Kanye West had both his Twitter and Instagram accounts restricted over the weekend following a violation of the social media platforms' policies.
The rapper, 45, has caused a stir online in recent days after wearing a White Lives Matter shirt at his latest Yeezy fashion show.
He has since called the Black Lives Matter movement a "scam" and hit out at critics including Gigi Hadid and Vogue editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson.
Kanye, who has legally changed his name to Ye, had his Instagram account suspended after a now-deleted post which involved anti-Semitic tropes, accusing Sean "Diddy" Combs of being controlled by "the Jewish people".
After getting locked out of Instagram, Kanye turned to Twitter to share a post for the first time in two years.
He posted a blurry photo standing alongside Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, writing: "Look at this Mark. How you gone kick me off Instagram."
He later tweeted: "I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.
"The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda."
The post has since been removed and replaced by a message from Twitter which reads: "This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules."
"The account in question has been locked due to a violation of Twitter’s policies," a spokesperson for the platform told BuzzFeed News.
The Mirror has reached out to representatives of Twitter for comment.
Meta, which owns Instagram, confirmed to The Mirror they had "deleted content from @kanyewest" for violating their policies. They also placed a restriction on his account.
Restrictions on Instagram can include temporarily restricting someone from posting, commenting, or sending direct messages.
Kanye's now-removed tweet comes just hours after billionaire Elon Musk, who has previously expressed an interest in buying Twitter, welcomed him back after his years of inactivity.
Elon, who calls himself a free speech absolutist, wrote: "Welcome back to Twitter, my friend!"
The American Jewish Committee advocacy group shared a video to Instagram on Friday, accusing Kanye of making "incoherent rants laden with racist and anti-Semitic undertones."
The post came after the musician appeared in a Fox News interview with Tucker Carlson.
During their conversation, Kanye skirted the line about people who order others around. He accused former White House advisor Jared Kushner, who is Jewish, of brokering Israeli treaties for monetary gain.
