Kanye West made his “bigotry and antisemitism well-known,” according to a former employee’s new lawsuit.
Murphy Aficionado, who worked for West for nine months beginning in October 2022, is suing the rapper for 12 complaints, including discrimination, hostile work environment and labor violations.
West’s alleged “antisemitic tirades and conspiracies” were a “daily occurrence,” according to the project manager.
“Often, these outbursts involved how Jews controlled the Kardashians,” alleged the suit, obtained by Page Six Thursday. “Other times, Ye recounted how Jews were going after him and his money. Those very same days, Ye would incessantly yell at his staff.”
Not only did Aficionado accuse West, 47, of “preaching” his racist “dogma almost daily” in the filing, but he alleged that the Grammy winner once wore a swastika T-shirt.
West allegedly emerged in the hateful clothing after pausing a business meeting to have “loud” sex with his wife, Bianca Censori.
When West allegedly asked Aficionado whether he “like[d]” the shirt, the staffer replied, “It definitely is unique.”
Aficionado also highlighted some of the “disparaging remarks about Jewish people” that West “frequently” made.
Alleged examples included, “The Jews are out to get me. They froze my bank account. The Jews got [ex-wife] Kim [Kardashian] and my kids. … The Jews convinced Kim. She has Jewish masters.”
Additionally, Aficionado claimed the songwriter made hurtful comments about his traditional Filipino tattoos.
The fashion designer allegedly told his employee that the ink was “ugly and should be removed.”
West’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
West infamously went on an antisemitic tirade in 2022 that resulted in Adidas cutting ties with the Yeezy creator.
The following year, the New York Times reported that Ye allegedly drew a swastika in his first meeting with the brand.
West also allegedly admired “master marketer” Adolf Hitler’s “command of propaganda” and “advised a Jewish Adidas manager to kiss a picture” of the dictator.
