Kanye West claims his 2002 car crash caused ‘signs of autism’ in text messages to Elon Musk

In newly-surfaced text messages to Elon Musk, rapper Kanye West has claimed he has “signs of autism” and declared he isn’t bipolar.

Kanye West has claimed his 2002 car crash caused "signs of autism".

Kanye West has claimed he has “signs of autism” in a new text to Elon Musk.

The Yeezy fashion designer requested his friend Ian Connor share screenshots on Instagram of his purported messages to the Tesla co-founder, in which he also declared he is not bipolar.

“When are we going to speak You owe me nothing,” the texts, posted early Wednesday, began.

“You never have to speak to me again But if we do speak The nature of the relationship has to change I’m not bipolar I have signs of autism from my [2002] car accident,” he said, referring to his famous crash that led to his hit song “Through the Wire” in which he rapped with his jaw wired shut.

West, 46, first revealed he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2018 but years later claimed during a Twitter tirade that he was “mentally misdiagnosed.”

“So I will say this again I was mentally misdiagnosed and nearly drugged out of my mind to make me a manageable well behaved celebrity,” he tweeted in 2022.

In the new texts, West also invoked his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, by allegedly telling Musk that he “can’t watch Kim keep my kids from me.”

The Flashing Lights rapper ended his apparent messages by blasting Musk, 52, for describing him as a “friend” so that West could bring his “audience to your struggling platform,” referring to Twitter.

Connor, who is a stylist, also shared a text of West telling him to get the screenshots “out to the public.”

West was forced to enlist his colleague after being banned from the platform following a series of anti-Semitic rants, one of which involved rapper Diddy.

“Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me,” he responded to the I’ll Be Missing You rapper.

It’s unclear what prompted West’s circuitous route back to social media, as he’s been busy packing on the PDA with his wife, Bianca Censori, in Europe.

Although West claimed Kardashian, 42, has been keeping their four children from him, the Jesus Walks performer was photographed with his son Saint at a soccer game in Italy just a couple of weeks ago.

The father-son duo sat in a luxury box, where West was spotted texting on his phone throughout the match.

The former couple were married from 2014 to 2022, and Ye secretly married Censori, 28, last December.
