American rapper Kanye West has shut down his Twitter and Instagram accounts.
However, it isn't the first time West has deleted his social media accounts without warning.
Ye, as he now prefers to be called, stayed off Twitter for nearly a year, making his return this past April, and recently went back to Instagram as well, reported The Hollywood Reporter.
The 'Gold Digger' star had come under fire for his support of United States President Donald Trump.
He recently delivered a pro-Trump speech on the premiere of the 44th season of 'Saturday Night Live'. Despite his speech not being aired, the 41-year-old received applauds from President Trump.
West gave the lengthy speech about his support of Trump wearing a Make America Great Again (MAGA) cap. He claimed that he was "bullied" by SNL producers backstage into not wearing MAGA gear on stage.
On the work front, he was expected to drop a new album 'Yandhi' last weekend, but it has not yet been released.
