Kanye West has had his Twitter account deactivated by Elon Musk after a tirade of anti-semitic, misogynistic and racist comments. The American rapper, 47, took a shot 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 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.'. Kanye West's Twitter is deactivated by Elon Musk following tirade of anti-Semitic, misogynistic and racist comments after rapper thanked him for 'allowing him to vent'.

Yet after the musician thanked Elon for 'allowing me to vent' the businessman shut down his account. On Sunday Kanye stressed he was 'in a good space' mentally and that making the controversial comments - which were condemned as racist, sexist, 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 that came after a days-long binge of tweets in which he made repeated anti-Semitic remarks, ultimately deactivating his account.

The strange, brief clip — which aired on the heels of controversial comments condemned as racist, sexist, tone-deaf, misogynistic and ignorant by social media users and multiple celebrities — was shot 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 sunglasses. '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. 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.

Swift appeared dismayed as her beau Travis Kelce's Chiefs were dominated by the Philadelphia Eagles during Sunday's game. 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!'.
