Kanye West is on the social media warpath again, posting incessantly on Instagram about everything from usual punchbag Pete Davidson to the (fake) death of the Adidas CEO.
The flurry of posting started innocently enough with a touching picture of tennis icon Venus Williams and the late Virgil Abloom, but then things kicked off.
Ye shared several screenshots of what appeared to be text messages between himself and former partner Kim Kardashian. After Kim shared a message from her mum, Kris Jenner, asking the rapper to stop talking about her in public, Ye retaliated.
“Ya’ll don’t have so so over my black children and where they go to school,” his text message read. “They will not do playboy and sex tapes… Tell your Clinton friends to come get me… I’m here.”
Ye followed that up with a note expressing his displeasure at how the media sees him. “I obviously am dealing with wars at the highest levels of control and discrimination based on the level I’m operating at,” he alleged. “A conductor gotta turn they back to the audience to direct the orchestra.”
Several more posts returned to the subject of where his kids should go to school, before it was time for Pete Davidson. “Ask Pete how those tattoos of my kids doing in the trauma unit,” he wrote, referring to the tattoos of Kim and her children’s initials that the comedian got earlier this year.
At the time of writing, his last post just contained the name ‘Travis Scott’ with the word ‘Is’ placed between it. Ye also earlier posted and then deleted a fake New York Times newspaper headline that falsely claimed Adidas CEO Kasper Rørsted had ‘died’ at 60.

It’s unclear what prompted the rapper to post so frequently today. None of the people he’s referenced have yet commented publicly on the posts.
