Kanye West allowed back on Twitter following his ban over antisemitic conspiracies
Social media platform Twitter, now called X, has reinstated the account of rapper Ye, the artiste formerly known as Kanye West, after he was suspended eight months ago for hate speech. The account was reinstated on Saturday eight months after the rapper was suspended for breaking the platform’s rules prohibiting incitement to violence. Ye got his account back after assuring the platform owned by Elon Musk that he wouldn’t use it to share antisemitic or otherwise harmful language, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing a person familiar with the matter. The artiste will also not be eligible to monetise his account, a new feature added by Mr Musk for paid subscribers, while advertisements won’t appear next to his posts either, the report said citing the social media platform. Ye has not posted anything new since coming back on the platform. His account showed his last post to be from December 2022, which was just two months after it was reinstated following an earlier lock out of his account. Mr Musk, who calls himself a free speech absolutist, had in November welcomed the return of the rapper to the platform, after his account was reinstated for the first time. But on December, one of his posts appeared to show a swastika symbol inside a Star of David, which led to Mr Musk suspending his account after he violated the platform’s policy against inciting violence. Ye lost his account and his partnership with Adidas and Gap for Yeezy products soon after, when he went on a string of antisemitic rants in interviews and on social media. Mr Musk had previously also reinstated former US president Donald Trump’s account after conducting a poll in which some 14.8 million Twitter users had voted with 51.8 per cent voting in favour of the reinstatement. But Mr Trump said he had no interest in returning to Twitter and would stick to his own platform Truth Social.

Cardi B aims fresh three word insult at woman she threw microphone at
Rapper Cardi B has responded to the woman who threw water at her during a recent concert which saw the star violently propel her microphone back at the over-exuberant fan. The 30-year-old artist was performing at a night at Drai's Beach Club in Las Vegas. Although it's unclear when the incident occurred the clip began circulating on social media on Saturday after it was shared by the Twitter account Pop Base. The 'WAP' star was singing her hit 'Bodak Yellow' to a packed audience when she was suddenly drenched with water from the side of the stage. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter In an almost instant retaliation, Cardi B hurled her microphone in the direction of the woman who threw the water much to the shock of security, the audience and the other people on stage with her. The 18-second clip concludes with the rapper looking disturbed and confused while trying to calm herself as the song continues playing. An alternative angle of the incident was shared by Cardi B herself on Twitter when she retweeted a fan account featuring strongly worded lyrics from her and her husband's (OffSet) new song: 'Jealousy'. The tweet simply featured the words 'Jealous A** B***h!' Cardi B also tweeted herself by posting: "WATER AND GAS INCLUDED …Literally." The rapper is the latest star to have things thrown at them on stage with the likes of Pin, Bebe Rexha, Harry Styles and Taylor Swift all being subjected to the bizarre trend with some incidents resulting in injury for artists.
