Kanye West is back on Twitter following the site's takeover by 'friend' Elon Musk.
The controversial rapper was previously banned from the social media website following a series of bizarre online attacks and vile racist messages.
Ye was blasted for a gross anti-Semitic tweet amid a series of strange posts also shared to his Instagram account – where he was also 'restricted'.
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.
But now, he's back on Twitter – just one day after the world's richest man Elon Musk took ownership of the popular social media platform.
It was the beginning of this month that Kanye posted his first tweet in two years, following the restrictions on his Instagram account.
"Welcome back to Twitter, my friend," Elon tweeted to the Bound 2 rapper at the time.
Elon also revealed, following Ye's suspension from Twitter, that he was forced to have words with his 'friend' after the anti-Semitic message.
"Talked to ye today and expressed my concerns about his recent tweet, which I think he took to heart," Musk wrote on Twitter.
The 'talk' didn’t seem to do much as Kanye continued his controversial moves on social media this month – including the tweets to his 30million followers.
Kanye, at time of publication, has not yet tweeted from his reinstated account, but previous messages are still available – including a retweet of Elon's 'welcome back' message.
In a recent interview with Piers Morgan, Kanye was challenged repeatedly about his use of language, following which he declared abruptly: "Interview adjourned. Love you," before walking off set.
After a few minutes of discussion, he eventually sat back down to continue the interview.
He added: "I will say I'm sorry for the people I hurt. I feel like I caused hurt and confusion and I am sorry for the families of the people who had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through.
"And that I used my platform where you say, I hurt people, and I was hurt."
Also in the interview, Kanye admits talking to former US president Donald Trump about the ordeal, having been banned from social media himself.
Kanye said: "Actually, I was talking to Trump a couple of days ago, and he was like, I'm not going to do his voice right…but he was saying…'You know, I had 277 million followers and the next day I had nothing' and that related to you know.
"Mark Zuckerberg - Meta, you know, Mark Zuckerberg thinks he is the government.
"These tech companies feel they're more powerful than the US Government to the point of actually kicking the actual President of the United States off of an American social media platform. This is the world we live in."
