Ye Threatened With Arrest in Brazil If He ‘Promotes Nazism’ During Concert: Report
Authorities mandated arrest of Ye and promoters if pro-Nazi acts occur during the Nov. 29 concert, following past antisemitic incidents and a ban on Nazi imagery, prosecutor said.
- For the Nov. 29 São Paulo concert, the São Paulo State Public Prosecutor's Office ordered that Ye be arrested if he makes pro‑Nazi remarks or performs Heil Hitler, extending this to promoters Guilherme Cavalcante and Jean Fabrício Ramos .
- City Hall canceled Ye's Interlagos racetrack booking after his antisemitic remarks, and an October ruling by Prosecutor Ana Beatriz Pereira de Souza Frontini barred Nazi imagery on his clothing.
- Earlier this month, Ye met with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto and apologized, saying he feels "really blessed to sit here and take accountability" and expressed remorse for pain to the Jewish community.
- The Nov. 29 concert in São Paulo is in jeopardy amid legal orders, and it remains unclear whether the Brazil show will go ahead as planned.
- Beyond São Paulo, Ye's international dates include Dec. 13 in South Africa and Jan. 30 in Mexico, while Billboard has reached out to his representatives for comment.
