Spotify, SoundCloud and other platforms have pulled the song, but its spread underscores the challenges tech platforms face in removing content that violate their policies.
Spotify, SoundCloud and other tech platforms have worked to remove a new song from Ye that praises Adolf Hitler, but the song and its video have continued to proliferate online including across X, where it has racked up millions of views.
On various mainstream and alternative tech platforms this week, Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been able to share his latest song, titled “Heil Hitler,” along with its companion title, “WW3,” which similarly glorifies Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust.
While some platforms have taken steps to attempt to pull down the song, others have seemingly let it spread freely.
“Nazi Song Big Hit On Nazi Platform”
This might be nitpicking, but NBC should be more precise.
which similarly glorifies Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust
Adolf Hitler wanted and ordered the extermination of the Jews and other “undesirables”, no doubt about that or his culpability. But the role of “architect”, the person who designed the logistics for mass killing, is normally ascribed to other people. Adolf Eichmann, the guy the Mossad captured in Argentinia in 1960, is usually called the “Architect of the Holocaust”. Sometimes together with Reinhard Heydrich and Heinrich Himmler.
It’s not even a good song.
80% of it is him and a crowd of black guys (who may or may not have been AI generated or paid a tonne to get in on the white supremacist grift) chanting “N***a heil Hitler!” The other 20% comes across as some kind of incel or MRA manifesto, where he’s whinging about being cancelled and denied access to his kids.
Kanye has well and truly lost the plot. He needs to be detained in a psych ward…
Stop calling him Ye, it’s so cringe and stupid. His name is Kanye West and he’s a black white supremacist
The song doesn’t really glorify Hitler. And the title “architect of the Holocaust” is usually attributed to Adolf Eichmann.
That being said, the song is antisemitic and tasteless. West appears to blame all his personal issues on the Jews, which is deeply pathetic.
Just in case people actually believed Elon’s whining that he’s total not a Nazi you guys, cut it out wah.
I’m puzzled how people are viewing songs… is that like being so high you can feel the moon?
I’m curious how can this guy release a song titled “heil hitler” and still in the news?
When did he rename himself Ye?
What a load of fucking bullshit. They must think we are dumb.
OH no we can’t find his music to delete it guess we’ll just keep cashing in on the listens because it’s viral right now then delete it in a week.
Fucking clowns
But let Disney copyright claim it and it wou vanish overnight.
I don’t believe this bullshit

I’m still hoping Washington, Oregon, and California become part of B.C.
Um, you have to be a special sort of moron to be Black and a fan of Hitler…sure, those Nazis might be your bud for a little while, and maybe use your money and fame to fund their cause. Right up until the Night of the Long Knives 2.0.

Oh, that Hitler…
Thought it was Gay Hitler at first for sure.
Ah, so the son of George Washington Hitler became a doctor? Good for him!
If only
