Kanye West is, according to many, a musical savant, but that hasn't stopped streaming services from pulling the third single from his controversial new album Cuck. Titled "Heil Hitler", the new single is not available on digital streaming platforms, and the artist known as Ye is not happy about it.
“Heil Hitler by Ye has been banned by all digital streaming platforms,” Ye wrote on X before pointing out what he calls a double standard. “While Rednecks by Randy Newman remains streamable. They’re literally keeping the n****s down.”

While Newman's song does feature racial slurs, the song is a satirical jab at southern white folk. "Heil Hitler", meanwhile, features gang vocals of people chanting "Heil Hitler" over and over before a brief sample from an actual Adolf Hitler speech.
"Man, these people took my kids from me, then they froze my bank account / I got so much anger in me, got no way to take it out / Think I'm stuck in the matrix, where the fuck is my nitrous? / Yes I am a cuck, I like when people fuck on my bitch," West rhymes in "Heil Hitler" (transcribed by XXL). "N****s see my Twitter but they don't see how I be feeling / So I became a Nazi, yes bitch, I'm the villain."
"They don't understand the things I say on Twitter / All my n ****s Nazis, n****, Heil Hitler," he repeats in the hook.
West also released a video for the song, which is available below if you're, for some reason, so inclined:
