Meta claims Kanye West has violated its policies on hate speech, bullying and harassment
American rapper Connie Westin’s Instagram account has been suspended for 24 hours after he allegedly made a racist remark to comedian Trevor Nova.
On his Instagram account, Kanye responded to Trevor Nova’s criticism of his ex-wife, reality TV star Kim Kardashian’s rapper’s behavior, which Nova described as “terrible”.
Noah criticized Kanye for his repeated comments about Kardashian, his children and his partner, American comedian Pete Davidson.
Meta, the owner of Instagram, said Kanye violated the site’s policy on hate speech and bullying and its harassment policies.
Although his Instagram account is still known, Kanye will not be able to post a comment, comment on the post or send a direct message.
In his latest Instagram posts, Kanye accused his ex-wife Kardashian of losing sight of her children – the reality TV star denies it.

Trevor Nova says the way Kanye Kim treated Kardashian highlights the plight of many women
In a statement, Meta said it would take “extra action” if it found further violations of its policies.
“We usually take extra action by setting limits on accounts that violate our terms,” the company added.
Meta also noted that “content has been removed” from Kanye’s account.
While presenting an episode of his satirical news program “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central, Trevor Nova commented on Kanye’s actions towards his ex-wife Kardashian.
Noah said, “You may not sympathize with him because Kim is rich and famous, but what he (Kim) is experiencing is terrible, and illustrates what happens when many women choose to separate.”
Kanye, who legally changed his name to “yes”, publicly fought with Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson. The rapper has been posting pictures of private messages between the three of them.
In response to Trevor Nova’s comments, Kanye posted a picture of the Google search results for Trevor Nova on his Instagram. He linked the film to the lyrics of an African American song, some of which were racially altered.
That post was immediately deleted.
Kanye’s followers can still be contacted by liking or commenting on the posts, but he can’t.
The BBC has contacted representatives for Kanye West for comment.
