According to the Twitch star, a phone discussion between Adin Ross and Kanye West included shocking antisemitism.
Many fans anticipated Adin Ross hosting Kanye West on his Twitch channel, keen to hear what the rapper would say this time. After all, the rapper has a history for making provocative remarks and leaving interviews when he receives criticism.
Why Adin Ross Canceled Kanye West Interview?
Ross was excited to have him on his channel, but things swiftly deteriorated as he began making the final preparations, according to Metro via MSN.
During a recent broadcast, Ross indicated that he will not be meeting with Kanye, without providing a particular reason other than stating that he will not allow his platform to be used to propagate hatred. A week later, on December 20, Ross went on Dj Akademiks' Off The Record show and revealed why the rapper ultimately opted not to join him on Twitch.
The streamer said that while messaging with Kanye, he said something that may have angered Kanye and led him to believe that Ross was a "enemy." Ross did not disclose what he said to Kanye West, merely the rapper's claimed response: "You Jews can't tell me what I can and cannot say."
According to Ross, that was the last time the two men communicated, as he opted against attempting to secure a Twitch interview with the rapper. The streamer also refuted reports that Twitch or "higher-ups" shut down the show, stating that his last encounter with Kanye was the real cause.
When Ross originally revealed that he would platform Kanye on his Twitch channel, many of his followers were surprised by his move. Since Ross was raised Jewish, Kanye's antisemitic sentiments were the primary source of worry.
However, the streamer is no stranger to contentious characters, as he has previously co-streamed with Andrew Tate. A few days earlier, he pranked Tate by donning a bald hat and imitating him (without the sexist words), which Tate appeared to find hilarious.
Although Kanye West will not be joining Adin Ross on Twitch, political streamer Hasanabi has previously stated that he would welcome Kanye on his show "in a heartbeat."
Pusha T Cut Ties with Kanye West Company
Meanwhile, Pusha T has severed all relations with G.O.O.D. Music, Kanye West's old record company. From 2010 until the release of his Grammy-nominated album 'It's Almost Dry' in 2022, he remained signed to Kanye West's label.
Per WIO News, Pusha T said that he severed connections with Kanye West following his recent anti-semitic remarks. Late in October, the company's parent label, Def Jam, severed its economic ties with G.O.O.D.
In addition, the rapper revealed he has not talked with Kanye West since the scandal began. The first quarrel occurred in 2016, following Kanye West's vocal endorsement of Donald Trump. Pusha T stated, "People must also remember. It's nothing unusual for me to disagree with him on political issues and such matters."
Pusha T made his debut on Kanye West's album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy with the song "Runaway." Then, Kanye West acted as executive producer on Pusha's solo albums, including as 'My Name is My Name' (2013) and 'Daytona' (2018).
Furthermore, Adidas will offer a new range of Yeezy-designed sneakers without Kanye West's logo in the next year. Adidas terminated their almost decade-long contract with 45-year-old Kanye West in October due to his anti-Semitic remarks and social media assaults on the brand's management, whom he accused of'stealing' his ideas.
They said that they will cease manufacture of all Yeezy-branded merchandise and cease all payments to Ye and his firms. However, Adidas CFO Harm Ohlmeyer stated that the German sportswear manufacturer retains "sole ownership of all design rights pertaining to existing merchandise, as well as prior and new hues under the agreement." Adidas might utilize these rights as early as 2023, he continued, Daily Mail reported.
