Kanye West’s rampant glorification of Hitler and Nazism could jeopardize his November 29th concert in São Paulo, Brasil.
As reported by Metrópoles, the São Paulo State Public Prosecutor’s Office (MPSP) has ordered the Riot Police to keep officers on standby during the show, with specific instructions to arrest Ye on the spot “if he sings a song or makes any kind of apology for Nazism.”
The order aims to prevent West from performing “Heil Hitler,” his May song glorifying German Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler. The arrest threat reportedly extends to two of the show’s promoters, Guilherme Cavalcante and Jean Fabrício Ramos (Faublous Fabz).

It’s worth noting that West still hasn’t booked a new venue for the concert, so this all may be a moot point. On Monday, São Paulo mayor Ricardo Nunes said the city would not provide a public space for the show, which was initially set to take place at the Interlagos racetrack before being canceled in early October.
“No one who promotes Nazism will play or sing any words on public equipment belonging to the City Hall,” Nunes said, according to Metrópoles. “We do not accept it and we will do everything necessary to ensure that no one who promotes Nazism has any kind of activity here in the city of São Paulo.”
Earlier this year, West was also banned from entering Australia for “Heil Hitler.”
