Kanye West has stirred up controversy for many years, but his recent outburst on X is seen as crossing the line. This includes his former talent agent, Daniel McCartney from 33 & West, who announced he is stepping away, effective immediately. McCartney shared this decision on his Instagram Story, stating, “I am no longer representing YE (formerly Kanye West) due to his recent harmful and hateful comments that neither I nor 33 & West can support.” He ended the message with, “Peace and love to all❤️.”
Kanye's latest Twitter tirade included racist, misogynistic, and anti-Semitic statements that many found hard to bear, including his loyal fans. He made disturbing comments praising Hitler and made questionable remarks about Diddy. He also posted explicit content and directed hate toward various celebrities. This led to his account being disabled on Super Bowl Sunday, which even Elon Musk could not overlook.
The fallout for Kanye continues. A lawsuit has been filed by a former Yeezy employee of Jewish descent. The woman, identified only as Jane Doe, accused him of “discrimination, harassment, and retaliation” due to her gender and religion. She claims she was wrongfully fired last June after reporting his anti-Semitic and hateful remarks to her boss.
As a marketing specialist, she alleges she received offensive texts from Kanye, including “I Am A Nazi,” “Welcome to the first day of working for Hitler,” and “Shut the Fck Up Btch.” As of now, Kanye has not responded to the lawsuit or to being let go by his agent.
