Kanye West declared that he would abstain from talking for a month.

"I'm taking a 30 days cleanse. A verbal fast. No alcohol. No adult films," wrote Kanye on Twitter.

"But my Twitter still lit," he added.

Kanye recently got back on the micro-blogging site. Due to recent anti-Semitic comments, the rapper was prohibited from tweeting earlier.

According to Page Six, Kanye's one-month-long "verbal fast" announcement came just a day after NBC's shocking revelation that claimed West had used anti-Semitic slurs at work for years and had paid off a worker to keep them quiet about the alleged racist behaviour.

As per Page Six, the NBC report cited that West reached a deal with an ex-employee who allegedly saw numerous instances of the Yeezy CEO praising the Nazis or Adolf Hitler during business meetings.

As per the news outlet, West has refuted the allegations stated in the settlement.

Celebrities including John Legend, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Howard Stern have publicly criticised West's controversial remarks.

In addition, West lost his billionaire status after brands like Adidas, Gap, Balenciaga, and Vogue severed connections with him due to his attacks on the Jewish community.

Page Six quoted a Forbes report according to which West's worth is USD 400 million after the Adidas partnership was terminated. The Yeezy deal accounted for USD1.5 billion of his net worth.
