Kanye West and Piers Morgan’s “very white” conversation concerning the rapper’s viral anti-Semitic tweet from 2022 still makes fans laugh. The nearly two-hour discussion aired on “Piers Uncensored” in October after West was banned from Instagram.

Meta temporarily banished the hitmaker following backlash from the Jewish community over a post that allegedly featured West exchanging text messages with Sean “Diddy” Combs.

In a screenshot, the controversial producer-turned-rapper wrote: “I’ll use you as an example to show the Jews who told you to call me that no one can threaten me or influence me. I told you this is war.”

His account was soon closed for violating the platform’s rules.

As a result, the artist who wrote “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” tweeted and then deleted the post: “I’m a little sleepy today but when I wake up I’m going to death con 3 for JEWS. The funny thing is I can’t actually be anti-Semitic because black people are also Jews. You were playing with me and trying to exclude anyone who opposed your views.”

When he appeared on Morgan’s show, the 2 men had a public spat full of interruptions and viral audio morsels. One of the moments that individuals still speak about is when West called the British journalist a “boy,” apparently with the identical intent as racist white individuals who call black men boys, treating it as an act of humiliation.

When West argued that “millions of people had Death Con 3 in their contracts” — including NFL and NBA players, musicians and actors — Morgan chimed in. “I think you should tell the Jews I’m sorry for the offensive language I used in that tweet. I wouldn’t do it again. That’s what I meant. I think people would respect you if you said that,” he said.

The Grammy winner tried to clarify that when athletes, actors and artists have their contracts reviewed for fairness, he would apologize only then, but Morgan interrupted him to point out that the controversial tweet didn’t mention any such thing.

“Brother, yes, brother! Yes, yes, brother! I didn’t finish. I didn’t finish my sentence. I didn’t finish my brilliant idea,” the Chicago native said as Morgan continued to chime in. “Yes, boy. Yes, boy,” West began.

The presenter joked, “Don’t call me boy,” though his words were ignored. Apparently irritated that his prose had been interrupted, West pressed on.

“I told you — don’t treat me like a boy. I’ll finish my sentence and the idea… Man, I was in the middle of a sentence, boy,” he said. Elsewhere within the interview, the embattled star would call the host a “Karen,” further lamenting the staggering issues of racial inequality.

When the clip resurfaced on social media, fans once more saw it as more entertaining than informative concerning the Yeezy founder’s views.

“There’s something funny about a black man calling a grown British man a boy,” the article reads.How on Instagram. Another person said: “They’ve been calling us boyfriends for decades, I love that Ye flipped it, they azz.”

Others applauded West for fighting back against Morgan, with one fan commenting: “I was so glad he treated Piers like that. Piers always tries to drown people out.” While a fourth person was certain that shutting out the guests was a strategic ploy Morgan used menacingly.

“He is trained to interrupt or override you so you can make a mistake or say something wrong that will be misinterpreted,” they wrote. The interview abruptly ended when West announced he was “adjourned.” West then walked out of the camera’s field of vision, with muffled audio capturing his movements as he removed the microphone.

Over the past two years, the results of a number of anti-Semitic remarks have come to light.

One of the results of his words was the loss of a long-standing business relationship with Adidas, with whom he worked to distribute his Yeezy brand. However, he eventually apologized for his “unintentional outburst” toward the Jewish community in December 2023.
