KANYE WANTS MECHILA: In a totally bizarre meeting with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto, rapper Kanye West – who has made countless blatantly antisemitic statements, including releasing a song titled “Heil Hitler” – apologized for his actions, claiming that it is due to his suffering from bipolar disorder.
In 2010, YWN reported that Pinto met with NBA player LeBron James on a yacht, where he paid Pinto a staggering six figures to give him “business advice”.
Pinto later did a year in prison and had since rebranded himself as a major Mekubal living in Manhattan.

How dare you “Yeshivah” world write the last sentence without mentioning anything positive about a giant in Torah ?! Is it because you are a racist ashkenazi, or just jealous of his wealth ?!
Instead of writing about the anti-semite you chose to write lashon hara on a mezakei rabim and huge tzaddik ! DISGUSTING !
“had since rebranded himself as a major Mekubal” How was that done, by press release? Advertising campaign in the Luach Hatzibur? Google ads?
Are there minor mekubalim?
“jealous of his wealth” What about
