Kanye West is down a talent agent!
After days of MORE relentless antisemitic hate speech, people are finally standing up to the disgraced rapper… One of which includes his (now former) talent agent Daniel McCartney! On Monday, the businessman, who works for talent agency 33 & West, took to his Instagram Stories to announce that following Ye’s Nazi rant, he is no longer representing the rapper.
McCartney wrote:
“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.”

Thank GOODNESS! He concluded the announcement:
“Peace and love to all”

This update really isn’t too shocking…
After all, with the asinine and evil hate speech that Ye was spewing on X (Twitter) before his account was deactivated, it’s astonishing Daniel didn’t pull his support even sooner.
FWIW, it’s unclear exactly how long the two were in business together, but the agent was only hired at 33 & West in November of 2023.
This all comes off the tail end of the Can’t Tell Me Nothing rapper professing his love for Adolf Hitler, labeling himself a Nazi, defending accused sexual abuser Diddy, and attempting to sell swastika t-shirts on his Yeezy website… which was also shut down on Tuesday by Shopify. Regarding that move, the company told Variety in a statement:
“All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform. This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms, so we removed them from Shopify.”
It’s good to see organizations standing up to the depraved rapper. The question is, will more follow suit? On Monday night, Hilary Duff’s husband Matthew Koma launched a t-shirt of his own for sale, which simply reads, “F**k Ye.” And all the proceeds are going to Jewish nonprofit the Blue Card Holocaust Survivor charity.
We know Bianca Censori doesn’t condemn his behavior, but hopefully more others like Koma will. Thoughts??
