Kanye Westvisited a design school on Tuesday, but perhaps the most emphatic lesson he provided students was not about art.
“Kanye really came to our little art school and told us to leave elon musk alone,” the user wrote.

The comment immediately sent Tesla’s stock soaring, but almost two weeks later, Musk and the company clarifiedTesla was indeed staying public. At least five shareholdershave filed lawsuitsafter they suffered losses in response to Musk’s tweet, CNN reported.
West’s comment about Musk’s home may have been a reference to fellow rapperAzealia Banks, 27.In a series of tweets, Banks revealed she flew out to Musk’s home to collaborate with his girlfriend, the musician Grimes, 30, in August.But during her stay, Banks claimed that she saw Musk use acid while dealing with business affairs, and felt that she was only invited so she could participate in a threesome with the couple.
In a response to PEOPLE, a spokesperson previously called Banks’ claims “absolute nonsense.”
During hisSaturday Night Liveperformanceover the weekend, West once again voiced his support forPresident Donald Trumpwhile wearing a Make America Great Again hat.
“Actually, blacks weren’t always Democrats,” he started. “It’s like a plan they did to take the fathers out the homes and promote welfare. Does anybody know about that? That’s the Democratic plan.”

The “Runaway” singer then concluded: “It’s so many times that I talk to a white person about this, and they say, ‘How could you support Trump? He’s racist.’ Well if I was concerned about racism, I would have moved out of America a long time ago. We don’t just make our decisions off of racism. I’ma break it down to you right now: If someone inspires me and I connect with them, I don’t have to believe in all they policies.”
