Ye’s Australia Visa Canceled Over Antisemitic Song Lyrics: ‘He’s Made a Lot of Offensive Comments’

Kanye West's visa has been canceled by Australia over his antisemitic song lyrics in "Heil Hitler."

According to Reuters, the country’s Minister for Immigration and Citizenship Tony Burke revealed Wednesday (July 2) that his office has taken the step following the release of antisemitic song “Heil Hitler” in May. “At a time of rising antisemitism in Australia and increasing vilification, his presence in the country, revolting anti-Jewish propaganda and incitement, and abhorrent rhetoric poses a significant risk to the Jewish community.” The visa cancelation is just the latest consequence Ye has faced as a result of his antisemitic remarks, much of which he has shared in deeply offensive posts on X since late 2022.
