Kanye West took out a page in the Wall Street Journal to apologize for his past actions, including anti-Semitic rants and use of the swastika symbol on his merchandise. The rapper confirmed that he is now getting help for his bipolar disorder after nearly “hitting rock bottom” in 2025.

The rapper began his letter by referencing his 2002 car accident, which left him with both physical and mental damage. As he pointed out, the physical damage has been widely documented, but the injury to his right frontal lobe “went widely unnoticed” over the years. Ye explained that he did not receive a proper diagnosis until 2023, which ultimately led to “serious damage to [his] mental health” and a bipolar type-1 diagnosis.
