Kanye West is one of the 21st Century’s most talented musicians, but his controversial remarks are just as famous as his music – and his antisemitic comments have now got him banned from the UK.

Wireless festival, which he was due to headline in London this summer, has been cancelled as a result.

Since he burst onto the music scene in the early 2000s, Ye, as he is now known, has been breaking the mould – both as an artist and with his controversial opinions.

This includes releasing a song called Heil Hitler, selling swastika T-shirts, saying slavery was a choice and supporting Diddy during his sex trafficking trial.

Gareth Barlow speaks to music and culture journalist Nicolas Tyrell-Scott about why Ye remains popular, how much the music industry is responsible and will anything now change?

Ye denies allegations of sexual assault.
