“Man idk what I’m doin but I know I need to make changes .. find my happiness , could this be phase one?” he wrote in the caption. Wale also signified that he might be leaving social media for a while. He said that Insecure creator and actress Issa Rae inspired this change in him. “I’ll be leaving you guys for a while.. my friend @issarae says it’s time to change up .. my man @renaldowilliams says it’s time..“
