Kanye West's Nervous Breakdown

Saint Pablo has been Cancelled

Kanye West has cancelled the rest of his Saint Pablo tour after having a breakdown on stage in Sacramento. West has also been becoming increasingly angry with artists such as Jay-Z and Beyoncé; spreading rumors that if he would've voted in the upcoming election, he would've voted for Donald Trump. Recently, he has been checked into the UCLA Medical Center after being handcuffed and hospitalized for having a nervous breakdown according to the Washington Post.

What we know as of right now, is that West is now being put on psychiatric hold and for now the tour is being cancelled with no site of it being post-poned to a later time. According To US Weekly writer Joyce Chen, she states that "West was sent into rehab due to sleep deprivation and being put under a lot of stress in light of recent events that have occurred".

All tickets that were purchased for the tour have been refunded, a few of those people do include my friend and I; both of us had been preparing to see him at the Palace of Auburn Hills this December. Am I really upset about all this? Frankly, I don't give a damn. It's pretty normal for West to pull some of this stuff off. I do understand that he is an artist and that it is sometimes hard for musicians to be working as hard as they do. But does anyone remember when he said "George Bush doesn't care about black people"? It seems like he will almost say anything just to get good publicity these days. I still do believe that even though he has said some crazy stuff over the years, there could be some sympathy for how hard he works.

Tours can become difficult and stars can become mentally fatigued, upset, and they just want some time for themselves. However, I also understand that most of the stress that West could be having could be from his mother dying. For those of you who don't know, his mother died November 10th, 2007, which makes this a very hard month for West and his family. In another article by HollywoodLife, reported that he has still not gotten over his mothers death from 8 years ago and that he still hasn't forgiven over what happened and technically blames it all on him. What we also know, is that his wife Kim Kardashian-West has been by his side this whole time, and it seems like he will have a speedy recovery.

But for now, I do have something to say. As much as I love Kanye West's music, and how much I respect him as an artist, I am very much getting sick of these antics that he has been pulling as of late and I wish they would stop. Right now, I don't know what to think of this whole situation, but I do hope for West to have a speedy recovery and then when he comes out of rehab, he becomes a better human being and a better artist from all of this. For now, the Saint Pablo tour has been cancelled which the fans of Kanye West will have to deal with, but at this moment, all we can do is give the family space and just hope that he gets out of rehab soon.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
