Kanye West's Australian visa has been cancelled over his "offensive comments".

The 48-year-old rapper - whose wife Bianca Censori has family Down Under - had a "lower-level" visa which has now been revoked after he release antisemitic song Heil Hitler in May.

The country's Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke told ABC: "He's been coming to Australia for a long time.

"He's got family here and he's made a lot of offensive comments that my officials looked at again.

"Once he released the Heil Hitler song, he no longer has a valid visa in Australia.

"It wasn't a visa for the purpose of concerts. It was a lower-level and the officials still looked at the law and said, you're going to have a song and promote that sort of Nazism, we don't need that in Australia."

Earlier this year, the Stronger rapper came under fire over his controversial behaviour, including praising Adolf Hitler and selling t-shirts emblazoned with a Swastika, a notorious Nazi hate symbol.

However, in May he asked for forgiveness and called for peace.

He wrote in a series of posts on X: "I am done with antisemitism.

I love all people.

"God forgive me for the pain I've caused.

"I forgive those who have caused me pain. Thank you God.

"The earth itself is in Gods Kingdom.

"GOD CALLS FOR PEACE.

"Share peace.

"Share love."

Kanye claimed his outlook changed after he enjoyed a video call with his and ex-wife Kim Kardashian's four children, North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and six-year-old Psalm.

He wrote: "I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again."

This isn't the first time Kanye has seemingly had a change of heart as in February, he declared he was "not a Nazi" following "further reflection.

Taking to X, he wrote: "After further reflection I've come to the realization that I'm not a Nazi."

Kanye had previously declared his anti-Semitic comments to be "90 percent Jew proof", as he went on to explain he meant no one had been able to "stop" him.

He wrote: "I will write this more poetically in a bit cause right now I'm finishing my verse for Game's album.

"The idea of being Jew proof is

"I said all these politically incorrect things and nobody was able to stop me extort me threaten me to change anything

"And I made 40 million the next day between my different business

"There's a lot of Jewish people I know and love and still work with

"The point I made and showed is that I am not under Jewish control anymore (sic)"
