Ye Claims His ‘Hitler’ Single Is Banned From ‘All Digital Streaming Platforms’

Ye (formerly Kanye West) attempted to release his new song titled “Heil Hitler,” but he claims the controversial track was taken down by streaming platforms and is banned by DSPs.

West has been teasing the single for some time and he uploaded his new track to SoundCloud on Thursday (May 8), but it’s since been removed from the platform.

“Heil Hitler by Ye has been banned by all digital streaming platforms,” Ye wrote on X before pointing out the double standard he sees in streaming censorship. “While Rednecks by Randy Newman remains streamable They’re literally keeping the n—-s down.”

The track finds Ye addressing his custody issues over his four children with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, while also claiming that banks are freezing his accounts and rapping about his nitrous use. “With all this money and fame, I still can’t get my kids back/ With all this money and fame I still can’t see my children,” he raps.

West also repeats the titular phrase on the song’s refrain and claims he “became a Nazi yet b—h, I’m the villain.” The horn-tinged outro features a portion of a German speech from Adolf Hitler.

Billboard has reached out to reps for Ye as well as SoundCloud and Spotify.

The song has been teased by Ye in recent weeks as various clips showed on Sneako’s stream while he was working on the song, which followed his series of antisemitic X tirades praising Hitler.

It’s been a turbulent week for West, who stormed off the set of a combative interview with Piers Morgan on Tuesday (May 6) within minutes of it beginning after the Uncensored host got Ye’s follower count on X wrong.

“You’re not gonna take inches off my di–, bro.” the Chicago native said before he left the interview. “I’m a gift, bro. Why do all you people in media act like you haven’t played my songs at your weddings, or graduations or at funerals or when your child was born?”

He continued: “You take someone like that’s living, like a [John] Lennon or a Michael Jackson. That nuance right there is idiotic. It just shows the hate that you put out for people that put out love. There’s so much love in the art that I put out. This is what you get for now, we can circle back when you can count.”
