For months he was everywhere, posting all his thoughts as his life collapsed. Now, a friend reveals why we haven’t heard from Kanye in a long time.
Kanye West’s friend Jason Lee has revealed why the Donda star really disappeared from social media and public life after his nasty fight with Kim Kardashian. The rapper made a series of public outbursts against his ex-wife in the middle of his divorce.
However, it all came to a halt after Kanye, 44, left Coachella in April and deleted all of her Instagram posts.
In an interview with Complex, Kanye’s personal friend and new head of media associations Jason Lee, 43, spoke of the rapper’s recent silence on social media.

“Ye is the only person who controls Ye,” he said of the enigmatic designer, hitmaker and protagonist of the Kardashian drama.
Referring to the plight of 41-year-old Kim, Jason says Kanye is now family-centered.
“She has made the decision to put him and his children first, for the first time.”
Billionaire Yeezy shares North, eight; Sant, sis; Chicago, four; and Psalm, of three, with its ex reality star.
However, Kanye recently broke his silence to announce a partnership with McDonald’s.
On the future of the Atlanta native, Jason said, “He has amazing people around him who advise and support his creative visions.”
However, the new media chief did not choose to defend Kanye’s past actions, saying: “It doesn’t make what he said in the past or what he has done is right.”
No more lovers
Kim filed for divorce in February 2021 after nearly seven years of marriage and a year of tumultuous ups and downs, including Kanye’s failed presidential campaign.
Since then, he has attacked his ex-wife through his music and social media posts.
Angry to see her move on, she has launched unpleasant attacks on Kim’s new boyfriend, Pete Davidson, 28.
Kanye left the set Saturday night live when Kim was the host, and was outraged as she kissed Pete in a scripted parody.
In an interview with Hollywood Unlocked, the outraged ex said, “How are you going to take me to SNL and then kiss the guy you’re in front of me with?”
Never “easy”
The father of four bought the $ 4.5 million house directly across the street from Kim’s $ 60 million mansion in LA.
He then released a new song called EASY who threatened her boyfriend.
The track was followed by two haunting music videos showing an animated character from him as a character who looked like Pete.
But the SNL star struggled and sent a text message to the bitter ex: “I have decided that I will not let him treat us like this anymore and I have just kept quiet.
“Shit grows.”
Meanwhile, Kim and Kanye are trying to navigate their new co-parenting relationship while he spends time in Tokyo with his new girlfriend Chaney Jones, 24.
The former couple has also been fighting over their eldest daughter North’s use of social media platforms, most notably for her presence on TikTok.
