West returned to Twitter on Friday after a lengthy hiatus, where he almost immediately called out Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, saying, “How you gone kick me off instagram.”

He was quickly welcomed back to Twitter by Elon Musk, who confirmed his plans to buy Twitter. “Welcome back to Twitter, my friend,” Musk replied to West’s tweet about Zuckerberg.

The rapper’s Instagram account was restricted after he posted an exchange allegedly between him and Diddy, in which users criticized West for using language that seemed anti-Semitic. The post has since been deleted.
