Kanye West, or Ye, or the disgraced rapper formerly known as Kanye West, has posted a bizarre message to Instagram positing that Elon Musk might be Chinese.
Days after the rapper was banned from Musk’s Twitter following a barrage of deeply offensive anti-Semitic statements, he has started up again.

Referring to himself as the “Future president [sic] of the United States,” Ye wrote:
“Ye uses Mark Zuckerberg’s platform to incite a mass investigation of Elon Musk’s childhood photos in the midst of Balenciagagate I call this The theory of everything Problem solved Praise God.”
He also added:
“Am I the only one who thinks Elon could be half Chinese? Have you ever seen his pics as a child?
“Take a Chinese genius and mate them with a South African super model
“And we have an Elon
“I say an Elon because the probably made 10 to 30 Elon’s [sic] and he’s the first genetic hybrid that stuck ….
“Well let’s not forget about Obama
“I’m sorry for using curse words in church but I don’t have another word for Obama yet
“YE24 let’s unify and find out LUAFO.”
Musk, of course, is the eldest child of Canadian-South African Maye and South African Errol Musk.
It’s unclear exactly what Ye is looking to gain from this post — whether he’s trying to woo Musk to let him back on Twitter, or whether he is looking to somehow galvanise is fast-waning support for a run at the Presidency.
