Kanye West who has visited Japan several times revealed the important reason why he once wanted to go there.

Remember When Kanye West Praised Japan over the United States of America for This Major Reason for Joe Rogan

American Presidential candidate Kanye West was once all praises for Japan. Kanye
West, who is known for his expressions and outright speech, has had a soft side
for the Asian country for years. Being a global performer, he gets to visit a
lot of countries. The creative genius has made some observations and opinions
from his experiences.



While every country has its ups and downs, Japan has one good factor that
attracts Ye to the country. He explained it all during one of his old
interviews.


KANYE WEST ONCE EXPLAINED TO JOE ROGAN WHY HE WANTED TO VISIT JAPAN

Kanye West has a liking for Japan, and he once elaborated on the main reason
behind it. In October 2020, the Donda singer made an appearance at The Joe Rogan
Experience and talked about the different treatments people receive in America,
even if they are celebrities. However, as per Ye, the same is not the case in
Japan. “There isn’t like this systemic racism embedded in every single
individual that’s inside the place,” he mentioned.



West initially made a comparison between Tom Brady and LeBron James to speak
about the hate the latter received because of his race. Bringing back the topic
to himself, the singer explained how he had to cancel a show in the midst of a
tour when the news of Kim Kardashian getting robbed broke out. The two incidents
gave birth to his wish of traveling to the Asian country as he believes that
Japan is different from America in terms of racism. 

The God Digger singer’s love for Japan likely goes beyond the country’s attitude
towards racism. He has reportedly visited the country several times before.
