Kanye West Banned from Twitch After 7 Minutes Controversial Livestream Amid Custody Battle

Kanye West’s controversial livestream on Twitch ended abruptly just seven minutes after it started, resulting in him being banned from the platform. This incident occurred amid his ongoing custody battle with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, adding another layer to the already tense situation surrounding the rapper.

Kanye appeared in a motel room during his first-ever Twitch stream, where his antisemitic remarks quickly took center stage. According to reports, West didn’t hesitate to direct offensive comments towards the Kardashian family, his ex-wife Kim, as well as the Jewish community and the LGBTQ+ community. His tirade, filled with slurs and discriminatory language, seemed to be his attempt to spark reactions from the public.

The rapper had reportedly been granted special access to Twitch by Elon Musk, but he squandered it by making hateful comments that violated the platform's Community Guidelines. In just a few minutes, his stream was cut off, and viewers were met with a message stating, “This channel is temporarily unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.”

For many fans who were eager to hear West’s unfiltered thoughts, the abrupt end to the stream left them puzzled. The most frequently asked question among them was, “What did he even do?” Some fans speculated that the streamer’s gesture, imitating a Nazi salute during the livestream, was likely the reason for the immediate ban.

Despite his actions, West managed to capture attention, with some of his fans showing support on social media. One user wrote, “I am really starting to like Kanye,” while another added, “Unban him.” His supporters seemed to embrace his rebellious nature, defending him despite his controversial behavior. However, the rapper, known for his outspoken and often provocative statements, has yet to make any comment regarding his Twitch ban.

In related news, sources have revealed that Kanye West is planning a major stunt for the 2025 American Music Awards, which has already raised concerns among event organizers. His unpredictable nature suggests that the upcoming event could witness yet another attention-grabbing moment.

West’s actions continue to spark debate, as he walks a fine line between celebrity antics and crossing the boundaries of acceptable public discourse. Whether his attempt to win over fans with shock value will succeed or backfire remains to be seen.
