Rapper Kanye West, better known as jackass after his VMA meltdown, is reportedly considering a trip to rehab to treat his problem with alcohol after finishing the ‘Fame Kills‘ tour with Lady GaGa in January 2010.

Kanye just can’t leave his old friend ‘Hennessy’ at home and that is making him lose control. A source reveals, the 32 year-old rapper started drinking after the tragic death of his mother with whom he had a really close relationship.

“Kanye doesn’t want to spend time in rehab but knows he needs help and is taking steps in the right direction,” the source added. “He’s been boozing heavily ever since his mother died following her tummy tuck operation a few years ago.”

We seriously hope Kanye gets the help he needs because it’s clear he is not himself at the moment. Kanye is currently dating the super bootylicious Amber Rose (photos here).
