Wale isn't happy, so to fix that he's cutting off his dreadlocks and quitting social media.
He also sent this tweet, which makes it seem like he's going through something heavy at the moment:
The ability to feel for everyone is my super power The ability to feel for everyone is my kryptonite
Compassion is my ally and my nemesis — Wale (@Wale) July 23, 2017
If you've been following Wale's career, then you know he's talked about being depressed before. In fact, Meek Mill called him out for it back in 2015. In addition, Wale's last album 'Shine' suffered from low sales numbers, so it's possible that he was affected by that too.
Why do you think he seems so depressed?
