Instagram has restricted Kanye West's account for violating its rules and guidelines.

The rapper took to Twitter on Saturday and directed his grievances at Mark Zuckerberg -- the founder of Facebook and Instagram's parent company, Meta Platforms -- by posting a picture of himself with Zuckerberg at what appears to be some kind of karaoke event.."How you gone kick me off Instagram. You used to be my n***a."
According to multiple reports, a spokesperson for Meta confirmed that Instagram deleted some of his content for violating its rules and guidelines. It's unclear what exactly was removed from Ye's account, but the move comes after the rapper deleted a post Friday that was deemed anti-Semitic. In that post, West shared a screenshot of a text exchange with Sean"Diddy" Combs. That post was captioned,"Jesus is Jew." What's more, the rapper's restriction also reportedly means that, for the time being, he can't share posts, write comments or send direct messages.
