Like so many of his creative contemporaries, Kanye West's brain is anything but average. Over the past few years, he's claimed the title of bipolar, which he examined in 2018's Ye and beyond. More recently, though, fans have seen the Yeezy founder come forward with claims of being autistic, notably citing his car crash from decades ago as a trauma that radically altered his brain chemistry. Some people have expressed skepticism on the validity of this news, but still, Ye doubled down on it all during a new interview with TMZ.
"Black people can't be Anti-Semitic, we are Jews," he said in the clip below, touching on another massive controversy West is involved in. "You understand what I'm saying?" he asked the camera in his face, while wearing his new James Bond villain-inspired grills. "We are Jew! Until you really do the facts of the fake indoctrination that y'all putting into the schools and all of that... We not following y'all's rules," the "Good Morning" artist insisted before apologizing to Jewish kids who admire him and had to witness the drama of the past few years. "We got to a point where something needed to happen," West told the outlet.

"How many more times are they going to call me crazy? How many more times are they gonna give me medication that makes me fat? Off of a misdiagnosis! When I really have slight signs of autism from the car accident. They said, 'Whatever, just give him that bipolar medication.' Y'all try to kill the superheroes. But we here, we alive!"
