Kayne West, the rapper now known as Ye, has been suspended from Instagram for harassing Kim Kardashian, Pete Davidson and Trevor Noah, reported USA Today.

Instagram’s parent company Meta confirmed that content had been removed from West’s account for violating the hate speech, bullying and harassment policies, while he was also flagged for using a slur against Noah.

For the next 24 hours, Kayne will also not be able post anything or interact in any form on the social media platform.

The now removed post attacking Noah surfaced after the comedian's segment on his popular "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" and talked about the rapper's online harassment. During the segment, Noah discussed how he grew up in an abusive household and could relate to Kardashian’s experience with West.

"One of the things I found most interesting was how many people told my mom that she was overreacting (to domestic violence)," Noah said. "Maybe that’s why I look at the story differently, to be honest with you. … If Kim Kardashian cannot escape this, then what chance do normal women have?"

During the last few weeks, West has unleashed a slew of social media attacks on his ex-wife and her new beau Davidson. The two initially clicked when Kardashian hosted "Saturday Night Live" in October.

West and Kardashian have four children together, namely, North, eight; Saint, six; Chicago, four; and Psalm, two.

Even the video of West’s new song seems to feature a claymation caricature of Davidson being tortured in various ways including by being tied to a car and driven around by a claymation West.
