Kanye West has directed a racial slur at Trevor Noah after the host of The Daily Show called the rapper out for harassing Kim Kardashian amid their divorce drama.
“There are few artists who have had more of an impact on me than you Ye,” he wrote. “You took samples and turned them into symphonies.
“You took your pain and through the wire turned it into performance perfection. I thought differently about how I spend my money because of you, I learned to protect my child-like creativity from grown thoughts because of you, s*** I still smile every time I put on my seatbelt because of you.
“You’re an indelible part of my life Ye. Which is why it breaks my heart to see you like this. I don’t care if you support Trump and I don’t care if you roast Pete. I do however care when I see you on a path that’s dangerously close to peril and pain.”
He then directly addressed West’s use of the racial slur against him, telling him that such moves only serve to divide Black people.
“Clearly some people graduate but we still stupid,” Noah continued.
“Don’t ever forget, the biggest trick racists ever played on black people was teaching us to strip each other of our blackness whenever we disagree. Tricking us into dividing ourselves up into splinters so that we would never unite into a powerful rod.”
West’s post led to the star getting a 24-hour ban from Instagram as it is in violation of its policies on hate speech, bullying and harassment.
