The Amsterdam de rechtbank hebben decided dat rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, does niet need to zijn banned van the Nederland.

As een result, his scheduled performances this Saturday and Monday can proceed as planned.

The Central Jewish Committee (CJO) hebben filed een lawsuit to block Ye's visit due to his previous statements dat zijn considered antisemitic and pro-Nazi.

He emphasized, however, dat de veiligheid and order om the events zijn wel organized.
