Was waiting for this to happen👏🏽
Wow! Is Kanye West getting canceled? Days after Balenciaga, Vogue and its EIC Anna Wintour severed ties with Ye, he is now being dropped by his talent agency CAA, Johnny Depp’s lawyer, and reportedly Def Jam. Ye’s Adidas partnership is also under review after his anti-Semitic and George Floyd comments online and on ‘Drink Champs.’
___________________________________________________
Early Monday (October 24), it was reported that Depp’s lawyer, Camille Vasquez is no longer representing Ye. Earlier this month, it was reported that the two were working together on Ye’s business deals and contracts. Additionally, on Monday it was also learned that earlier this month Hollywood talent agency CAA (Creative Artists Agency) also cut ties with Ye.

Hours later, it is being reported that Def Jam has severed its ties with Ye and his label G.O.O.D. Music. According to The New York Times, a source at Def Jam claims G.O.O.D. Music is no longer affiliated with the major label. They also say Ye’s contract as an artist expired back in 2021, after the release of ‘Donda.’ However, it is unclear if Ye and Def Jam were expected to extend their partnership prior to his inflammatory comments. , thoughts?
