Kanye Claims He ‘Ran’ Pete Off Instagram by Bombarding Him With Posts Calling Him ‘Skete’

So long, “Skete.” While Kanye West and Pete Davidson’s Instagram saga likely isn’t ending any time soon, one of them isn’t sticking around to entertain the madness any longer.

Pete quit the social platform yet again—and this time, Ye is taking credit for driving him off the app. After Pete deleted his Instagram, Kanye took to his own Instagram account to boast about the Saturday Night Live comedian’s exit from the platform. “Ran Skete off the gram,” the 44-year-old rapper wrote, referring to Pete. “Tell your mother I changed your name for life.” Kanye has been targeting Pete for weeks as the comedian continues to date Ye’s estranged wife, Kim Kardashian, who filed for divorce from the Grammy winner in February 2021.

The King of Staten Island star temporarily joined Instagram amid the drama, seemingly hitting back at Ye with a cryptic video shared to his Instagram bio.

The clip, which included a scene from The King of Comedy, featured fictional character Rupert Pupkin (played by Robert DeNiro) saying his famous quote: “Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime.” Many fans interpreted the quote to be a subtle dig at Ye; of course, that only fueled the fire.
