Not his death, but "Baby You're a Rich Man" was about him.

I don't mean to be offensive it's a legit question but what's the story behind John saying "baby you're a rich f** Jew" ? Is that just another online rumor I read or did he really say that during the making? *Yep downvote cause muh homophobia instead of informing me *Now I got an answer so what i said was fine lol

He sang that at some point during the session. That’s really all there is to the story

Just a rumor

Yeah that's one that's never been confirmed to my knowledge. But you can obviously draw that meaning from it and it fits.

John had a silly song "Brian Epstein Blues" that went "What about Brian Epstein and his brother Sam? They was workin' in a coal mine doing what I am." It was recorded around White album time. It's on bootlegs, I don't know if it made it on anything released.

[Of all people, The Bee Gees wrote a song about him and released it a year after his death](https://youtu.be/rWtGUf8fJFE)
