Kanye West’s Twitter is deactivated following tirade of vile anti-Semitic, misogynistic and racist comments

Kanye West has had his Twitter account deactivated after a tirade of anti-Semitic, misogynistic and racist comments as Elon Musk confirmed the public ‘won’t be seeing’ his account anymore. 

The American rapper, 47, took a sH๏τ at his longtime rival Taylor Swift during the Super Bowl on Sunday night while peppering in more anti-Semitic sentiments.

Yet after the musician thanked Elon for ‘allowing me to vent’ the businessman appears to have shut down his account as he confirmed: ‘Given what he has posted, his account is now classified as NSFW. You should not be seeing that anymore.’

In Kanye’s final tweet on Sunday night he wrote: ‘I’m logging out of Twitter. I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent.’ 

He continued: ‘It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board. It was like an Ayahuasca trip. 

‘Love all of you who gave me the energy and attention. To we connect again. Good afternoon and goodnight.’

On Sunday Kanye stressed he was ‘in a good space’ mentally and that making the controversial comments – which were condemned as racist, Sєxist, tone-deaf, misogynistic and ignorant by social media users and multiple celebrities – have left him with a sense of peace after venting.

Regarding Swift, he tweeted, ‘IF ITS ABOUT THE CULTURE … WHY ARE WE LETTING TAYLOR SWIFT BE SEEN ON TV SINGING A SONG ABOUT TAKING A BLACK MAN DOWN AND ACCUSING OF THINGS THAT CAN TAKE A BLACK MAN DOWN FOR LIFE.’

West was seemingly making reference to Taylor Swift at last week’s Grammys dancing to Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss track Not Like Us. 

Lamar did not get out unscathed, as West said of the Super Bowl Halftime headliner Kendrick Lamar, ‘KENDRICK IS BEING USED BY THESE WHITE PEOPLE AND JEWS AND SO AM I.’ 

Elsewhere Kanye released a bizarre Super Bowl ad promoting his fashion line Yeezy that raised plenty of eyebrows.

The strange, brief clip — which aired on the heels of controversial comments condemned as racist, Sєxist, tone-deaf, misogynistic and ignorant by social media users and multiple celebrities — was sH๏τ on West’s iPhone and appeared to have been taken at the dentist’s office.

West claimed he had to film the ad on his mobile phone after blowing his entire Super Bowl ad budget on his ‘new teeth’.

‘I spent all the money for the commercial on these new teeth,’ West said, smiling for the camera and wearing sunglᴀsses. ‘So, once again, I had to shoot it on the iPhone.’

‘Um. Umm. Umm,’ West continued before definitively directing viewers to his brand’s website. ‘Go to Yeezy.com.’

A subsequent search of his name revealed the account no longer existed

Kanye also appeared to reference his growing tension with Musk, as he responded to a user who alluded to the Tesla founder as a Nazi.

This comes just weeks after the billionaire generated controversy at President Donald Trump’s inauguration with what appeared to be a Nazi salute. (Musk denied the allegations.)

West replied to a user who linked to a story about Musk unfollowing West on X/Twitter, with the caption, ‘fake nazis when a real nazi walks in.’

West replied, ‘SINCE IM GETTING KICKED OFF TWITTER SOON. EVERYBODY IS A NAZI TILL A REAL NAZI PULLS UP.’

West also suggested that Musk, who owns X/Twitter, was sabotaging his social media efforts via shadow banning, and tamping down the number of views he was garnering with his stream of shock.

‘MY TWITTER REACH HAS BEEN LIMITED SO I AM NOT ALLOWED TO TREND DOING SUPER BOWL,’ he said. ‘I AM SETTING UP A DISCORD CHANEL ON MY WEBSITE … WELCOME TO AMERICA.’

Milo Yiannopoulos, who owns Tarantula – a talent management company that reps both West and his partner Bianca Censori, according to The Hollywood Reporter – confirmed that West was taking an indefinite break from the social media platform.

‘Ye has deactivated his X account for the time being,’ Yiannopoulos said on X/Twitter Sunday evening.

West’s spokesperson Yiannopoulos told Dailymail.com on Sunday via email, ‘We just want to be clear he deactivated and was not banned.’

Prior to deactivating his account, West said he ‘just saw a video of’ Kodak Black looking worse for wear, and noticed he had been wearing a Donda chain from his Yeezy fashion line. West said in a subsequent clip that this led him to interpret it as a sign to board a flight to Florida to help his fellow musical artist.

Other artists West remarked on during his stream of tweets Sunday included Travis Scott, R. Kelly and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. 

West’s latest mention of Swift comes after nearly 15 years of enmity between the recording artists, as the seeds of the feud between were planted at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards on September 13, 2009 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

In the infamous exchange, West infamously interrupted Swift during her victory speech for the Best Female Video award for You Belong With Me, which had been nominated against Beyonce’s Single Ladies.

West emerged on the stage and took the microphone from Swift, telling her, ‘Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish. But Beyonce had one of the best videos of all-time! One of the best videos of all-time.’

While the musical stars appeared to be on better terms in the years following, things blew up after the release of West’s 2016 song Famous.

West claimed at the time that Swift had given him her blessing to refer to her as a ‘B****’ in the lyrics of the song, in a reference to the VMAs incident. 

Swift said she never made such an agreement, leading to a public feud with West after he and his former wife Kim Kardashian in July of 2016 released a call West and Swift had over the contents of the Famous song. 

Kardashian, who split with West in 2021 and settled their divorce the following year, alluded to Swift as a snake upon the release of the call

She said in a tweet, ‘Wait it’s legit National Snake Day?!?!?They have holidays for everybody, I mean everything these days!’

West on Sunday tweeted multiple times throughout the game, including a video in which he appeared calm and docile after days of frenetic scandal.

The Grammy-winning artist said he was spurred to say he is of sound mind, amid the cacophony of statements that offended widespread groups of people the past few days.

‘I know you’re all thinking I’m going something through right now and I’ve got bags under my eyes and s***,’ a groggy West told his followers. 

He added, ‘I wouldn’t want nobody to like, do an intervention on me – that’s why I wanted to put this video up cause you’re all thinking, “Ye really going it through something right now. Somebody need to go get them or go take his Twitter and stuff like that.”‘ 

West made it clear he wouldn’t take back a single tweet, saying, ‘I got my ideas out; that’s all that happened and that was very freeing for me – and it was worth everything, it was worth everything to do that.’

‘But I’m just telling you calmly that I am in a good space – I’m really in a positive space, it’s cathartic.’  

West also addressed a disclaimer X/Twitter added to his account on Sunday amid multiple days of tweets taking aim at a number of fellow celebrities, races, religions, body types, domestic violence victims and other sensitive topics.

The warning read: ‘Caution: This profile may include potentially sensitive content. You’re seeing this warning because they post potentially sensitive images or language. Do you still want to view it?’

West alluded to the disclaimer, urging X/Twitter owner Elon Musk to let him keep his account: ‘AS I TWEET IN CODE WORDS AND KISS ELONS A** AND BEG HIM TO NOT CANCEL MY ACCOUNT.’
