Kanye West publicly apologized to Jay-Z on X for his controversial statements about Jay-Z's children. He confessed that he deleted the post in order to prevent losing access to the platform. West's apology on X came after his comments about Jay-Z and Beyoncé's children had caused concern and led the couple to consider legal action. In his post, West expressed regret and feeling let down by individuals in the industry he had considered family. His earlier remarks questioning the mental abilities of Jay-Z and Beyoncé's twins had received criticism for being inappropriate, especially considering the children's young age. Reports emerged that Beyoncé and Jay-Z were looking into legal options in response to West's statements, which they deemed offensive. West clarified that his decision to remove the post was driven by the fear of his Twitter account being suspended and did not indicate genuine remorse. The apology did not directly address the controversial comments about the children.
