Kanye West isn’t letting his Instagram suspension get him down.

On Wednesday, Ye was spotted at the Golden State Warriors game with his son, Saint, just hours after Instagram suspended him from the platform. Father and son grabbed a courtside seat at San Francisco’s Chase Center as the Warriors took on the Boston Celtics, wearing matching hoodies, jackets, and boots.

Ye was seen chatting up Warriors co-owner Joseph Lacob throughout the game. The proud father also introduced his 6-year-old son to Celtics star Jaylen Brown and snapped a photo on the court.

This comes amid Ye’s custody battle with Kim Kardashian. He claimed that their daughter North missed out on his DONDA 2 performance in Miami as well as a Donda Doves basketball game and Sunday Service. “This is the kind of stuff that’s just like the Chicago birthday party,” he quipped in a video over the weekend.

Instagram placed a 24-hour ban on Ye following his social media attacks on Kim, Pete Davidson, and Trevor Noah. He changed the lyrics to “Kumbaya” to include a racial slur aimed at the “Daily Show” host, who spoke out about his “harassment” of Kim.

“You’re an indelible part of my life Ye. Which is why it breaks my heart to see you like this,” Noah wrote in response to Ye’s attack. “I don’t care if you support Trump and I don’t care if you roast Pete. I do however care when I see you on a path that’s dangerously close to peril and pain.”

According to a spokesperson for Meta, Ye violated the platform’s policies on hate speech, bullying, and harassment. He is restricted from posting and commenting for 24 hours. Further action will be taken if necessary.

The Yeezy mogul was recently suspended from Instagram for violating its bullying and harassment policy.

50’s liquor brand will participate in several events with the NBA team and its arena.

The rapper has been trying to get ahold of the money owed to him since 2018.

Jack Harlow has worked with everyone from Lil Nas X to Eminem, and now he’s eyeing a collaboration with the Queen of Country.

As he gears up for his sophomore album, the Louisville rapper revealed that he is speaking with Dolly Parton’s team about recording a song.

“I want to put her on some hard shit,” he told Rolling Stone.

It’s unclear if the Dolly collab will make his upcoming album Come Home the Kids Miss You, which arrives May 6.

Harlow is particular about his collaborations and admits that he is hesitant to accept features on pop songs. “You won’t believe what I’ve turned down, because this pocket we’ve got right now is fragile, man,” he said. “I’ve turned down so much shit that would have been a big ol’ bag.”

While he is keeping a tight lid on the featured guests, he did open up about the direction of his next album. “My new shit is much more serious. Right now, my message is letting muh’fu**ers know I love hip-hop, and I’m one of the best in my generation,” he said. “You can’t do that with nonchalant, like, ‘Eeey, I got the bitches,’ in clever ways over and over again. I got to dig deeper this time.”

He’s pushing himself to be the best. “I want to be the face of my shit, like the face of my generation, for these next 10 years,” he added. “We need more people in my generation that are trying to be the best, and you can’t do that with just ear candy, vibe records. You got to come out swinging sometimes.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Harlow addressed 2020’s “What’s Poppin’” remix featuring Tory Lanez and DaBaby. He faced pressure to remove the rappers from the song after DaBaby made homophobic remarks at Rolling Loud and Lanez was charged with shooting Megan Thee Stallion.

When asked about the controversy, he responds, “I know I’m a good person. My character, my integrity are very important to me. And I think I’ve done such a good job that now I’m being forced to answer for other people’s actions. It doesn’t feel right as a grown man to speak for other grown men all the time. . . . One thing’s for sure, is that Megan got shot. And I wish her nothing but love and respect.”

The actor/rapper tells HipHopDX the D-O-Double-G wants to executive produce the project as well.
