Kanye West addressed the situation while leaving the above-mentioned event and spoke for the recent backlash following his antisemitic comments and the end of the bank relationship with JP Morgan Chase.
“Hey, if you call somebody out for bad business, that means you’re being antisemitic. I feel happy to have crossed the line of that idea so we can speak openly about things like getting canceled by a bank,” Ye said.
