He was on Lexapro? Lexapro is for depression and anxiety, and some other random small-potato stuff.

I'm not a doctor, but rambling non-sensical diatribes are symptoms of worse things, like bipolar or schizophrenia. That takes completely different meds. More hardcore stuff.

I'm also not a doctor, but I have unknowingly been around people whom I later discovered had been rambling non-sensical diatribes due to usage of illegal substances.

Here are some signs and symptoms of cocaine addiction:

Mood symptoms:

Anxiety
Restlessness
Feelings of superiority
Euphoria
Panic
Irritation
Fearfulness

Behavioral symptoms:

Extremely talkative
Increased energy
Stealing or borrowing money
Erratic, bizarre behaviors
Violence
Abandonment of activities once enjoyed
Reckless and risky behaviors


Psychological symptoms:

Intense paranoia
Psychosis
Violent mood swings
Hallucination
Break from reality
Unable to exert good judgment
Rationalization of drug use
Lack of motivation

Does anyone with a background in healthcare think this could be the cause of his behavior and persona?

Kanye reminds me a lot of my friend who thinks he's smart but just says everything in general terms. I'd imagine it's a lot worse when you have an immense ego and a lot of money.

The Richard Pryor mention is funny, when you look at how Kanye went from berating George Bush to sucking Donald's teat after he got more money and power.

Kanye is way past the point he would get mad and rant about his reflection in the mirror for wearing the same outfit as him.

His gullible fans need to stop supporting him at this point or it's going to get worse.

So seriously what happens if Jay-Z does not call?

- Hov and B's secrets are leaked to the world
- Jay uses his sniper money and takes out Ye
- Trump (since he loves Kanye now) does some digging towards Jay and they arrest him
- The people back Jay against Trump
- Trump is taken down because Jay's too powerful with the people
- Jay runs in 2020 and wins
- We later find out that Ye did this so Hov could become the one because he himself knew he wasn't fit for it.

So Jay-Z as president.
 
This is literally describing Trump too. It didnt matter.

This seems a bit familiar, wonder where I heard this before this year.

Not to this extent. Trump is a bad speaker and has some funny mannerisms, but he can talk about important subjects like the economy in a way that people can understand. Kanye is like, "I ain't spoke the fake truth, bruh. They gunna be sending killas at my head but bruh, we all equal, man."

RIP MBDTF Kanye.
Nah, this is how Kanye has always been. You can even hear his delusions of grandeur on his debut. He's always chasing iconoclast status, and Trump just happens to be the hottest and most controversial thing right now, aka an iconoclast. So that's his new idol now.
 
It's hard to accept that you need professional help when you have millions of people kissing your ass. Kanye's ranting and ridiculousness is just sad at this point

He can say what he wants but fucking the fans over is making me lose some respect for him. If he truly needs help, I hope he gets it.

If what he was saying about Beyoncé saying she wouldn't perform at some video awards if she didn't win an award is pretty messed up if true .

If that's the case then why do live shows? I think he is completely misunderstanding what his fans want, which is the music and less of his BS.
Perhaps he is misreading his fans a bit, but I can honestly tell you as someone who has gone to every Kanye show and as a huge Ye fan, I left disappointed he didn't rant at the Vegas show. If you're about to plop down a chunk of cash for a Ye concert, shouldn't you know what to expect a little bit?

Man your posts are so Kanye sided it is crazy. I get you like him but come on now.

Not really, all I said was that I understand people want a refund and I agree they deserve one, but if the crowd hadn't turned on him after literally 5 minutes of his rant (People were cheering until they stopped and changed to booing.) ... after this insanely emotional reunion of Cudi/Ye ... Kanye clearly wanted to play the show, but if the crowd sucks and he wasn't vibing with them he doesn't have to put on a show he believes to have bad energy. He always offers refunds and reschedules when stuff like this happens anyway, he's really good to his fans.

Lol is this a joke post?

They told him to shut the fuck up because he wasn't doing his job (performing). People didn't pay real money out of their own pockets to hear him rant about feuds with celebrities and how Hillary lost and how he didn't vote or that Trump is great. He knew what he was doing. He showed up to a liberal town and gave them all the fucking finger by rubbing salt in a still fresh wound.

Then he gets pissed that they didn't like being totally mistreated by his bullshit/insulting comments.

Then he leaves. He's a disgusting piece of shit for doing this to his fans.

There is no defense for these actions.

When you go to see a Kanye West show, you should expect a rant. If you don't know that after all of these years of touring I'm not really sure what to tell you.

He wasn't even talking about the Trump and political stuff, he was more talking about the state of the music industry and Cudi, who he had just reunited with. It was a very emotional night. They crowd turned on him in an instant, I assume because of the Trump rant from the other day, but normally he resumes the show, and the shows with the rants are usually MUCH BETTER SHOWS.

Again. It's Kanye's bad for being a dick about it, but he's in his right to not perform a show which he believes to have poor energy, which in turn would end up being a bad show. He is a ego-driven person and does not perform something that is not up to par.

I'm gonna need someone to send their killers at his head.
You want Kanye to die, because he's in the middle of a public meltdown? What the fuck is wrong with you?

I'm trying to figure out how this guy's mind works. He starts a song and just thinks "wait, fuck radio. Rant time"
Maybe I can help. How would your mind be if your wife had the possibility of dying in an armed robbery with millions of people across the world expressing regret she DIDN'T die, your best friend & mentor not even bothering to stop by to help you cope with the situation rumored to be because his wife doesn't like your wife, and you made a speech that wasn't meant to "be inspirational" only to be ignored completely by the media for the by-line "Kanye <3 Trump" and get rightfully excoriated by them with your fans jumping in as well?

How would you feel?

He just doesn't have a filter.

Dude has been off for years and people joking saying he a genius and shit over the years hasn't helped either

Getting to the point that Ye stans won't be able to write this shit off, he's getting unbearable. Really needs to leave the spotlight and clean up a bit but his wife and her family ain't the type to slip away like that so.....yea

I didn't ask how he feels. I asked what causes someone to start a song and then just stop in the middle and spout off a bunch of fucking nonsense. You think this guy was sane before Kim's robbery?

I'm having trouble figuring out this sentence; wasn't mean to be inspirational... ignored by the media but rightfully excoriated by the media?

I think what he's saying is that almost everything else Kanye said went unnoticed outside of him being a Trump supporter, and he was torn apart by the media for it (as he should be)

I hope he cancels the rest of the tour. Dude broke down while hugging Cudi, he is not in a good place at all.

Lol, you can't be serious? Yeah sure, you might expect some dumb shit said at the end of the show. You don't expect it to be the main focus of the whole set. People didn't pay to hear him speak his mind and vent about his personal problems. They paid to hear his music preformed live. If you think that his "rants" are part of the experience then you're a bigger yeezy stan than I thought.
 
This sounds like he is actually a robot running a subroutine that creates a ticker composed of random lines from Neogaf threads and twitter feeds since the Election

Basically he's a living Futurama caricature of himself
