Musk’s X social media platform reinstates Kanye West’s account

Social media platform X reinstated account of Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, on Saturday, after it was suspended nearly eight months ago because the rapper had violated the platform’s rules prohibiting incitement to violence.

Ye’s account now shows his last post from Dec. 1, a day prior to when his account was suspended on platform X, the new name owner Elon Musk has given Twitter.

Ye won’t be eligible to monetize his account on X, and advertisements won’t appear next to his posts, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday, citing the social media platform.
