Kanye West Dealt Major Blow As He’s Dropped By Talent Agency

Kanye West has been dealt a major blow following his recent antisemitic rant on X (formerly Twitter).

The rapper, who once courted controversy over targeting Jews with abusive statements, recently made a similar rant on the social media platform before logging off and deleting his account.

Now, the business mogul Kanye West has been dropped by his talent agency and has also had his Yeezy website shut down for selling Swastika merchandise.

For much of the previous week, West went on an antisemitic rant reminiscent of his 2022 tweets on X.

But just like before, the rapper was hit with a barrage of backlash, which has now been followed by new consequences.

As part of the repercussions, Daniel McCartney, who acts as the talent manager for the rapper, recently revealed that he and the talent agency 33&West were cutting ties with West over his actions.

“Effective immediately, I am no longer representing Ye (F/K/A Kanye West) due to his recent harmful and hateful remarks that myself nor 33 & West can stand for,” McCartney wrote on his Instagram Stories.

West has also lost his Yeezy website on Shopify after he put up a Swastika merch for sale.

The shirt was sold for $20 and was designed as a round neck with a Swastika symbol on the chest.

After taking down the site, the platform released a statement on Tuesday to explain their decision.

“All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform,” the company remarked.

They added. “This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms, so we removed them from Shopify.”

In the wake of the decisions, West is yet to respond, although he had earlier noted on his since deleted X account that he has no intention to apologize for his antisemitic tweets.

Over the course of several days, West wrote a number of offensive tweets that promoted Nazism and spoke badly of Jews.

In one tweet, he wrote, “I AM A NAZI,” and later topped it up with “I LOVE HITLER NOW WHAT B-TCHES.”

“I CAN SAY JEW AS MUCH AS I WANT I CAN SAY HITLER AS MUCH AS I WANT MATTER FACT I DO SAY IT WHEN I WANT,” the rapper said in another tweet.

He further targeted the demographic, saying, “JEWS ARE ARROGANT AND THINK THEY CAN SPEAK TO ANYONE THEY WANT ANY KIND OF WAY THATS WHY EVERY JEWISH WIFE IS A B-TCH.”

West also recently shared more explicit photos of his wife, Bianca Censori, who turned heads at the recent Grammys over her very explicit outfit.

Alongside the post, he described her see-through look as “HANDS DOWN THE BEST RED CARPET LOOK OF ALL TIME.”

Days before, he had commented that her red carpet appearance at the event “opened a whole new world” and heaped praise on his wife.

He wrote, “I keep staring at this photo like I was staring in admiration that night, Thinking, wow, I am so lucky to have a wife that is so smart, talented, brave, and hot.”

Actress Riley Mae Lewis, who stood close to West and Censori on the Grammys red carpet, has now suggested that the Australian model wasn’t “fully onboard” with the plans because she heard the couple “argue.”

“I thought they might’ve been arguing or something,” Lewis told The Sun. “She didn’t look like she was fully onboard with the scandal he wanted to create on the carpet.”

“The energy between the two seemed off, and a lot of people on the carpet thought the exact same thing,” she went on. “It makes me concerned for what their relationship is like behind the scenes.”

“Bianca did not look like she wanted to be there, and Kanye looked like he was loving the attention, knowing the publicity it would later bring him,” she added.

Lewis added that from what she saw, the duo’s red carpet stunt was “definitely planned.”
