Just as we'd grown to love Kanye West's Twitter rants, he's decided to quit social media.

The rapper appeared to have deactivated his Twitter and Instagram accounts on Saturday night, leaving his fans disappointed.

Kim Kardashian's hubby has come under fire recently after saying the 13th amendment of the US Constitution which banned slavery should be abolished during an appearance on TMZ.

He later backtracked on Twitter and wrote, "The 13th Amendment is slavery in disguise meaning it never ended."

He added, "not abolish but let’s amend the 13th Amendment."

He has also drawn constant criticism for his support of President Donald Trump and was met with boos when he appeared on Saturday Night Live last week wearing a cap that read 'Make America Great Again'.

He also unleashed a rant to the audience about his support for Trump and pledged to run for president in 2020.

The rapper is set to release his new album, Yandhi, on November 23, 2018.

Kanye was due to launch the album on September 29 to coincide with his appearance as a guest on Saturday Night Live, but opted to push the date back.

His wife Kim posted an update on Twitter, writing: “Nov 23 Black Friday YANDHI TRUST ME it is worth the wait”.

This isn't the first time Kanye - who recently announced he now wanted to be referred to as Ye on Twitter - has quit social media.

The star was absent from Twitter for a year, before emerging again on the site this April.

Kanye isn't the only celeb to ditch the sites though, as this weekend Robbie Williams revealed he has quit social media in a bid to distance himself from trolls.
