MENLO PARK, CALIFORNIA: Kanye West went after tech mogul Mark Zuckerberg after the latter restricted his Instagram account for posting a private conversation with Sean "Diddy" Combs in which West reportedly claimed Combs was controlled by Jewish people.

In the text exchange, Combs stated, "I'm trying to talk to you as a black man. And I'm talking to you because this is hurting our people. Stop." To which West replied, "Anything you text, I will post." Diddy was reportedly asking Kanye to stop wearing the 'White Lives Matter' sweatshirts.

Soon after, when these messages were posted on his Instagram, West's account was temporarily restricted from the platform.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Ye then took to Twitter in protest and lashed out against Zuckerberg for restricting him on Instagram. He tweeted, "Look at this Mark. How you gone kick me off instagram You used to be my n***a." However, a spokesperson of Meta stated, "We may place restrictions on accounts that repeatedly break our rules." Meanwhile, it is not clear what rules Kanye has broken but he has been using the platform to criticize individuals, including model Gigi Hadid, recently. 



 

The rapper recently ran into a controversy about wearing a sweatshirt with 'White Lives Matter' emblazoned on it with Candace Owens at Paris Fashion Week. In response to this, he also said that the Black Lives Matter movement was a scam. He said, "The answer to why I wrote ‘White Lives Matter’ on a shirt is because they do. It’s the obvious thing." The 'White Lives Matter' is a movement that came in response to the 'Black Lives Matter' which was initiated after the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman.



 

The sweatshirt also had a photo of Pope John Paul II on the front. It was worn by the models during the walk, reported The Guardian. “Everyone here knows that I am the leader … you can’t manage me. This is an unmanageable situation," said Kanye during the special show. Meanwhile, the Anti-Defamation League has categorized the phrase 'White Lives Matter' as a hate statement. The show signifies the return of Kanye's high-ended fashion business after abruptly ending his collaboration with Gap and Adidas in September. He was widely criticized for his antic, including Gigi and Vogue editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson.



 

Meanwhile, West also recently spoke to Tucker Carlson during an interview with Fox News after he returned from Paris. "I do certain things from a feeling, I just channel the energy. It feels right, hits using a gut instinct, connection with God and just brilliance," said Kanye. He also said he thought the idea of him "wearing the shirt was funny" and his father - who he claimed was a former Black Panther - thought so too. 

Kanye added, "Dad, why do you think it's funny?. It's just a black man stating the obvious. That was my favorite response, because I kept thinking: People are looking for an explanation. And people say as an artist you have don't have to an explanation, but as a leader you do."
