“I’m logging out of Twitter. I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent. It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board. It was like an Ayahuasca trip. Love all of you who gave me your energy and attention. [Until] we connect again. Good afternoon and goodnight.”
According to The Express Tribune, Kanye West's X account was reactivated on February 13, however, all his old posts had been removed. The profile now came with a warning message that read:
