    Premier League club, Bournemouth will stop playing the song of American rapper Kanye West “Power” at Vitality Stadium from this season.

    What did Kanye West say?

    Earlier in October 2022 Kanye West tweeted that he was “going death con 3 ON JEWISH PEOPLE”. When the comment which has since been deleted started becoming a scandal, the American rapper came out to insist that he wasn’t “Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also”.

    Kanye West added: “You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda”.

    The rapper made the antisemitic comments after accusing record producer Sean “Diddy” Combs of being controlled by “the Jewish people” in a post on Instagram.
