Kanye West says he wants to leave hate behind.
The “fugitive” rapper, now legally known as Ye, published a series of messages on Thursday in X, starting with: “I have finished with anti -Semitism.”
“I love all people,” he continued in a wave of consecutive publications. “God forgives me for the pain I have caused. I forgive those who have caused me pain. Thank God.”
Explaining what caused the change, he added: “I simply get a facetime from my children and I want to save the world again. Share peace. Share love.”

His negative attention campaign intensified earlier this year when he debuted a shirt with the Esviniora on the Yeezy brand website, repeated his praise for Adolf Hitler and called himself directly a “Nazi.”
