The owner of X, Elon Musk has unfollowed popular rapper, Kanye West on his platform. This is coming following a surge of anti-Semitic content by the lyricist, and fans have been reacting.

I’m never apologizing for my Jewish comments. I can say whatever the f*** I wanna say forever.
Jewish people don’t run me no more. Some of my best friends are Jewish and I don’t trust any of them.”
