TMZ goes on to state that Kanye was reportedly being treated for severe sleep deprivation at the hospital when a member of the medical staff declared that he needed to be admitted. As of Monday evening, he is still ‘under observation.’
The incident comes after West ignited a Twitter storm on Thursday by saying he ‘would’ve voted for Donald Trump’ at a concert in Inglewood, California.
More recently, West cut his Saturday concert in Sacramento short after a handful of songs, but not before calling out Beyoncé and addressing Jay Z: ‘Call me, brah, you still ain’t call me. Jay Z, I know you got killers, please don’t send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man,’ he said. The latter show left fans so upset that Ticketmaster refunded their tickets.
