Ye Deactivates Instagram After Name Frustrations
Kanye West's apparent decision to deactivate his Instagram account comes just a month after the 46-year-old rapper, now legally known as Ye, went on a public rant on the platform. In his outburst, he expressed frustration over people failing to address him by his new official name.
Despite legally changing his name with the approval of a Los Angeles judge back in October of last year, Ye felt aggrieved by those who continued to insist on using his old name. In a message reportedly sent to Justin LaBoy, Ye declared his intention to close his Kanye West Instagram account.
