Kanye West has some new beef — this time with Howard Stern!
It all began when the 68-yr-outdated radio persona didn’t maintain again on The Howard Stern Show final week and blasted “douchebag” Ye for his continued show of antisemitism. Howard mentioned on the time:
“I almost don’t want to give any energy to this Kanye West character. I don’t know much about Kanye West. I’m not big into the rap scene, but he is … I’m really tired of people excusing his behavior by saying, ‘Well, he’s just mentally ill.’”
Co-host Robin Quivers then responded:
“So was Hitler and someone elected him to run a country.”
By now that Kanye has been in scorching water for carrying a “White Lives Matter” shirt at Paris Fashion Week and making fixed antisemitic remarks like threatening to go “death con 3 on Jewish people.” And as an alternative of acknowledging his offensive and vile actions, he has continued to double down on his antisemitic feedback in a number of interviews – together with with Tucker Carlson Tonight, the Drink Champs podcast, and Piers Morgan Uncensored. His conduct has resulted within the expertise company CAA dropping him and style manufacturers like Vogue, Balenciaga, Foot Locker, Gap, and Adidas distancing themselves from him.

While many have slammed information shops for giving Kanye air time throughout this controversy, Howard agrees with the eye “a lot of media organizations” are giving the scandal as a result of they’re “exposing him.” Growing up Jewish, the previous America’s Got Talent decide recalled how he skilled a ton of antisemitism as folks would begin “fights”:
“…groups of people with chains hitting me all because they’ve been taught the Jews are evil and killed Jesus. What the f**k. I didn’t kill Jesus.”
Speaking about Kanye’s interview on Chris Cuomo’s new present, he slammed the style designer’s followers for utilizing his psychological well being struggles as an excuse for his antisemitic outbursts and problematic conduct:
“But anyway, Kanye was on the Chris Cuomo show, and good lord, you gotta hear the s**t this guy’s into, and f**k this mental illness, self-defense thing that he’s into, you know, like, ‘Oh yeah, he’s just mentally ill, don’t worry about it.’ … If he’s so mentally ill, why don’t they appoint a conservator over his money like they did with the poor Britney Spears?”
He went on to share a clip from the chat with Cuomo, throughout which Kanye claimed the “Jewish underground media mafia” canceled his exhibits at SoFi Stadium, spreading the concept that he’s “crazy” and by no means calling him a “billionaire” (which he now not is btw), “inventor,” “tycoon,” or “visionary.” Basically, it’s the identical dangerous antisemitic tropes and conspiracy theories Ye has been spewing over the previous couple of weeks. To which Howard fired again on his present:
“Guess what, douchebag? When they write about me, they call me the shock jock – you don’t have control over – you’re a rapper, that is what you are, that’s how you became famous. If a newspaper article doesn’t point out the fact that you’re some sort of designer or genius, maybe that’s not because he’s Jewish, but maybe because he just doesn’t put that much thought into who the f**k you are and what your business is.”
Howard then mentioned the entire state of affairs is “so depressing,” including:
“Kanye used to be fun crazy – now he’s like Hitler.”

Unsurprisingly, Kanye didn’t like being referred to as out by Howard, and simply as we’ve seen with anybody who has slammed his disgusting conduct, he determined to lash out on the writer. During an look on the Lex Fridman Podcast Monday, the daddy of 4 as soon as once more talked about his antisemitic rhetoric and had a powerful response to Howard’s feedback, saying:
“What is the version of the apology short of kissing Howard Stern’s d**k? That’s the whole point, Howard Stern, nobody wants to kiss your d**k so shut the f**k up! By the way, I’m antagonizing you, Howard Stern, I used to be a fan of you; now you’re just doing clickbait like everybody else, now you’re just a sad old man Howard. Now, Howard Stern, this is the first time anyone’s said your name in years – your family doesn’t say your name unless they’re calling to get their bills paid.”
Ye then contemplated if Howard could be “screaming at” him over his comeback, including:
“I think he’s just jealous – not just jealous of my c**k, he’s jealous that I started my campaign earlier than him. You gotta let go of that jealousy, Howard.”
Whoa! Wonder what Howard should say about Kanye’s feedback about him… Reactions? Let us know within the feedback.
