Wale hints depression
However, this is not the first time that Wale has hinted that he might be falling into depression. In 2018, he tweeted that he is in pains and can’t deal any more with people who just want to take photos with him without caring about his well being.
“The people i “vent” to just “damn man” me to death. I can’t go to the airport without getting faded cuz tbh I’m tired of taking photos with pple who don’t care about nothin but gettin a few extra likes for meeting a “famous” person every year that passes the lonelier it gets.
“I can’t explain this pain. Sometimes there is absolutely NOBODY to go to. NO matter how much they love you. You have no one. NO one is more alone than the person that’s the focal point,” he had tweeted.
He had also tweeted in 2018 that being dark skinned has hurt his career. After the buzz of his colorism accusations hit Twitter some people agreed while others felt the rapper was being whiny and salty that his music was not as catchy as the other rappers he appeared to reference.
