One user on X, formerly known as Twitter, said, “This is so unsurprising. This is a whole brand. He waited for the moment antisemitic would be cool- now he’s got it.”
“POST! As if Kanye West ‘hooking up’ with a Jewish woman excuses his antisemitism,” wrote another.
A third person tweeted, “No one helping get Kanye into Rehab yet? Should we be surprised?”
“He gets uglier every time I see him. He can see the inner evil,” added the fourth person.
As of now, it is uncertain whether the song will be included on West’s highly anticipated 11th studio album.

Although the brand recently cut ties with the star, a recent sensational report claimed that West had exhibited anti-Semitic acts years before, which Adidas allowed.
West reportedly painted a swastika on Adidas shoes to convey his frustration with the design of the employees In his first meeting with the company.
“Adidas employees, excited to get started, have arranged shoes and fabric swatches on a long table near a mood board studded with images. But nothing they showed that day at the company’s German headquarters captured the vision shared by Mr. West,” reports by New York Times read
“To convey how offensive he found the design, he took a sketch of the shoe and took a marker to the toe. Then he drew a swastika,” the report continued.
West’s alleged actions surprised workers who met the rapper “just a few miles from Nuremberg, where the leaders of the Third Reich were tried for crimes against humanity.”
This Western move was the first in ten years that he was constantly anti-Semitic during meetings with Adidas employees.
In one instance, the rapper allegedly “advised a Jewish Adidas manager to kiss a picture of Hitler every day.”

West’s anti-Semitic remarks caused a domino effect of consecutive losses for the star. From his deal with Adidas falling apart to his talent agency, CAA, dropping him, West has been taking hits from all sides.
The backlash was so severe that the rapper lost his billionaire status. Forbes revealed last year that the “Hurricane” singer was no longer a millionaire.
The publication stated that the drop in his net worth was due to the termination of his agreement with Adidas and contracts with Gap and Balenciaga.
West is now reportedly worth around $400 million, a significant drop from his previous worth of $1.3 billion.
After the fallout from his anti-Semitic scandal, West has been under the radar and resurfaced earlier this year with a wife, Bianca Censori, with whom he has toured Europe, especially Italy, causing a stir as only he can.
