Kanye West launches unhinged attack on Jay-Z and Beyonce's children
Kanye West launched into a social media tirade against his former mentor Jay-Z and Beyoncé's seven-year-old twins as the rappers' tumultuous relationship reached a crescendo.
West, 47, peddled rumors that the Texas Hold 'Em hitmaker used in vitro fertilization to conceive Rumi and Sir Carter while questioning their cognitive development in an X post which was later removed and then reposted.
'Wait has anyone ever seen Jay-Z and Beyonce's younger kids they're r*******,' he tweeted Tuesday. 'No like literally and this is why artificial insemination is such a blessing having r******* children is a choice.'
West reuploaded the post early Wednesday morning, with the addition: 'If Twitter take my s**t down them so be it but I need yall to no Jay Z or nobody have no power over me.'
The rapper, who has faced severe backlash for his antisemitic, homophobic and misogynistic remarks on the platform in recent weeks, went on to post another seven times about Jay Z and Beyoncé seven in just over 20 minutes.
'Concerning the Jay Z and Beyoncé tweet n***** said I woukd [sic] regret it,' he wrote in his most recent post. 'I regret taking it down… my Twitter is a one way conversation.'
The rappers have fallen out multiple times throughout the years since their first meeting in 2000, when the West produced a track for Beanie Sigel, a signee to Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records.
Their first major public rift occurred after Jay-Z and Beyoncé decided to skip West's wedding to Kim Kardashian in 2014. West told Charlamagne tha God he 'was hurt' on iHeartRadio's The Breakfast Club in 2018.
After Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in Paris in 2016 while West was performing in New York, the rapper reflected later while on stage that same year, alleging that Jay Z wasn't supportive of him. The next day, West was hospitalized for stress and exhaustion, reportedly suffering from hallucinations.
In 2018, however, Jay-Z told David Letterman that West was his 'little brother.' By 2022, West said that Beyoncé should let her husband cheat on her.
Just hours before attacking Jay-Z and Beyoncé on X, West unloaded on rapper Playboi Carti – who was arrested on aggravated assault charges for an alleged incident involving his girlfriend in 2023 – claiming that they were both violent towards women.
'Carti beat women, I beat women but everybody hate Diddy,' West tweeted on Tuesday evening. Sean 'Diddy' Combs awaits trial for a litany of charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
West followed up the X post by tweeting: 'Make up sex be crazy after a big fight.'
The 24-time Grammy Award-winning artist has also attacked other hip-hop stars in recent days, including Cardi B, Iggy Azalea and Kendrick Lamar.

Prince William makes solo Royal Ascot outing after Kate pulls out last minute
Prince William has arrived at the Royal Ascot alone after Princess Kate pulled out of the event at the last minute. With one hour to spare before the second day of Royal Ascot began, it was revealed Kate would not be attending as she continues to find the right balance following her treatment for cancer. William arrived in the first royal carriage alongside King Charles, Queen Camilla and Prince Saud bin Khalid Al-Saud. The Prince of Wales had been down to travel in the second carriage alongside Kate, but was bumped up to his father's carriage when it emerged Kate would not be there. Despite his wife not being by his side, William is still attending the second day of the five-day meet in Berkshire, as he will award the winner of the Prince of Wales race with their trophy. In keeping with the strict formal dress code, William donned a traditional morning suit. Charles and Camilla were also dressed in their racing best, with Camilla opting for a rare pop of colour in monochromatic green outfit. Racegoers had been hoping to see Kate as Prince William is named as one of the figures awarding race prizes during the second day of the meet. Her name had also been included in the official programme as taking part in today's carriage procession in the second carriage alongside William. But just minutes after the carriage list had been released, Kensington Palace confirmed she would not be there. It is understood she is trying to find the right balance as she fully returns to public-facing engagements. A royal source reiterated that Kensington Palace has consistently stressed the need for 'flexibility' around the Princess of Wales' public engagements. The source added that the princess completed three engagements in the last week, attending the new V&A East Storeroom exhibition space in London, the King's official birthday celebrations at Trooping the Colour on Saturday and Garter Day on Monday in Windsor. The princess was said to be disappointed at not attending the famous social and sporting occasion in Berkshire with her husband and the King and Queen. This is the second year in a row Kate has not attended the annual social event as during last year's Royal Ascot, she was in the middle of her cancer treatment. While Kate announced in January that her cancer was now in remission and she is focussed on healing, today's statement confirmed that she is still trying to find the right balance between her royal duties and the effects of her health battle. Kate and William have already been spotted at two major royal events this week: Trooping the Colour on Saturday to celebrate the King's birthday, and Garter Day on Monday.

Kate misses Royal Ascot for second year as she aims for right balance
Kate is said to be disappointed at not attending the famous social and sporting occasion in Berkshire with her husband and the King and Queen. She has been making a gradual return to public duties since it was announced in January she was in remission from cancer. Her public appearances have increased in recent weeks and she has attended three high profile events including Trooping the Colour, the annual Order of the Garter service and a visit to a V&A storage facility in London. But it is understood she is trying to find the right balance as she fully returns to public-facing engagements. Racegoers had been hoping to see Kate as William was named as one of the figures awarding race prizes during the second day of the meeting. She was named in the list of guests joining Charles and Camilla in the carriage procession. The list was quickly amended removing Kate's name after Kensington Palace confirmed she would not be attending.
