Kanye West reignited his feud with Drake in a series of scathing tweets claiming the rapper “threatened” him in a call.

West, now calling himself Ye, reignited the war of words between the rappers on Thursday night, rambling in over 80 tweets.

He accused Drake of “threatening the safety of him and his family” and told him to “leave him and his family alone”.

West also warned the Canadian star away from his children North, five, Saint, three and 10-month-old Chicago who he shares with reality star wife Kim Kardashian.

West wrote: “So Drake if anything happens to me or anyone from my family you are the first suspect. So cut the tough talk.”

He then alleged that Drake had been behind an incident at a Pusha T concert during which fans stormed the stage, claiming that the “kid he sent on” was the one in a “critical condition”.

His scathing rant continued by taking aim at Drake for “picking on people with mental health issues”, branding him “disrespectful” and urging him to “grow”.

But West also used his eight-hour tirade to remind Drake that he “loves” him and that he would “never intentionally hurt him”.

One tweet read: “I’m Ye bro Remember that I love you I would never intentionally hurt you. That’s what I’ve been saying to you (sic).”

West also voted to “never make a diss track with negative energy” and referenced Pusha T’s track which revealed Drake has a secret child.

In two separate tweets, he wrote: “I would never mention your (blank). You’re mad at me for something I didn’t do.”

After moving on from Drake, West also targeted Travis Scott – who is dating his sister-in-law Kylie Jenner – for featuring the artist on his track SICKO MODE.

In a series of rants, West wrote: “How you gone be on Trav’s song coming at me. Trav should have never allowed that.

“I used to bring Travis with me everywhere with me I'm an inspiration to both him and Drake.

“Trav is my family and let this met throw sneak disses at me for clout (sic).”

Drake is yet to publicly respond to any of the claims, but he did appear to reference the Twitter outburst by posting a series of crying with laughter emojis on his Instagram story.

Representatives for Drake declined to comment when contacted by Standard Online.
