Kanye West has been creating news day in and day out for the past few weeks now. The Grammy Music award-winning artist who is known for giving out chart-topping albums has currently been locked out of social media. Ye’s downward spiral has been a long time in the making. The seeds of Ye’s current downward spiral were sown back in 2021 when Kim Kardashian filed for a divorce.

At the start of the year, Pete Davidson was at the receiving end of the No Child Left Behind rapper’s trolls. However, Ye put an end to his rants against Pete Davidson with a classic ”Skete Davidson” post. After controversial fashion show statements and Nazist tweets, Ye is neck deep into what could be the worst controversy of his career. Amid business partners walking out, Kanye West has been spotted with a new girlfriend on his side.
