(JTA) — The popular rapper Kanye West was booed at a concert in England after comparing himself to Hitler.
“I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I’m (expletive) insane, like I’m Hitler,” West told an audience of 40,000 over the weekend at the Big Chill Festival.
As the audience booed, he said, “One day the light will shine through, and one day people will understand everything I ever did.”
