Kanye West has clashed with Piers Morgan during the rapper's recent appearance on TalkTV.
The 'Stronger' rapper - who has legally changed his name to Ye - appeared on Piers' Uncensored show on Wednesday night (October 19), during which, he was challenged on several comments and statements he has made over the last few weeks.
Per Sky News, 45-year-old Ye recently made several comments many deemed to be anti-Semitic. On October 9, the rapper tweeted:
"I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE. The funny thing is I actually can’t be anti-Semitic because black people are actually Jews also. You guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone whoever opposes your agenda."
When challenged on the now-deleted tweet, Ye told Piers: "You don't hold accountability to my pain. You're being a Karen."
However, the British host quickly fired back, telling Ye: "I'm not being a Karen. I'm not a Karen and I'm not going to cancel you and I'm not going to uncensor you. I'm simply going to challenge you on what you're saying."
"I think you don't understand the pain that you've been causing with some of these comments," Piers added.
To which, Ye interrupted: "Oh my God. God forbid one comment could cause people to feel any of the pain that my people have went through for years. Even like, the Blacks being ushered to the left during the Civil Rights movement. No one has cared about Black people."
Continuing to challenge the 'Gold Digger' hit maker, Morgan said: "My question to you is, do you now regret saying 'death con 3 on Jewish people', are you sorry you said that?"
"No, absolutely not… absolutely not," Ye responded.
Elsewhere in the interview, Morgan continues to press the rapper, telling Ye: "Racism is racism and you know that I think, don’t you?"
"Yeah, obviously, that’s why I said it," Ye replies, causing Piers to retort: "So you said it knowing it was racist?"
"Yes, I fought fire with fire," Ye said. "I’m not here to get hosed down. I’m a different type of freedom fighter."
Nevertheless, the artist formerly known as Kanye would issue an apology, adding that his comments in the tweet came out of personal hurt.
"I will say I’m sorry for the people I hurt with the 'death con', with the confusion," he said. "I feel like I caused hurt and confusion and I am sorry for the families of the people who had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through.
"And that I used my platform where you say, I hurt people, and I was hurt."
