye's history of saying

18
00:00:35.010 --> 00:00:37.890
and doing things people
definitely shouldn't say or do,

19
00:00:37.890 --> 00:00:39.960
from wearing a shitty
White Lives Matter shirt

20
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:41.460
to tweeting that he will go, quote,

21
00:00:41.460 --> 00:00:43.530
death con one on Jewish people.

22
00:00:43.530 --> 00:00:45.600
West's more recent racist statements

23
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:47.100
have come with repercussions.

24
00:00:47.100 --> 00:00:49.710
Adidas cut ties with
Kanye in late October,

25
00:00:49.710 --> 00:00:52.290
music label Def Jam also dropped Kanye,

26
00:00:52.290 --> 00:00:55.320
and he was dropped from
the talent agency CAA.

27
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:56.910
The moral of the story?

28
00:00:56.910 --> 00:00:58.083
Don't be racist.
