Kanye’s Orthodox Jewish Heritage

IS KANYE JEWISH? RECENTLY KANYE WEST SAID ABOUT HIS JEWISH HERITAGE A FAMILY OF ORTHODOX DOWN THE BLOCK THAT'S FROM ME THINK HE SAYS ALL NO MATTER THEY ALWAYS COME BACK

A mockumentary-style street interview follows a man investigating Kanye West’s supposed Jewish heritage in Brooklyn. Orthodox Jewish men appear as “childhood friends,” and the increasingly absurd claims about Kanye’s bar mitzvah, Jewish ad-libs, and chanting culminate in a solemn repeated song line: “They always come back.” The joke parodies Kanye’s controversial antisemitic remarks by presenting an obviously fabricated, deadpan explanation for them, making it useful as an absurd reaction to someone returning to an old habit or situation.

Recently, Kanye West said he can't be an anti-Semite since he is Jewish himself. I am Jew also. Do your research on it. I wanted to learn more about his Jewish heritage. So I went to his childhood friends to find out more. That's where he lived. That was his childhood home, right up there. It turns out Kanye is indeed from a family of Orthodox Jews right here in Brooklyn, New York. I mean, some people called him the perfect Jew. By Bar Mitzvah Kanye. Really? His bar mitzvah was in the synagogue down the block. By lighting the minaret I used to skip the candles by accident and I always just say, Kanye, all the lights! So that's actually from you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all the lights. That's for me. His ad-libs are Jewish fetches. Kimaran na manhoj ma kei tofush patsi. So this is what Kanye was chanting every day for years. He would sit right here. Why do you think he says all these negative things about Jews? He's just a self-heading Jew like me, like you. So Kanye wasn't lying, he really is one of the most Jewish people ever. No matter where you may roam, you can always come back home. No matter where you may roam, you can always come back home. They'll come back, they always come back.
