Kanye West has teased the return of his Sunday Service choir events and posted a picture of a KKK robe on social media afterwards.
On Saturday (March 8), the rapper took to Instagram to share that his Sunday Service events will reportedly be returning on March 16. He shared a photo of himself in discussion with Sunday Service choir director Jason White but has yet to share further information on the planned project.
West launched the Sunday Service in 2019 in the build to the release of his ‘Jesus Is King’ album. The performances saw Kanye and a gospel choir perform songs from the album as well as gospel renditions of his other hits until late 2021.

While his Sunday Service announcement appeared to hint that the rapper was finally headed in the right direction after months of controversy, it was short-lived as he followed-up by posting a picture of a white robe typically affiliated with the White supremacists group Ku Klux Klan (KKK) on Instagram.
Kanye wrote on the now-removed post’s caption: “Outfit of the day”. He also shared the same picture on X/Twitter with the caption: “FIT PIC”.

Kanye has since reacted to Instagram removing his post: “WOW INSTAGRAM TOOK MY POST DOWN”.
The posts have been criticised by social media users, with some saying they feel “sick to the stomach” and that “there’s no way to separate the art & the person with him”.

It’s the latest brush with controversy for the rapper who in recent months has come under fire for selling a white T-shirt with a large swastika emblem on the chest, listed as “HH-01” on his website – possibly a reference to the “Heil Hitler” chant.
The site was later taken down by Shopify, though the online retailer later stated that the artist’s website was taken down due to the potential for fraud – not because it was selling a swastika t-shirt. Shopify did condemn the item, calling it “vile, disgusting and inexcusable”.
West then took to X (formerly Twitter) to say he’s had the idea for the t-shirt for “over eight years”. It came alongside a string of highly controversial posts which saw him rescind his apology to the Jewish community for his past anti-Semitic remarks, and go on to declare himself “a Nazi” and write: “I love Hitler”, as well as praise billionaire and X owner Elon Musk as “the most lit person that [has] ever been on Twitter”, following the latter’s accusations of Nazism at Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration.
Then, the controversial rapper then seemed to backtrack on his earlier comments, taking to X to share that “after further reflection”, he’s “come to the realisation that I’m not a Nazi”. However, it was followed only a few days later by yet more swastika apparel appearing on his X page.

The aforementioned posting spree saw his X account taken down and deactivated, and it was later confirmed that the rapper had been dropped by his talent agency, and his former Chief Of Staff had quit the Yeezy company.
His rants in February also saw him declare “dominion” over his wife Bianca Censori after they attended the Grammys red carpet event, where she wore a see-through dress that revealed her naked figure. He also posted a series of tweets in support of Diddy and Chris Brown and urged for the former to be released from prison amid sexual abuse allegations.
In the time since the rant on social media, Kanye West’s ‘Vultures’ collaborator Ty Dolla $ign has condemned his hate speech, Charlie Puth begged West to stop promoting “incredibly dangerous” messages, and Friends star David Schwimmer called for action to be taken against the rapper for his hate-filled “Nazi” posts, arguing that “silence is complicity”.
