Following Kanye West’s suspension from Twitter due to an antisemitic post, the controversial musician went to Instagram to call out Twitter’s CEO Elon Musk.

The Yeezy founder alleges that Musk could be a clone. He also mentioned Former President Barack Obama.

“Am I the only one who thinks Elon could be half-Chinese? Have you ever seen his pics as a child? Take a Chinese genius and mate them with a South African supermodel and we have an Elon,” he wrote. “I say an Elon because they probably made 10 to 30 Elon’s and he’s the first genetic hybrid that stuck… Well, let’s not forget about Obama.”

West continued, “I’m sorry for using curse words in church but I don’t have another word for Obama yet.”

The presidential hopeful captioned the message, “On Jay Zs birthday Future president of the United States Ye uses Mark Zuckerberg’s platform to incite a mass investigation of Elon Musk’s childhood photos in the midst of Balenciagagate,” he wrote. “I call this The theory of everything Problem solved Praise God.”

Following Ye’s Instagram post about the Tesla founder, Musk reacted on Twitter writing, “I take that as a compliment!”

Last Friday (Dec. 2), Ye was suspended from Twitter after he posted a photo of the Star of David combined with a swastika per CNBC. Musk responded to a Kanye fan asking him to “fix” the rapper. “I tried my best,” the Tesla founder wrote. “Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended.”

A day before West was suspended from Twitter, he went viral due to antisemitic comments on InfoWars with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Ye has been under fire due to his antisemitic remarks for several weeks leading to this InfoWars interview. When the rapper made an antisemitic tweet back in October, his Twitter was restricted along with his Instagram where he shared a text thread with Diddy that included an antisemitic remark. His Twitter account was reinstated last month before the recent suspension made by Musk.
