Kanye West has been released from hospital and is back at home with his family following reports of a nervous breakdown, according to TMZ. 

The US rapper reportedly checked out of UCLA Medical Centre with his wife and the same personal physician who made the 911 call last week.

West called off 22 dates of his US tour after being checked into hospital where he was allegedly treated for severe sleep deprivation.

The news follows reports that the hip hop artist was attempting to write new music during his one-week stay at the medical centre.
