Kanye West finds himself under scrutiny again as Kevin “KB” Blatt, a noted Hollywood fixer, revived serious claims about the rapper’s past amid rumors of Ye‘s breakup with Bianca Censori.
Blatt, who is of Jewish descent, used Instagram to bring attention to a sex tape controversy from 2012, sharing intimate details about a video involving West that was mired in financial secrecy.
“Hey @ye, remember that sex tape I helped keep off the market back in 2012… in Vegas?” Blatt posted to his Instagram Stories, alongside a photograph of a younger, shirtless West. “Yeah, this JEW hasn’t forgotten what a terrible performance and a small [issue] you had…
“Why don’t you GO F-K Your favorite person in the world YOURSELF.”
This controversy has arisen on the heels of a string of extreme anti-Semitic comments made by Ye on X.com, previously known as Twitter, where he declared himself a Nazi and voiced admiration for Adolf Hitler, joining in on anti-Semitic conspiracies that suggest Jewish control over global events.
Moreover, West began selling t-shirts featuring swastikas online, which has reportedly prompted his wife to seek a divorce, amidst his ongoing legal troubles due to inappropriate conduct.
“I think he needs to learn a lesson,” Blatt remarked to PageSix.com about West. “The next doctor or lawyer he visits, he should remember that he never knows who could be Jewish.”
“I’m tired of his anti-Semitic tirades. It’s high time someone put an end to Kanye West.”
West acknowledges the video’s existence
The existence of the tape is not surprising. West‘s cousin, Lawrence Franklin, revealed to dailymail.com that a family member discovered a compromising video of West on a laptop he had given as a gift.
Franklin stated that this tape, showing Ye in a private moment with an unidentified woman, was found around 2012 while he was involved with Kim Kardashian. The laptop was ultimately retrieved for $250,000, with all recorded content destroyed afterward.
This event inspired West‘s 2016 song “Real Friends,” where he raps about having to pay to regain his laptop due to the compromising content it contained.
