Amid the ongoing backlash against Kanye West’s antisemitic remarks, CNN reports that the rapper has a longstanding fascination with Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.
“He would praise Hitler by saying how incredible it was that he was able to accumulate so much power and would talk about all the great things he and the Nazi Party achieved for the German people,” a business executive who used to work with West tells CNN.
The network quotes four other people as saying that West, who now goes by Ye, wanted to name his 2018 album “Hitler.”
