Spotify, SoundCloud and other technology platforms have worked to remove a new Yee song that praises Adolf Hitler, but the music and its video continued to Proliferate On -line, including X, where he accumulated millions of views.
In various conventional and alternative technology platforms this week, Ye, previously known as Kanye West, managed to share his last song, titled “Heil Hitler”, along with his complementary title, “WW3”, which also Glorify Hitler, the Holocaust architect.
Although some platforms have taken action to try to overthrow the music, others apparently let it spread freely.
Continuous propagation of music and varied approaches for moderation exemplify an increasingly fractured environment on social and social media, where some platforms have retreated their moderation practices in recent years, while others have tried to maintain higher patterns when it comes to hatred.
Elon Musk’s OX is where music found its largest audience.
On Thursday, you sent a video for the music in X, where you remained on Friday night and received more than 6.5 million views. At least 12,000 users and a handful of right -wing influencers quickly shared the clip on their pages. YE’s latest repost is from a video mixing Hitler’s historical clips along with his music as a support track. He also shared a video in the X of influencer Andrew Tate-A misogynist self-derived by the music in his car. This video was seen over 3 million times.
The Ye’s account is verified as an X organization, which means it can be eligible for monetization and ads. It is unclear if the YE account uses these features.
The proliferation of music, despite its invocation of Hitler, is the latest illustration of power that social media platforms have given some highly followed celebrities and influencers and their inability or lack of desire to control the spread of some content after publication. While you didn’t seem to try to send music to other social media platforms, other people replaced the video.
On Facebook, NBC News found more than a dozen music video “Heil Hitler” and, on Youtube, half a dozen music reopens that had been seen hundreds of thousands of times. At Tiktok, a handful of reuploads was published using the hashtag #hh.
X, Meta, Tiktok, and YouTube have a hate speech or hatred conduct policies that usually prohibit speech directed at a specific group for their race, or hateful invocations of genocide. X and goal did not respond to requests for comment. A Youtube -Gate said, “Let us remove the content and continue to overthrow the reaploads,” noting that the accounts associated with years are ineligible for monetization.
YE was able to upload music to the popular music streaming services Spotify and SoundCloud.
The presence of music on Spotify provoked a petition campaign from the anti-difamation alloy asking for its removal.
In a statement, Daniel Kelley, ADL’s director of strategy and operations, said: “Spotify was silent on the radio to publicize ADL for most 2025, so we thought it was important to activate our voluntary base to press them on the platform’s declared policies.”
Kelley said Spotify didn’t respond to her reach, but seems to have removed the song. “WW3”, which contains lyrics that glorifying Nazis are still on the platform.
But some users circumvented the removal of Spotify from music, sending it to the Spotify podcast section or carrying rewritten music cover versions.
SoundCloud seemed to remove versions of YE’s music in its X account, but NBC News located 27 reaploads or remixed versions of music on the platform.
Spotify and SoundCloud did not respond to requests for comments.
On Friday, you posted at X that he had found a new music streaming hub for his music called Scrybe – linking a site to links to download pages to the app at Google and Apple app stores. The small music streaming app stands out as serving independent musicians with the slogan: “More money for the artist, less money for the fan.”
In the application, Ye’s songs are all labeled as trends. Scrybe did not respond to a request for comment.
