Ye meets with Orthodox celebrity rabbi, says he wants to ‘make amends’ after antisemitic outbursts

JL;DR SUMMARY American rapper Ye, formerly Kanye West, recently met with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto in New York, expressing a desire to make amends for his past antisemitic remarks. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski.

Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
