CNN and the Los Angeles Times said West left the UCLA Medical
Center. People magazine quoted an unidentified source as saying
West was "home, getting some rest."
Representatives for West could not immediately be reached by
Reuters for comment on West's health status or hospital release.
A spokeswoman for West's wife, reality TV star Kim Kardashian,
said in an email there were no updates and referred queries to
West's representatives.
The "Jesus Walks" rapper, 39, was taken to the Resnick
Neuropsychiatric Hospital at the University of California, Los
Angeles, last week after police responded to a call for help,
several media outlets reported.
Sources close to the rapper told People he was exhausted from a
"spiritual crisis."
West's hospitalization followed a series of public rants and the
cancellation of the rest of his concert tour.
It came after a demanding couple of months for the rapper and
his wife after she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris, forcing the
family to reassess its security and public profile.
Kardashian, according to reports, has been by West's bedside
during his hospitalization. Her E! Network reality show,
"Keeping Up with the Kardashians," is "currently in production
and has not been halted," a network representative said in a
statement.
