Kanye West was temporarily suspended from X, according to Dave Blunts. At this point, no one is shocked, given his history of wild social media rants. This time, Blunts posted a screenshot of the rapper himself explaining that he got banned.
In the viral screenshot, Kanye West posted evidence of his temporary suspension on X to Dave Blunts, instructing him to
"alert the masses."
The alleged screenshot includes a message from X, which states that they detected some behavior that goes against their policies. As a result, Kanye's account was temporarily banned for 12 hours.
During this period, he could not post, re-post, or even send DMs.
The initial response of Dave Blunts to Kanye's message wasn't the ban—it was the album. He inquired:
"What about the album?"
Kanye dismissed it, saying:
"This is more important than the album."
Posting the same, Dave captioned the post:
"Damn bro got banned."
Social media went wild over Kanye's temporary suspension. Some were partying with GIFs and memes, while others were simply perplexed, asking what in the world he posted this time to finally get suspended—especially given that he's been ranting on the internet for so long.
The best part was the exchange that ensued. Kanye West referred to Dave Blunts as "Silent Bob" and tossed in some cryptic China references, and people couldn't stop laughing.
FYI, Silent Bob is a Kevin Smith's movie character, from the films Clerks (1994) and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001). He's played by Kevin Smith himself and is famous for hardly ever saying anything—he just stands there while his chatty, loud friend Jay does all the talking.
Kanye said:
"We're like Ye and Silent Bob."
But what actually cracked users up was Kanye's priorities—he actually makes music for a living, yet somehow, tweeting ranks above releasing an album.
