Cave recently told the BBC’s Newsnight that he still feels that way about Kanye’s music.

In an interview that will air tonight, Cave had this to say:

"On some level I don’t care what Kanye has to say on things, but I do love Kanye, his music. But I find antisemitism in particular distasteful. And so it’s very disappointing to hear these remarks and such sort of obvious, boring kind of reductive tropes that he’s actually pedaling. However, it’s a personal choice as to whether you can go on and listen to that person’s music. I personally can. I love Kanye’s music. I feel that he’s done the best music of anybody in some time, the most interesting, challenging, bold music… Kanye, for me, controversially, is, in my opinion, the greatest artist of our generation. I love his music."
