Kanye West Has Been Dropped By Major Talent Agency CAA Due To His Antisemitic Comments

The backlash over his antisemitic comments continued as he was dropped by the major talent agency.

The latest business relationship to end as a result of the controversy is that of the rapper now known as Ye. The news was reported by the LA Times.

Variety reported on Monday that a completed documentary about Ye will be put on hold because of his antisemitic statements.

After discussion with our filmmakers and distribution partners, we decided not to proceed with any distribution for our recently completed documentary about Yeezus According to the memo, we can't support any content that increases his popularity. He is a producer and a musician. The lie that Jews are evil and want to control the world for their own gain has been around for over 3000 years.

Earlier this month, Ye wrote on social media that Diddy is controlled by Jewish people.

I can't be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew and you guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone who opposed your agenda," he said.

The account was taken down for violating the rules. The owner of Parler later said he was buying the company for an undisclosed amount.

Vice published Ye's full interview with Tucker Carlson, where he made more antisemitic remarks. Ye wore a "White Lives Matter" shirt at the fashion show.

The rapper and fashion mogul has been dropped by several companies. The Gap and Vogue were among the companies that cut ties with Ye last week. Pressure is growing for Adidas to do the same thing after West said that they couldn't drop him because he said antisemitic things. I can say what I want, but Adidas can't let me go. What's the next thing?

Adidas has not commented on the matter.
