Rapper Kanye West on Monday denied being a Nazi and expressed regret over his antisemitic rants, blaming such behavior which included recording a song that celebrates Hitler on his bipolar disorder.
The disgraced 48-year-old music star, who has lost fans and business deals in recent years because of his racist or antisemitic outbursts, released his song Heil Hitler last May to mark the 80th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II.
The song has been banned on major music streaming platforms but is easy to find on the internet. Among other punishment it cost West his visa to travel to Australia.
