SAN FRANCISCO (Diya TV) — It’s been a rough week for Kanye West.
From his political rants to cancelled concerts, West’s followers and fans aren’t exactly sure what to make of his most recent rhetoric and activities.
Monday, West cancelled the remainder of his 2016 tour dates, a tour which had dates scheduled through New Year’s Eve. “The remaining dates on the SAINT PABLO TOUR have been canceled,” according to a statement from Live Nation. “Tickets will be fully refunded at point of purchase.”
Monday’s announcement was just the latest in a strange series of events and bizarre behavior from the artist.
The controversy began Thursday during West’s concert in San Jose, Calif., when he declared that he hadn’t voted in this year’s presidential election, but if he had, he would have voted for Republican Donald Trump. West also offered his opinion about why he wishes black people would stop talking about racism.

Just a few days later and 90 miles up the road from the SAP Center in San Jose, West ended his show at Sacramento’s Golden One Center after performing just three songs. He also found time to rant about Hillary Clinton, Google, Facebook and the music couple of Jay Z and Beyonce.
The following night, his show in Los Angeles was cancelled.
On Sunday, West, who in September tweeted “I got rid of my phone so I can have air to create,” began posting unidentified fashion images on his Instagram account that appear to be from vintage Maison Margiela lookbooks.

But fellow rapper Talib Kweli tweeted some words of support for West.
