Several people who were once close to the artist formerly known as Kanye West told CNN that he has long been fascinated by Adolf Hitler — and once wanted to name an album after the Nazi leader.

A business executive who worked for West, who now goes by Ye, told CNN that the artist created a hostile work environment, in part through his “obsession” with Hitler.

“He would praise Hitler by saying how incredible it was that he was able to accumulate so much power and would talk about all the great things he and the Nazi Party achieved for the German people,” the individual told CNN.


The executive left his position and reached a settlement with West and some of his companies over workplace complaints, including harassment, which CNN has reviewed. The former executive asked not to be named due to a confidentiality agreement and fear of retribution by West. According to the agreement, West denied the executive’s allegations.

The executive told CNN that West spoke openly about reading “Mein Kampf,” Hitler’s 1925 autobiographical manifesto and expressed his “admiration” for the Nazis and Hitler for their use of propaganda.

This individual stated that people in West’s inner circle were “fully aware” of his interest in Hitler. Four sources told CNN that West had originally suggested the title “Hitler” for his 2018 album that eventually released as “Ye.” They did not want to be named, citing concern for professional retribution.


CNN has reached out to West for comment.

Universal Music Group, owner of Def Jam, which used to distribute West’s music, said in a statement to CNN Tuesday that the company’s relationship with his GOOD Music label ended last year.

“There is no place for antisemitism in our society. We are deeply committed to combating antisemitism and every other form of prejudice,” Universal Music group added.

The sources CNN spoke with did not have information about why the album was ultimately called “Ye.”

Van Lathan Jr., a former TMZ employee, who confronted West during his 2018 interview at their offices in which West said slavery “sounds like a choice,” recently claimed on a podcast that West also made antisemitic comments during their conversation that the outlet did not release publicly. That’s why Lathan said his current comments didn’t surprise him.

“I already heard him say that stuff before at TMZ,” Lathan said during an episode of the “Higher Learning” podcast earlier this month. “I mean, I was taken aback because that type of antisemitic talk is disgusting. It’s like, I’m taken aback any time anyone does that, right? But as far as [West], I knew that that was in him because when he came to TMZ, he said that stuff and they took it out of the interview. … He said something like, ‘I love Hitler, I love Nazis.’ Something to that effect when he was there. And they took it out of the interview for whatever reason. It wasn’t my decision.”

Weeks ago Van Lathan said TMZ deleted Hitler/Nazi related comments that Kanye said during that infamous appearance. There was a Coli thread, people said he was lying...

Everything Kanye has said publicly in the last few weeks makes it obvious that he has some level of admiration for Hitler and Nazism. Whether it's the fashion, the military parade choreography, the idea of one all-powerful leader, etc...it's obvious. Not to mention the anti-Jew shyt. Just a few years ago Candace Owens said if Hitler had kept his "make Germany great again" campaign in Germany she wouldn't have had a problem with it.

So these associates had no problem staying completely silent about a man with all this power and influence over companies and people having this sick admiration/love for an evil megalomaniac for all this time...but now suddenly when he's being cancelled, now it's something they feel the need to put out there? People are just naturally so cowardly and sheep-like, they like to do everything as a commune...from thinking to kicking people when they're down to forming opinions on shyt to everything else, for better or worse.

Van Lathan nor anyone else in that room found Kanye West saying "I love Adolf Hitler. I love the Nazis" worthy of informing the masses who buy his products and give him billion dollar deals and all this about until now?
