Rapper and record producer Daz Dillinger claims that Kanye West has issued a restraining order against him.

In an Instagram post that is now deleted, Dillinger sent a "Crip alert" to "f*** [the rapper] up]," reports Music-News.

"We are in one boat and they’re killing all of us. He jumps over there and says ‘Master, I’m your side. I’m with you master Trump. Burn all these n****s," he said in the video.

He continued, "Better not ever see you in concert; better not ever see you around the LBC (Long Beach California); better not ever see you around California."

Dillinger also told West to "stay in Calabasas" and added "all the Crips out there – you see him, bang on his a**, f**k his a** up."

Following the video, Dillinger posted to Snapchat saying the rapper had taken legal action on him following his Instagram post.

He said, "Kanye put a restraining order on me, I appreciate it."

When West appeared on TMZ yesterday, he responded to Dillinger's message saying, "I love Daz, I love the Crips," which Dillinger later posted on Instagram.

Since the "Famous" rapper announced his support for President Donald Trump on Twitter last week, he's been criticised heavily on social media and by his peers.

Twitter posts from West included a photo of him wearing a Make America Great Again hat and praising right-wing commentator Candace Owens for the way she thinks.
