🚨Kanye West pede perdão por suas atitudes em carta aberta!
“Há 25 anos, um acidente de carro quebrou meu maxilar e lesionou meu lobo frontal direito. Só diagnosticaram em 2023. Isso causou danos graves na minha saúde mental e levou ao bipolar tipo 1.
Na mania, você nega tudo. Acha que está vendo claro, mas está perdendo o controle. Disse e fiz coisas que lamento profundamente.
Alguns que mais amo, tratei pior.
Gravitei pro símbolo mais destrutivo, a suástica, e vendi camisetas com ela. Me arrependo e estou mortificado. Não sou nazista nem antissemita. Amo o povo judeu.
Pra comunidade negra — que me segurou nos piores momentos — sou a base de quem eu sou. Desculpem por ter decepcionado vocês.
Amo a gente.
Em 2025, um episódio maníaco de 4 meses destruiu minha vida. Agora estou em tratamento sério: medicação, terapia, exercício, vida limpa. Ganhei clareza. Estou focando em arte positiva pra ajudar o mundo.
Não peço simpatia nem passe livre. Só paciência e compreensão
enquanto volto pra casa.
Com amor, Ye”
Ye issues an apology for his antisemitic comments
“I regret and am deeply mortified by my actions in that state, and am committed to accountability, treatment, and meaningful change. It does not excuse what I did though… I am not a Nazi or an antisemite. I love Jewish people… To the black community - which held me down through all of the highs and lows and the darkest of times. The black community is, unquestionably, the foundation of who I am. I am so sorry to have let you down. I love us.
In early 2025, I fell into a four-month long manic episode of psychotic, paranoid and impulsive behavior that destroyed my life. As the situation became increasingly unsustainable, there were times I didn’t want to be here anymore.
Having bipolar disorder is notable state of constant mental illness. When you go into a manic episode, you are ill at that point. When you are not in an episode, you are completely ‘normal’. And that’s when the wreckage from the illness hits the hardest. Hitting rock bottom a few months ago, my wife encouraged me to finally get help.
I have found comfort in Reddit forums of all places. Different people speak of being in manic or depressive episodes of a similar nature. I read their stories and realized that I was not alone. It’s not just me who ruins their entire life once a year despite taking meds every day and being told by the so-called best doctors in the world that I am not bipolar, but merely experiencing “symptoms of autism.”
My words as a leader in my community have global impact and influence. In my mania, I lost complete sight of that.
As I find my new baseline and new center through an effective regime of medication, therapy, exercise, and clean living, I have newfound, much-needed clarity. I am pouring my energy into positive, meaningful art: music, clothing, design, and other new ideas to help the world.
I’m not asking for sympathy, or a free pass, though I aspire to earn your forgiveness. I write today simply to ask for your patience and understanding as I find my way home.”
With love,
Ye
