The main conversation about Kanye West has changed substantially over the last several decades. Many of his fans went from viewing the 24-time Grammy winner as a musical genius to viewing him as a hate-mongering antisemite.

Last year, West spent weeks spewing antisemitic rhetoric that began with the rapper/producer threatening to go “death con 3” on Jewish people. Ye also celebrated Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, and he went on a media run with white nationalist Nick Fuentes.

Directors Coodie Simmons and Chike Ozah released the Kanye West documentary jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy in 2022. The Netflix-distributed jeen-yuhs earned an Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series nomination at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards.
