Kanye West: I've gone to the Mountain top to make my new album

Just as predicted after getting off Social media, Kanye West is making a new album, and he's holed up in a Wyoming retreat at the top of a mountain to find his inspiration.

This explains Kanye's absence from some high-profile Kardashian events, including the Met Gala last week, where Kim went solo.

The last time we saw him on camera was during a Valentine's dinner date with Kim. He didn't even hit the stage at his own Yeezy fashion show. And, obviously, he hasn't performed since his hospitalization in November.

Yeezy's definitely trying to disconnect ... he's scrubbed his Instagram and Twitter profiles.

Multiple sources say this has nothing to do with problems at home or problems with his head ... it's all about creating music.
