Kanye West is making his way out of Los Angeles amid his recent drama.
After allegedly punching a fan in the wee hours of Thursday morning, Ye, 44, is heading to the California desert, according to TMZ.
While there he’ll do nothing but work, specifically on his upcoming Coachella set, which is slated for two back-to-back weekends in April.

Thursday morning’s incident is being investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department.

The confrontation happened outside of LA’s Soho Warehouse, a members-only club.
Witnesses told TMZ that the rapper struck the fan in the head and in the neck, and the person’s head met the ground with impact.
A clip shows West arguing with a woman believed to be his cousin, and at one point saying, ‘Did y’all say that or not? Did y’all say that or not? Cause that’s what happened right … now.’
In the clip he also told the woman to ‘get away from me,’ to which the woman responded, ‘I am your family.’
