Russia’s love affair with Kanye West | Break the Fake

Russian state media has been celebrating Kanye West’s concert in St. Petersburg as a major cultural victory and proof that Russia is not isolated from the West.

There is just one awkward detail: Ye has repeatedly made pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler statements, including publicly expressing admiration for Adolf Hitler and using Nazi imagery. Yet in a country that constantly claims to be fighting “Nazism” in Ukraine, his arrival is being treated as something worth celebrating.

Tune in to the new episode of Break The Fake with Jonasz Rewiński to explore the contradiction behind Russia’s enthusiasm for Kanye West, the Kremlin’s obsession with presenting every Western celebrity appearance as a propaganda victory, and why the visit exposes the hypocrisy behind Russia’s “denazification” narrative.
