The complete wipe of Kanye’s Instagram also came the day after the death of his close friend and
collaborator, Virgil Abloh.
In a move that has left fans confused, Kanye West completely wiped his Instagram account.
On Monday, fans noticed that Kanye — now legally known as Ye — erased every post from his page, which has over 9.5 million followers.
It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time that Kanye has taken a hiatus from Instagram.
The rapper has been known to sometimes delete his account before making a swift return to his fans. For example, he deleted his account a few times earlier this year before returning in time to tease the release of his 10th studio album, Donda.It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time that Kanye has taken a hiatus from Instagram.

For the first time since they parted ways in February, Kanye has been speaking out about his current relationship with his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian West.
However, if you’ve been following Kanye recently, you’ll know that the complete wipe of his Instagram page follows quite a turbulent few weeks for the artist.
“I went into a manic episode in 2016 and I was placed under heavy medication,” he explained. “Since then, I went on and off the medication which left me susceptible to other episodes, which my wife and family and fans have had to endure.”
