IT WAS a case of Yeezy Come, Yeezy Go, as a London tattoo parlour is removing Kanye West tats as former fans rush to get his face off their skin.
NAAMA studios, in Great Portland Street, are offering the ‘public service’ after Ye praised Hitler on conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ Infowars show.
The rapper appeared on the show with his new friends, notorious white supremacist and antisemite Nick Fuentes, and the disgraced alt-right commentator Milo Yiannopoulos.
Ye also took the pair to dinner with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago where he asked the former president to be his running-mate for the 2024 White House race, leading to a public falling-out between the rapper and the 2020 loser.
NAAMA Studios advertised their free tattoo offer on Twitter, writing: “Got a #kanyewest tattoo? Tag us.” The words were accompanied by an image of a man’s arm with a tattoo that reads ‘Bye’ – with the ‘ye’ highlighted.
The studios reported they were already working on removing three Ye tats with laser treatment, and had booked in another ten.
Briony Garbett, CEO of NAAMA, told EuroNews Culture: “We’ve actually always had a programme for pro-bono tattoos removals. It’s called Second Chances, and the concept there is for tattoos that are particularly triggering from a mental health perspective or gang / hate tattoos.
“To be honest, when we started seeing this trend about Kanye tattoos, people were talking about regretting their tattoos and having a Kanye tattoo, considering what he stands for and one thing and another.
“It’s very triggering for people and embarrassing, as they have a very strong affiliation on their skin with that person. So it felt like quite a natural extension of our programme and what we were already doing.”
West was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016, and although he later suggested this was a misdiagnosis, many believe his actions in recent years can be attributed to mental ill-health.
In October, he appeared in public wearing a ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shirt, which was also worn by right-wing contrarian Candace Owens.
Some commentators have suggested that Ye’s support for Hitler and his antisemitism were well-known for years but media organisations covered it up in order to continue to run celeb stories about the rapper.
Last week he was kicked off Twitter for the second time after an image of a swastika entwined with a Star of David.
He also stormed out of a podcast interview hosted by Tim Pool after being asked a very mild question about antisemitism.
Ye has also been criticised for sharing nude photos of his ex-wife Kim Kardashian with Adidas staff.

Mr Louise Armstrong, and other great African American Jazz Musicians, along with Mr Marcus Garvey in the 1930s; Mr Malcolm X and the Rev Dr Martin Luther King in the 1960s, and today in 2022, Mr Ye West, have reason to be publicly critical of the minority Caucasian European racial group, who have a disproportionate influence on the recording industry.
If Anglo-Saxon Protestant England’s noble 800-year Magna Carta Traditional for Free Critical Speech, Debate and Discussion; as heralded, promoted and made respectable by Oxford University’s Debating Society, is to remain honourably efficacious.
Then Mr Ye West must be honourably permitted and protected to praise and celebrate the wartime leader of Germany, Mr Hitler, or any other political character of his choosing, without becoming the victim of a minority group’s public censure.
Many people are of the opinion that U.S. President Bush, England’s Labour Prime Minister, Sir Tony Blair, and Israeli Prime Minister, Mr Netanyahu are great men; whilst others believe these men to be war criminals.
Disciples today of England’s 800-year Free Critical Speech, Debate, and Discussion Magna Carta Tradition, must oppose and publicly resist Western Caucasian Europe’s drift into accepting and honouring this Marxist inspired creed; whereby, the Citizens or Subjects are forced to only publicly express the popular and establishment opinion of political leaders.
The cherished 800-year Magna Carta freedoms of the English peoples are dependent on being able to freely share Critical Speech, Debate and Discussion.
