Australia has officially revoked Kanye West’s visa following the release of his deeply controversial new track, “Heil Hitler,” which many say glorifies Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and spreads dangerous hate.

Kanye, now legally known as Ye, dropped the song on May 8 — coinciding with the 80th anniversary of Nazi Germany’s defeat in World War II. The track sparked outrage worldwide, with critics accusing the 48-year-old rapper of openly promoting Nazi ideology.

Australia’s Home Affairs Minister, Tony Burke, announced on Wednesday that the government had decided to cancel Ye’s visa in response. Speaking to ABC, Burke said officials reviewed the visa after the song’s release and concluded that Ye’s presence in the country would only fuel division and hate.

“He’s made a lot of offensive comments in the past,” Burke said. “But once he released the ‘Heil Hitler’ song, our officials determined we don’t need that sort of Nazism promoted here. We already have enough problems in this country without deliberately importing bigotry.”

Ye has ties to Australia through his wife, Bianca Censori, who is Australian, and he’s been a frequent visitor over the years. However, Burke dismissed concerns over banning such a high-profile figure, stressing, “What’s not sustainable is to import hatred.”

The backlash isn’t limited to Australia. In Slovakia, news of Kanye’s upcoming July concert drew fierce opposition, with more than 3,000 people signing a petition to stop him from performing. The petition called his show “an insult to historic memory, a glorification of wartime violence, and a debasement of all victims of the Nazi regime.”

The music video for “Heil Hitler” has only fueled the outrage. It shows dozens of Black men clad in animal pelts and masks, chanting the song’s title while Kanye raps about personal struggles, including his custody battle with Kim Kardashian. Shockingly, the song ends with a snippet of a speech by Hitler himself.

Ye’s latest controversy comes on top of past incidents where he’s made antisemitic remarks and aligned himself with extremist views. Just recently, he also voiced support for fellow artist Sean “Diddy” Combs, who faces serious charges in New York, including sex trafficking and racketeering.

While Kanye continues to court controversy, Australia’s decision sends a clear message: hate speech and Nazi symbolism won’t be welcomed on their shores.
