Kanye West apologizes to Kamala Harris after explicit social media post: 'I just want to say sorry to....'

Kanye West, now known as Ye, has found himself in hot water once again after posting a sexually explicit comment about former Vice President Kamala Harris on social media.

The controversial remark, made on X (formerly Twitter), referenced her defeat to Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. In a since-deleted post, he stated, "I used to want to f*** Kamala until she lost. I don't f*** losers anymore."

Following the backlash from his initial comment, Kanye made another post claiming that Democrats pressured him to remove the explicit tweet, jokingly saying, "Naw, I’m kidding. They don’t control Black people anymore. Trump 4 life." However, he later issued an apology to Harris, stating, "Kamala seems like a very nice human. I just want to say sorry to her kids." This apology was directed towards Harris's stepchildren from her marriage to Doug Emhoff.

Kanye West's erratic behavior on social media is not new; he has previously been banned from X for sharing anti-Semitic content. In his recent posts, he also proclaimed that he is back as a billionaire and expressed his support for Donald Trump, stating, "Trump’s back in office. Ye’s back a billionaire. The world might just be ok." He further claimed that he was only "warming up" and felt free to say whatever he wanted because of his wealth, as per a Female First report.

Recently, Kanye reignited old tensions with Taylor Swift by revealing that she is the only person he follows on Instagram. This reference brought back memories of their infamous feud that began at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye interrupted Swift's acceptance speech.
