Kanye West‘s apology, written in Hebrew, to the Jewish community was a result of a ‘smackdown’ by his wife Bianca Censori, who is allegedly ‘tired’ of having to ‘babysit’ her husband – and fears he is putting them in danger.
The controversial rapper, 46, apologized on Tuesday for his string of unhinged and offensive outbursts of late, which saw him rapping anti-Semitic lyrics in Dubai and praising Hitler in Las Vegas earlier this month.
Acknowledging his behavior on Instagram, he said: ‘I deeply regret any pain I may have caused.’
Now, insiders have exclusively told DailyMail.com that the apology came after Bianca, 28, ‘laid the smackdown on him.’

On December 15, Kanye unleashed a shocking anti-Semitic rant which saw him scream ‘Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye! Sponsor that!’ during an event in Las Vegas (pictured)
Kanye shared an apology in Hebrew on his Instagram on Tuesday, which stated: ‘I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst’
‘Bianca was tired of having to babysit Kanye,’ they said. ‘She told him that his recent behavior was unacceptable and that he needs to apologize because he was putting them in danger and setting a horrible example for his children.
‘Bianca is really sick of his attention seeking and she knows that this is not who he truly is, but it is making her look like she is anti-Semitic which is so far from the truth.
‘She has many Jewish friends who she loves dearly and he knows this.’
Kanye’s latest hate-filled outburst occurred at a listening party in Sin City on December 15. Bianca was noticeably absent.
During his rant, he stated that ‘all the rich f****s’ in the room’ have their kids in ‘Zionist schools.’
‘It is very upsetting to Bianca and he does it anyway. He just waits until she is gone. By the time that she finds out what he’s done and said, it is too late,’ the source said.
‘And now it’s at the point where she is starting to fear for her safety – not because of Kanye hurting her or anything like that. It is more like she fears that a Jewish extremist could potentially do something to hurt both of them.’
In the Yeezy rapper’s apology, he wrote: ‘I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any “unintended outburst” caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to offend offend or demean.

Kanye wore a Klu Klux Klan type of hoodie to a Vultures listening party (seen here) in Miami earlier this month. His new album Vultures drops on January 12 after being delayed
Kanye’s daughter North West, 10 (also seen in Miami) was mentioned in his Las Vegas speech when he said that she ‘had destroyed couches in her house so she could join him on tour’
In November, Kanye performed his latest song Vultures in Dubai, which contains the lyrics, ‘How can I be anti-Semitic when I just f****d a Jewish b***’ (pictured during the performance)
‘Respected, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused. I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future.
‘Your forgiveness is important to me and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity.’
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), responded to his apology, stating it is the ‘first stop on a long journey towards making amends.’
‘After causing untold damage by using his vast influence and platform to poison countless minds with vicious antisemitism and hate, an apology in Hebrew may be the first stop on a long journey towards making amends to the Jewish community and all those he has hurt,’ a statement read.
‘Ultimately, actions will speak louder than words but this initial act of contrition is welcome.’
Kanye’s latest rant occurred just one month after he was slammed for anti-Semitic lyrics in his new track Vultures, which he performed at club Blu Dubai in Dubai alongside rappers Ty Dolla $ign and Lil’ Durk.
In front of a large crowd, Kanye rapped, ‘How am I anti-Semitic? I just f***ed a Jewish b****’ – a reference to the anti-Semitic scandal last year which saw him booted from his lucrative partnerships with Adidas and Balenciaga.
According to the source, Kanye and Bianca – who celebrated their one-year anniversary on December 20 – had to ‘hire additional security’ after his appearance.
Kanye’s anti-Semitic rhetoric started in October 2022 when he vowed to go ‘death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE’ (pictured here in 2019)
Among his accusations, the rapper (pictured on Christmas Day) previously said that the ‘Holocaust is not what happened’ and also claimed ‘Black people are the real Jews’
‘They have hired more security now, especially when they are with the kids,’ they said. ‘But Bianca almost doesn’t want to address it with him because he knows how she feels and doing so would just create another fight.
‘Of course her friends are, once again, concerned for her, even though she tells everyone that she has it all under control.’
DailyMail.com has reached out to reps for Kanye and Bianca.
During his Las Vegas meltdown n December 15, Kanye went off the rails in front of a large crowd.
In a video obtained by TMZ, he is seen shouting: ‘It’s 60 million of us in America, 60 million Jews in the world.
’50 per cent of our deaths is abortion, 25 per cent of us go to prison… raise your hand if you ever got an abortion.
‘If we were in a Jewish… every mother would raise their hands.
‘Who’s going to make the hospitals, though? He’s a Zionist, [Donald] Trump. This is what I’ve been trying to tell you. Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye, third party, sponsor that!’
He added: ‘They cant f*****g touch me because God cover me.’
Kanye was previously married to Kim Kardashian with whom he has four children, including 10-year-old North
Kanye also slammed the school his children attend and said: ‘North ripped up the motherf*****g couches in the house’ to be able to travel with her father on his trip.
Shouting at the crowd to ‘shut the f*** up,’ he said: ‘I don’t give a f*** about life or death, I get visitation with my kids.’ He then added: ‘F*** Balenciaga.’
It comes after Kanye was branded a ‘disgusting human being’ by fans after he wore a black Ku Klux Klan type hood in his latest attempt to shock at an Art Basel event in Miami on December 12.
The artist put on a fabric head covering featuring a point at the top at an overnight listening event with collaborator Ty Dolla $ign as they performed their controversial track Vultures, which includes the lyrics about Kanye doing the dirty with a Jewish woman.
Kanye has a documented history of antisemitism and last year lost out on a number of partnership deals after going on an explosive anti-Semitic rant.
It all started in October 2022 when he vowed to go ‘death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE’ in a string of sick posts online.
Shortly after the tweet, the Praise God rapper told Piers Morgan he only meant to take aim at certain specific Jews, who he felt exploited him.
When the talk show host contended the comments were ‘as racist as anything you’ve been through,’ Kanye said: ‘That’s why I said it. I fought fire with fire.’
In an interview with right-wing talk show host Alex Jones in December 2022, Kanye praised Hitler for his ‘redeeming qualities.’
He also maintained that the ‘Holocaust is not what happened’ and promoted the conspiracy theory that Black people are the real Jews.
His rants saw him lose out on lucrative contracts with The Gap, Adidas and Balenciaga and more.
He was also dropped by his management team at Creative Artists Agency.
His latest actions have not only further damaged his reputation, but are also believed to be impacting his marriage to Bianca.

They had a blowout fight the night before his performance in Dubai, with a source at the time claiming Bianca gave Kanye an ‘ultimatum’ – stop controlling her or lose her.
‘Their argument exploded on the night she went out with him when she was dressed normal and was drinking and flirting,’ a friend of Bianca’s told DailyMail.com exclusively after the fight.
‘Kanye didn’t like this because he knew he was no longer in control. She allegedly told him she was done being his silent mute and that she is not his muse like Kim [Kardashian, ex-wife] was and he cannot treat her as such.
‘Kanye was forced to loosen the leash or face losing her. This was a huge turning point in their relationship and ever since then she has shown glimpses of her true self. This made her friends so happy to see her smiling and laughing and interacting in Miami.’
