Kanye West rants as hackers leak his 'pro-Hitler' album, donate proceeds to Holocaust Museum: 'Proves everything I say'

Hindustan Times20-05-2025
On Sunday, reports stated that Kanye West's entire upcoming album was leaked on Discord. The album, titled WW3, was leaked immediately after someone else leaked a track list of another of his album - Cuck - on YouTube. The rapper has now responded to the leaks and said it 'proves' everything he has been saying.
Cuck setlist was eventually taken down from YouTube but not before the hackers had posted a message criticising Kanye for including a pro-Adolf Hitler song in the album and glorifying Nazi philosophy. "All proceeds from this album group buy will be donated to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum," they reportedly wrote, adding, 'Glorifying fascism is not 'art', 'love speech' is just an excuse to say outrageous s**t for attention. Kanye West is a 50-year-old spineless braindead deadbeat drug addict porn addict Nazi b***h.'
In response, Kanye took to Twitter (now X) on Monday and wrote, "Somebody got a drive and threw it on YouTube and said this is CUCK. 'What I love about getting blocked on DSPs and having songs leaked and shows cancelled is… It proves everything I'm saying and why I'm saying.'
The cancelled show Kanye referred to in his angry rant is his now-cancelled concert in Korea. South Korean e-commerce company Coupang has cancelled a Kanye West concert scheduled for late May "due to recent controversies involving the artist", the company and a ticket vendor said on Monday.
Coupang and the Interpark ticket outlet did not elaborate on the controversies involving West. The rapper's latest controversy involves a song released this month entitled Heil Hitler, which praises the Nazi leader and architect of the Holocaust.
Coupang and Interpark said all the tickets that had been sold for the single show in Incheon on May 31 would be fully refunded. Coupang, whose streaming service, Coupang Play, was organising the concert, also suspended the sale of merchandise by West's Yeezy fashion line on Monday, it said.
The rapper also addressed rumours that Uncle, one of the tracks on the album, is about his wife Bianca Censori. "UNCLE is not on CUCK and is not about my wife," his tweet read.

'She got it all wrong': Kannadigas slam stand-up comic Aiyyo Shraddha over ‘Mile Sur' satire on Hindi imposition

Stand-up comedian Shraddha Jain, widely known by her online persona Aiyyo Shraddha, has found herself at the centre of an online storm after her recent satirical performance touched a nerve with many Kannadigas. The controversy erupted after she released a video from her So Mini Things series ahead of India's 79th Independence Day,(Aiyyo Shraddha/YouTube) The controversy erupted after she released a video from her So Mini Things series ahead of India's 79th Independence Day, in which she reflects on national unity through the lens of the iconic patriotic song Mile Sur Mera Tumhara. The video, meant to be a light-hearted tribute titled 'A Wish for India,' opens with Shraddha crediting the 1988 national integration anthem for helping her learn several Indian languages. But as the act progresses, she mimics an imagined backlash the song might face if released today, joking about states like Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu resisting Hindi. Her quip,'Why is there so much Hindi in this song?', triggered sharp reactions online, particularly among those opposing Hindi imposition in southern states. Many felt the satire missed the mark and instead mocked those resisting linguistic dominance. Reactions online Kannada writer Guruprasad DN, in a post originally shared in Kannada, called the skit misplaced and urged comedians to deeply reflect on what, and whom, their satire targets. "As society gradually gains some discernment, questions must arise on various issues; the matter of what humor or satire should be directed against or about should be of utmost importance to any artist," he wrote. 'Today, Hindi imposition is a very serious issue. The central government is pursuing a policy of making Hindi dominate over other languages. This is having a detrimental impact on the lives of ordinary people,' he noted. In such times, he said, humor must serve as a critique of power, not of the people resisting it. Watch her full video here: Other users echoed this sentiment, saying Shraddha, who hails from Mangaluru and now lives in Bengaluru, failed to grasp the depth of Kannada linguistic pride. 'As an outsider, Kannada pride is a foreign concept to you,' one post read. Another user said, "That song was a testimony that India respects all languages and its people. But she got it wrong, indirectly attacking those who oppose the imposition of one language over others. Poisonous!" Some, however, defended the comedian. A well-known cartoonist Satish Acharya called the piece 'hilarious and intelligent,' while others urged viewers to revisit the video with a more critical lens.
