Westside Gunn Catches Heat For 'Hitler Wears Hermes' Project Because Of Kanye West

Westside Gunn dropped his new project Hitler Wears Hermes 10 on Friday, October 28. He was trending last night because of it. But not because of the songs, it was over the title. 

That has to do with CNN reporting that Kanye West has a lot of admiration for Adolf Hitler, the late leader of the Nazi Party. It was something that former TMZ worker Van Lathan once said as well.  Plus, it was reported the rapper wanted to name his 2018 Ye album Hitler of all things. 

But a lot of people said it's strange that Kanye is being taken to task for allegedly wanting to name his album after the late dictator and Westside isn't.

We let Westside Gunn rock for years with Hitler cover art now Kanye looks up to him all of a sudden now we like "WOAH DERE"!

All of this including the report CNN put out couldve been called out hella time ago lmao

Do you think it's hypocritical for Ye to be criticized and not Westside?
