Rabbi Yoshiyahu Pinto published footage of a meeting he held the day before yesterday in New York with American rapper Kanye West, who changed his name to "Ye." According to the statement from the rabbi, who was convicted of bribery and served time in prison, West, who has expressed antisemitic sentiments on many occasions in the past, told him that he "expressed deep remorse for his words regarding the Jewish people." West also told the rabbi during the meeting: "I feel very blessed that I can sit here with you today and take responsibility. I have dealt with issues of bipolar disorder."
