Kanye West unleashed a shocking anti-Semitic rant which saw him scream ‘Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye! Sponsor that!’ during an event in Las Vegas on Friday.
The rapper, 46, who was slammed for anti-Semitic lyrics in new track Vultures last month, gave an unhinged speech to a crowd of people in which he claimed ‘all the rich f***s’ in the room have their kids in ‘Zionist schools’ and that daughter North, 10, had destroyed couches in her house so she could join him on tour.
In a video obtained by TMZ, West falsely claims: ‘It’s 60 million of us in America, 60 million Jews in the world.
’50 per cent of our d:eaths is ab:ortion, 25 per cent of us go to p:rison… raise your hand if you ever got an ab:ortion
‘If we were in a Jewish… every mother would raise their hands

The rapper, 46, who was slammed for anti-Semitic lyrics in new track Vultures last month, gave an unhinged speech to a crowd of people in which he claimed ‘all the rich f***s’ in the room have their kids in ‘Zionist schools’ and that daughter North, 10, had destroyed couches in her house so she could join him on tour.
‘Who’s going to make the hospitals, though? He’s a Zionist, Trump. This is what I’ve been trying to tell you. Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye, third party, sponsor that!’
He added: ‘They cant f*****g touch me because God cover me.’
Shouting at the crowd to ‘shut the f*** up’ he said: ‘I dont give a f*** about life or d:eath, I get visitation with my kids’ before adding: ‘F*** Balenciaga’.
West also slammed the school his children attend and said: ‘North ripped up the motherf****ng couches in the house’ to be able to travel with her father on his trip.
This comes after West was branded a ‘disgusting human being’ by fans after the rapper wore a black Ku Klux Klan type hood in his latest attempt to shock in Miami on Tuesday.
The artist put on a fabric head covering featuring a point at the top at an overnight listening event with collaborator Ty Dolla Sign as they performed their controversial track Vultures which features vile lyrics about a Jewish woman.
Vultures features the ‘offensive’ lyrics: ‘How am I anti-Semitic? I just f***ed a Jewish b****.’
This is not the first time that Kanye has worn a black hood reminiscent of a KKK one as he sported one at the beginning of his music video for BLKKK SKKKN HEAD in 2013.

The star was slammed as ‘disgusting’ and ‘weird’ for wearing the ensemble with daughter North onstage nearby, while his daughter Chicago, five and son Saint, eight were also present.
One fan wrote: ‘Kanye wearing a KKK hood and Black people are sitting idly by. F*** him and his music bro.
Another typed: ‘Just a remark that Kanye West is a[n] anti semite. He hates the Jews and wants them dead. He abuses women. He is a disgusting human being.’
Others expressed concern for North, writing: ‘Kanye West wearing black KKK hat at his listening party with his daughter behind him’ and ‘North looks so uncomfortable with Kanye wearing a KKK mask.’
North performed a verse confirming that she is going to be in the upcoming album Vultures which is set to be released Friday.
This comes weeks after Kanye was slammed by Jewish organizations who branded him ‘pathetic and sad’ over vile lyrics about a Jewish woman in his latest song.
The lyrics prompted a furious backlash among some fans at the time and has now prompted condemnation from the American Jewish Committee among others.
‘To fuel the flames of antisemitism and promote such bile to his millions of followers, especially at this fraught and dangerous time for the Jewish community, is unforgivable,’ spokesman Richard Hirschhaut told TMZ.
He added that the West’s choice is unsurprising however, given his previous antisemitic remarks.
But he said this latest scandal, ‘seems particularly pathetic and sad.’
The Anti Defamation League also joined criticism, telling the outlet: ‘At a time of rising antisemitism worldwide, it’s disgusting to see Kanye once again use his platform to spew Jew hatred.’
West has a documented history of antisemitism and last year lost out on a number of partnership deals after going on an explosive anti-Semitic rant.
The ex-husband of Kim Kardashian vowed to go ‘d:eath con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE’ in a string of sick posts online.
Shortly after the tweet, the Praise God rapper told Piers Morgan he only meant to take aim at certain specific Jews, who he felt exploited him.
When the talk show host contended the comments were ‘as racist as anything you’ve been through,’ the Gold Digger rapper retorted, ‘that’s why I said it. I fought fire with fire.’
In an interview with right wing talk show host Alex Jones in early December, Kanye praised Hitler for his ‘redeeming qualities’.
He also maintained that the ‘Holocaust is not what happened’ and promoted the conspiracy theory that Black people are the real Jews.
West’s rants saw him lose out on lucrative contracts with The Gap, Adidas and Balenciaga and more.
He was also dropped by his management team at Creative Artists Agency.
The rapper has been in the Middle East recording new work with collaborators Ty Dolla $ign, Chris Brown, Bump J and others.
He performed ‘Vultures’ for the first time at Lil Durk’s show in Blu Dubai alongside the rapper and Ty Dolla $ign.
West was joined in Dubai by wife Bianca Censori, with the two reunited following her trip home to Australia to see family.
Other video showed the couple and West’s collaborators dancing to the track, which was released last Wednesday.
His decision to debut the song comes at a time when anti-Semitic attacks are on the rise amid the ongoing Israel Hamas conflict.
Racism against Jewish people and Muslims has soared in the wake of the October 7 attack.
According to the Anti-Defamation League the number of anti-Semitic incidents increased fourfold.
The watchdog counted 312 anti-Semitic incidents between October 7-23, ranging from harassment to vandalism and physical assaults.
Jewish organizations recently slammed Kanye over his new track ‘Vultures’ which features the lyrics, ‘How am I anti-Semitic? I just f***ed a Jewish b****.’
The American Jewish Committee branded West ‘particularly pathetic and sad’ and described his lyrics as ‘unforgivable’

Meanwhile college campuses ands schools have seen a notable spike, according to the American Jewish Committee.
A record number of incidents were reported, with nearly 100 incidents occurring at US universities between October 7 and 30.
The soaring number of incidents has prompted the White House to introduce a series of measures to tackle the ‘alarming’ rise in both anti-Semitic and Islamophobic attacks.
