Kanye cannot be managed and we’re not surprised (Picture: Getty)

Kanye West has continued his Twitter spree in all its glory as he confirmed today he had ditched his management team.

Today he took to the social media site to announce he ‘can’t be managed’ while saying he no longer has a manger – so, really, it all goes together in a neat little package.

Not exactly new to us, either, after it emerged yesterday he’d parted ways with co-manager Scooter Braun after nearly two years together.

Kanye, 40, said today: ‘I no longer have a manager. I can’t be managed.’

This perhaps isn’t all that surprising to us – Kanye seems like the guy that likes to do his own thing.



He then added: ‘I’m nobody’s “client”.’

Before he gave us the news straight from the Yeezy’s mouth.

‘Yes I got rid of my last lawyer why? Because he wouldn’t come to work full time,’ he said. ‘I also asked my last manager to come work full time for Yeezy of course the last lawyer and manager said no. So now I hired a CEO and a CFO and i have two full time lawyers as of now.’

Fans were keen to poke fun at the fact he’s married into the family that counts Kris Jenner as momager, though, as they referenced her presence in his life.

One said: ‘You fired Kris?’

Another said: ‘I have a feeling that Kris is behind this……’

According to TMZ, Kanye, 40, gave his team an ‘ultimatum’ that they work full-time for him – as he reportedly charges forward on making two new albums to be released in a few months – or not at all.

It was said Braun wasn’t able to work for the rapper full time, as he and a bunch of lawyers severed ties.

Kanye had also split with longtime manager Izvor ‘Izzy’ Zivkovic, who had worked with the rapper for nearly a decade.
