Kanye West Makes Bizarre Appeal To Musk, Days After Being Banished From Twitter

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.

A post shared by Ye (@kanyewest)


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.
