Kanye West Twitter: Rapper unleashes on wife and mother-in-law again

Rapper and presidential candidate Kanye West has again unleashed on his wife and her family in a series of nonsensical tweets, 24 hours after causing concern among fans for his mental health.Among a slew of claims, he seemingly revealed he has tried to file for divorce from Kim Kardashian West, while reiterating that the Kardashians have attempted to have him hospitalised in recent days.
He also made mention of rappers Meek Mill and Drake, who have been at the centre of unsubstantiated Kim Kardashian cheating rumours over the years.
The tweets have since been removed from his page.

Yesterday, Kanye tweeted then deleted a number of claims that his family “tried to lock him up” following a rambling presidential campaign rally in South Carolina in which he cried while saying that he and Kim had once contemplated aborting their 7-year-old daughter North West.
West, who announced earlier this month that he was running for president, deleted almost all of the tweets — leaving up the one promoting his upcoming album, DONDA, tweeting “Ima focus on the music now.”
Among the many posts today, the rapper and father-of-four, 43, claimed Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian-West “put out a statement without my approval”, writing “White supremacy” and claiming in a further tweet that he has been “trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek (Mill) at the (Waldorf) for ‘prison reform’”.
The reality star has been campaigning for prison reform since 2018, having met with US President Donald Trump in April this year to discuss “changes to the justice system”.
Rapper Meek Mill, who Kanye was seemingly referring to in his tweets today, has praised Kardashian West for her work in the past.
In the same tweet, he referred to “Kris Jong-Un” and the rapper Lil Baby, and in another, he lashed out at Kris Jenner again, writing: “I will live for my children Kris I’m in Cody if your not planning another one of your children’s playboy shoots (sic)”.
He also made several references to “MJ”.
In another alarming message written in capital letters, he referenced the devil and asserted he would “never be exploited by the system of white supremacy.”
Less than 20 minutes after they were posted, he removed them all.
The illiterate updates were similar to his outburst yesterday, in which he addressed his wife and mother-in-law directly, writing: “Kris and Kim, call me now” before posting a screenshot of a text message to Jenner, in which he accused her of “avoiding” his calls.
In separate tweets, Kanye also compared his life to the movie Get Out — a movie about an African-American man who is brought to his white girlfriend’s family home and uncovers a series of disturbing details about them — and called out Jenner for her handling of his wife’s sex tape and Playboy shoot.
In a tweet unrelated to his wife and family, he wrote “NBC locked up Bill Cosby”, seemingly in support of the convicted sex offender.
Kanye has in the past opened up about his struggles with bipolar disorder, but his recent erratic behaviour has again called into question his health and treatment.
More to come.
