Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, has offered to meet with the British Jewish community ahead of his show at London’s Wireless Festival.

It comes after it was announced tickets for the festival were to go on sale after its promoter, Festival Republic, defended the planned performance, after calls for him to be barred from entering the UK because of previous antisemitism.
