Trying to keep count of how many times Kanye West has exited or been exiled from Twitter is one tough task. Elon Musk’s strategies to keep the ‘Graduation’ rapper in check resemble those of a parent who puts their child in time-out after stepping out of line. But just like the rapper’s loyal fans, Musk cannot seem to stay mad at the 46-year-old for long. Now returning to the platform just a few days ago, he has grabbed everybody’s attention once again. 

What did the father of four do to get Twitter buzzing this time, you ask? The answer is nothing and everything. Known for their controversial nature, his tweets are always scrutinized by his fans and skeptics alike. But the rapper has washed his hands of all his previous posts and completely cleaned out his account. And that’s not all. Also unfollowing every single account, he brings his following list down to zero. Some Twitter users have even been worried he might fall back into his old ways.

Fans who were happy to see him return to Twitter after seven long months are obviously left puzzled. Because another major change to his account points us in a different direction. Joining the likes of Pepsi and McDonald’s, West’s account has returned with a gold tick reserved for official businesses. Maybe the tick is alluding to the Grammy winner finally releasing another album. After all, the owner of the platform, Musk himself, posted an old album cover of West’s just two weeks ago.

The seven-month-long separation from their favorite rapper has some fans reeling in anticipation. One fan who seems to be trying to shout through the screen, says “PLEASE I CANT WAIT ANY LONGER.

Some Twitter users are convinced that the 46-year-old getting reinstated to Twitter signifies that his music will follow soon too. One user goes as far as to speculate who he might collaborate on his next album with.
