Kanye West Quits X After Adult Film Drama Amid His Call For Diddy's Release

Kanye "Ye" West has vacated X after his lengthy rant session and adult content-posting spree.

On his way out, the rapper thanked X CEO Elon Musk and promptly deleted his account after dropping a series of controversial tweets that caught Musk's attention.

Kanye "Ye" West has also been calling for the release of rapper Diddy ahead of his May 5 court trial, and even going as far as calling him his twin.

The rapper stirred up controversy in full force with a series of viral misogynistic, antisemitic, and racist posts. He, however, stepped on the lion's tail when he dabbled into posting adult content on the platform, prompting Musk to react. Musk replied to a concerned user on the topic, writing:

"Given what he has posted, his account is now classified as NSFW. You should not be seeing that anymore."

Ye also deleted his X account after he announced he was "logging off." He expressed gratitude to Musk for allowing him to share his thoughts, describing his recent rants as "very cathartic." 

In comparing the experience to an "Ayahuasca trip," Ye indicated that he used the platform as a "sounding board" for his emotions. Even more alarming were his remarks promoting discussions about Hitler. TMZ reported that he shockingly identified himself as a Nazi.

David Schwimmer and other celebrities have also called on Musk to ban Ye from X due to the harmful consequences of his hate speech. Schwimmer emphasized that such rhetoric leads to real-life violence against Jewish individuals.

Ye caused another buzz on social media by referring to the troubled rapper Diddy as his "twin." The Blast reported that Ye shared a nostalgic photograph from the Grammy Awards featuring Diddy alongside his former partner Jennifer Lopez, who was wearing her famous green Versace dress.

"REMEMBER WHEN J LO PULLED UP TO THE RED CARPET WITH MY TWIN," Ye wrote on the viral post. The post drew attention from various quarters, as fans condemned the rapper for pulling his insensitive stunts.

Internet users queried why the singer wanted to associate himself with people like Diddy, who exhibit questionable traits.

Other users slammed Ye's comments by sharing a photo of a news headline about him being "accused of drugging and sexually assaulting" his former personal assistant at a Diddy party.

Ye's revival of support for Diddy suggests that the two once-conflicted rappers have repaired their fractured relationship. In addition to his lengthy rants and identifying the rapper as the long-lost twin, the Yeezy owner also called for him to be released.

He begged Trump to "free Puff" while also revealing he was releasing a clothing line in collaboration with Diddy's Sean John brand. "Thank you to my brother @Ye," Diddy replied to Ye's show of support. He shared a link to the Yeezy website, co-signing the drop.

The "Coming Home" rapper has been locked behind bars at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn as he faces several sex crime charges.

Ye attributed Diddy's legal troubles to racism in one of his social media rants. The songwriter, who is currently overseas for fear of becoming involved in Diddy's case, likened the music mogul's legal battle to his antisemitic scandal.

He implied that Diddy was being pushed out as the leading figure of the global alcoholic beverage powerhouse, Diageo. Employing derogatory racial slurs and specifically singling out the Jewish community, he expressed his views:

"ALL YOU PLEEEEEASE COME AT ME THATS HOW WE SPOT THE K-ONS LET THESE WHITE PEOPLE AND JEWISH PEOPLE TELL YOU WHAT TO DO AND SAY F-CK DIAGEO AND F-CK ALL YALL N--GAS IN ADVANCE."

He elaborated further by identifying racism as the root cause of Diddy's current troubles before concluding his statement that read:

"JUST FOR CLARITY THEY TYRING TO MAKE AN EXAMPLE OUT OF PUFF ME AND MY BROTHER HAD OUR ISSUES BUT THESE WHITE PEOPLE TRYING TO USE PUFF TO SCARE N--GAS IM NEITHER SCARED NOR BRAVE THIS JUST ME."

The rapper went further into the rabbit hole when he made controversial comments on the viral video showing Diddy hitting and stomping on his ex-girlfriend, Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura.

Ye shared a screenshot showing Diddy in white towels and Cassie picking up her belongings, and the photo was accompanied by a caption that read, "You have to truly be in love to risk everything."

The star's controversial take prompted a community notes comment by X, which clarified, "This is not Love. This is Sean "Diddy" Combs violently assaulting his girlfriend at the time, Cassie." The clarification was sent with a link to the viral video that CNN shared at the time.

Multiple commenters condemned the rapper for standing behind such a terrible display, asking how he would feel if a man abused his daughters that way.
