“There is noUtopiawithout Kanye West. There is no Travis Scott without Kanye West,” Scott told the audience, before launching into “Can’t Tell Me Nothing,” according toVariety. “There is no Rome without Kanye West. Make some noise for Ye.”
While West’s performance was met with applause from the crowd, the antisemitic remarks he made throughout the fall and winter of 2022brought condemnation from many of his colleagues. The rapper also faced suspensions on social media,including from Twitter(now known as X).
Elon Musk, then CEO of Twitter, suspended West on Dec. 2, 2022. “I tried my best,” Musk, 52, wrote at the time. “Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended.”
West also lost endorsement deals and major brand partnerships withAdidas,Gap,Balenciagaand others, leading to himlosing his status as a billionaire.
West’s X account was reinstated in late Julyafter an eight-month suspension. However, West cannot monetize his posts and advertising will not be shown alongside his messages. He has not posted since his account was reactivated.
