It seems Kanye West does not like what Trevor Noah had to say about Kanye West behavior in regards to Kim Kardashian and her new relationship with Pete Davidson. Tuesday, Noah took a moment on his show to address the situation stating "I'll be honest with you — what I see from the situation is a woman who wants to live her life without being harassed by an ex-boyfriend or an ex-husband or an ex-anything," Noah said. "You may not feel sorry for Kim because she's rich and famous, because she appropriates Black culture ... but what she's going through is terrifying to watch and shines a spotlight on what so many women go through when they choose to leave."
On Wednesday, Kanye West found his Instagram account had been suspended for 24 hours because he violated their policy when he used a racial slur targeted at Trevor Noah.
In a since-deleted Instagram post, West rewrote the lyrics of "Kumbaya" as "k--- baya my lord," using a slur referring to a Black person who rejects their ethnicity. West made the disparaging remarks after Noah made the following cautious statement about Kanye, Kim and Pete on his show.
Now, Trevor Noah is responding to Kanye's remarks with kindness and concern with a lengthy post. Noah wrote:
"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. 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."
Since then, Kanye's Instagram account has deleted all post from his page. Do you think Noah's message was recieved?
