(LifeSiteNews) Pro-life rapper Kanye West, a controversial and unpredictable public figure who has nonetheless earned the friendship of prominent conservatives for his support for President Donald Trump and willingness to speak out in defense of the preborn, called Planned Parenthood a “Holocaust museum” in a turbulent interview that aired Saturday.
The prominent celebrity, who has often pointed out that a disproportionate number of black babies are killed through abortion in the United States, made the remarks during an interview with Revolt TV’s Drink Champs hosted by N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN and released October 15.
During the interview, West said he told Los Angeles Apparel founder Dov Charney: “I want you to visit Planned Parenthood. That’s our Holocaust museum.”

West has frequently spoken out against Planned Parenthood and accused the abortion giant of “black genocide,” kindling the ire of pro-abortion advocates in the media.
Earlier this month in an interview with Tucker Carlson, West decried the fact that more black babies are aborted than born in New York City, and that black women and their babies are disproportionately represented in U.S. abortion rates.
The celebrity has also drawn attention to the anti-black eugenicist sentiments of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, who admitted she wanted to “exterminate” the black population through abortion and birth control.
West’s Drink Champs interview didn’t exclusively focus on abortion, however.
The conversation covered a range of other controversial topics, including the death of George Floyd and West’s recent appearance with Daily Wire podcast host Candace Owens at a fashion show where the two wore provocative “White Lives Matter” shirts.
In recent weeks, the 45-year-old celebrity sparked vehement pushback not only for the shirts but also for a series of messages deemed anti-Semitic, including a tweet in which he threatened to go “death con 3 on Jewish people.”
On Saturday, West said that Charney, who printed the “White Lives Matter” shirts, has subsequently refused to release them for sale after West was temporarily banned from Twitter over the controversial tweet. According to the rapper, Charney had pushed back against him over the tweet and suggested the rapper should visit the Holocaust Museum. In response, West told Charney he should visit Planned Parenthood, “our Holocaust museum.”
