Kanye West is trying to make things right this holiday season.
The Hurricane rapper took to Instagram hours ago, very late on Christmas night, and offered up a message meant for Jewish people. Alluding to his antisemitism in the past, Kim Kardashian‘s ex offered up a hopeful and hearty apology — in Hebrew!

Using the language of Judaism to get his message across, Ye spoke plainly with a lengthy apology about his actions. He began by sharing his sorrow over “any unintended outburst” caused by his past words and actions:
“I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions, it was not my intention to hurt or disrespect, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.”
Then, continuing the translation from Hebrew to English, he went on:
“I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me, and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity.”

Wow.
To be honest, that doesn’t sound like a statement Kanye would put out. That sounds like a statement corporate media or PR handlers would put out, that the rapper would then post to IG. Of course, Kanye doesn’t even speak or read Hebrew — as far as we know — so that alone would mean he had some help to share the statement in that language.
Regardless, this is certainly an about-face for a man who previously declared on social media that he was “going death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE” before saying all kinds of inflammatory things about them in interviews with Piers Morgan, Alex Jones, and others.
So, this is VERY surprising. What do U make of Kanye’s apology, Perezcious readers? Turning over a new leaf? Sound OFF with your thoughts in the comments (below)…
