Over the last few weeks, West has found himself under severe scrutiny for comments he\u2019s made toward the Jewish community \u2013 with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian labeling it as \u201chate speech.\u201d The Chicago-born rapper has received multiple bans from Twitter and Instagram over his posts, he\u2019s lost his Yeezy deal with Adidas, been dropped by his agency, and cut ties with Def Jam Records. While some users have campaigned for him to receive a permanent ban from Twitter, West\u2019s account is back active as of early November. And, as a result, he\u2019s using it to inform fans of a \u201ccleanse\u201d that he\u2019s going on. Kanye West goes viral with November sabbatical tweet On November 3, the 45-year-old stated that he is \u201cnot talking to nooobody for a month\u201d as he laid out his plans for the next 30 days. \u201cI\u2019m taking a 30-day cleanse. A verbal fast. No alcohol, no adult films, no intercourse. In God we praise, Amen,\u201d West posted. \u201cBut my Twitter still lit.\u201d The post took on a life of its own, racking up over 250,000 likes at the time of writing, as well as over 16,000 replies. While some fans were supportive of West\u2019s move, not everyone took it too seriously. \u201cThis basically just no nut November on steroids,\u201d said one, referring to the viral NNN trend. \u201cHello Mr. West, the caption technically means you WILL be talking to people,\u201d said another. \u201cNext time people stop talking to me cause I say some unhinged s**t I\u2019m also gonna call it a verbal fast,\u201d commented another. West has already posted 11 times since putting out his post about a cleanse, so his Twitter clearly isn\u2019t going anywhere \u2013 unless he gets banned again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
