Rapper Kanye West has been dropped by his talent agency, 33&West, following a series of antisemitic rants he posted on social media.
The agency’s founder, Daniel McCartney, announced the decision on social media, stating, “Effective immediately, I’m no longer representing Ye (F/K/A Kanye West) due to his recent hateful and harmful remarks that myself not 33&West can stand for.”
The move follows West’s controversial social media posts, where he made offensive remarks about the Jewish community and expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler.
The posts sparked widespread backlash, leading to his termination from multiple business ventures.
In addition to his antisemitic remarks, West also made headlines for troubling comments about his wife, Bianca Censori. On the platform X (formerly Twitter), West stated that he held “dominion over” Censori, and added, “This ain’t no woke as feminist s—. She’s with a billionaire. Why would she listen to any of you dumb ass broke bitches?”
