Kanye West no longer has a talent agent.
Daniel McCartney wrote via Instagram Stories Monday that he does not represent the rapper anymore — “effective immediately.”
The 33&West employee explained that this decision was “due to [West’s] harmful and hateful remarks that [him]self nor 33 & West can stand for,” referencing the record producer’s antisemitic rant via X last week.
West declared himself a “Nazi” at the time and claimed to “love Hitler” in an all-caps, since-deleted tirade, which also included a tweet about having “dominion over” his wife, Bianca Censori.
On Tuesday, Shopify confirmed to Variety that West’s Yeezy website had been shut down over his swastika merch.
“All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform,” the company wrote Tuesday.

“This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms, so we removed them from Shopify,” the statement continued.
West’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The Grammy winner promoted his brand in a Super Bowl 2025 ad on Sunday, which he shot on his iPhone from a dentist’s chair.
“So what’s up, guys,” West said in the puzzling footage. “I spent, like, all the money for the commercial on these new teeth. So once again, I had to shoot it on the iPhone.
“Um… um… go to yeezy.com,” he concluded.
When shoppers visited the site, however, the only product available was a $20 white T-shirt with a black swastika across the front.
West’s social media meltdown was not his first, with the fashion designer previously getting axed from brand partnerships over antisemitic comments made in 2022.
He issued an apology the following year, writing, “I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions.”
However, West claimed last week that he “will never apologize” for his remarks — and even skipped President Trump’s inauguration because he didn’t want to express remorse again.
His scandal comes on the heels of him and Censori, 30, making headlines for a Grammys 2025 red carpet stunt in which she posed in a completely see-through dress.
