Just when it seemed Kanye West’s 2025 was defined by a quiet “accountability tour,” the ghost of his most toxic era has returned to haunt a Miami Beach hotspot. Vendôme, a luxury lounge on Washington Avenue, is now under intense legal and political fire after a group of high-profile “manosphere” influencers and political agitators successfully requested Ye’s banned 2025 track, “Heil Hitler.”

While the Chicago legend has spent the last few months meeting with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto to “take accountability” for past tirades, this latest incident suggests the cultural damage he unleashed is proving harder to contain than a PR rollout.
The Players & The Play
Last week, a “who’s who” of controversial digital figures—including Andrew Tate, Sneako, Nick Fuentes, and Clavicular—were captured on a livestream arriving at the club in a limousine while the track blasted. Once inside, the group reportedly pressured staff to play the song during a high-energy “bottle parade.”
- The Song: Independently released by Ye in May 2025, “Heil Hitler” was swiftly scrubbed from Spotify and Apple Music due to its overt Nazi glorification.
- The Reaction: Video from the night allegedly shows influencer Myron Gaines performing Nazi salutes while the club’s co-founder, Jonathan Mansour, stood nearby.
The Legal Hammer: From Misdemeanors to Felonies
Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner isn’t letting this slide. Expressing “horror and disgust,” Meiner has launched an official investigation that could see the club lose its business license.
“I want to know how they got in,” Meiner stated, noting that other local venues had already blacklisted the group. “There is nothing funny about the murder of six million Jews.”
The stakes are high due to Florida’s strict 1.015 antisemitism law. Under recent legislation, hate-motivated harassment that used to be a misdemeanor can now be reclassified as a third-degree felony. If investigators find the venue intentionally hosted or facilitated “hateful activities,” the legal fallout for Vendôme’s leadership could be unprecedented.
Ye’s Camp Responds
Despite the song being his own creation, Kanye West is reportedly “furious” over the stunt. Sources close to the artist claim he did not approve of the song being played, especially as he attempts to rehabilitate his image.
In a classic case of damage control, the Tate brothers have since distanced themselves, with Tristan Tate claiming on X (formerly Twitter) that he wasn’t involved in the request. Meanwhile, Vendôme has issued a formal apology and confirmed they have fired the staff members responsible for hitting “play.”
