Under his new moniker “Ye,” Kanye West inaugurates his Instagram era with an impassioned post targeting ex-wife Kim Kardashian, urging her to withdraw their children from Sierra Canyon private school in a Thursday morning outburst.
Branding the elite Los Angeles institution as a “fake school” catering to celebrities exploited by “the system,” Ye, 46, escalates his criticism.
Recently debuting his new Instagram account and chastising brands for neglecting his new name, his profile has already garnered nearly 20 million followers.
The rapper shared a photo of a message, boldly written in all caps.
“Kim take my kids out of Sierra Canyon now,” the message read. “It’s a fake school for celebrities that are used by ‘the system.'”
In the caption, the musician wrote, “At this point, everybody knows what ‘the system’ is code word for
He continued, “I was removed from my dad by the system and the system removed me from my children,” adding, “When the system drafts athletes they avoid working with those who have their father in their life because they are harder to manipulate.”
Ye concluded the caption with a poignant statement, affirming, “My two oldest know [who] they daddy is.”
Kim and Ye are parents to four children: North West, 10; Saint West, 8; Chicago West, 6; and Psalm West, 4.
The post garnered numerous messages from followers, predominantly criticizing Ye for airing family matters and disclosing his children’s school publicly.
One user questioned, “You mean to tell me you don’t have her private number to discuss this ‘serious matter’ involving your kids? Or do you prefer to let the whole world know?”
Another commented, “What the f— Kanye, text her and be a mature guy, no really.”
A third user expressed frustration, stating, “Those kids are gonna HATE their dad when they grow up,” while a fourth remarked, “Why would you tell people where the kids go, smh.”
People were bewildered by this bizarre rant. “Kim got the most stressful baby daddy out of anyone,” one person wrote. Someone else commented, “Let this be an example for all the ladies out there. Be careful on who you choose to have babies with. 🙄🙄”
Others called out West’s own inappropriate behavior. One comment that garnered over 22,000 likes said, “You got your kids walking around with a half naked lady she needa keep the kids from you.”
“Go post more inappropriate photos of your wife and stop posting custody issues for the world to see 😳,” another wrote.
