Did Ye Delete His X Account? What’s the Truth Behind It?

Published 06/28/2025, 11:11 PM EDT

Ye’s relationship with the internet has always been…complicated. Formerly known as Kanye West, his digital trail reads like a choose-your-own-meltdown adventure. Add Elon Musk’s X into the mix, and things only get messier, or meme-ier, depending on the scroll. But when Ye hinted he was leaving @kanyewest behind, fans scrambled for answers. Was this a rebrand, a retreat, or just Ye being Ye? The truth, as with everything involving Ye, came with a plot twist.

While Ye’s cryptic post sent fans into a frenzy, the real question still lingers like an unfinished verse: did he actually leave, or just tease the timeline again?

Ye’s cryptic June 1 message, “Ima finally stop using the @kanyewest twitter cause my name is Ye,” sent speculation flying faster than a surprise album drop. Fans assumed a full delete, but plot twist: the @kanyewest account is still very much alive and scrolling. While a new Ye handle is nowhere to be found, the OG remains unbothered and active. The move felt like betrayal, but in Ye’s world, fans should be used to vanishing acts and websites that probably exist only in his head.

This was not Ye’s first digital disappearing act. He previously nuked his account in February 2025 after Super Bowl season controversies, including antisemitic X posts. His final words? A thank-you note to Elon Musk. Classic Ye. The account returned days later, cloaked in a sensitive content warning like a cinematic fade-to-black. Between suspensions in 2022 and unpredictable reactivations, Ye’s X saga has been less of a timeline and more of a time loop.

While Ye’s digital drama hits replay like your favorite remix, the real headline is brewing offline, a legal saga so wild it makes X spats look like casual chit-chat.

Ye is still caught in a legal firestorm with his former Jewish publicist, whose lawsuit includes jaw-dropping accusations. As per Variety, she claims Ye sent her messages like “Welcome to the first day of working for Hitler” and “I Am A Nazi.” In a recent twist, a judge tentatively denied Ye’s attempt to dismiss the case, calling his defense of “artistic expression” downright “frivolous.” The allegations go beyond cancelable; they paint a chilling portrait of power, hate, and recklessness.

As the legal chaos simmered, Ye re-emerged musically with Christian 'King' Combs. Their June 2025 release, 'Never Stop,' raised more than a few eyebrows, thanks to a track titled 'Diddy Free.' The release came just as Sean Diddy Combs’ trafficking trial neared its conclusion. In true Ye fashion, he used the track to both defend Sean Diddy Combs and shade the accusers. To top it off, he made a brief appearance at Sean Diddy Combs’ court proceedings, because why not turn controversy into a photo op?
