Creative Artist Agency or CAA, one of the major talent agencies in Hollywood, ditches Kanye West, who now goes by the name “Ye.” The company dropped him as the criticisms over his antisemitic comments continues to mount.
As per CNBC, this move comes after some other major companies also announced their decision to cut ties with the rapper and businessman. Balenciaga canceled its contract with Kanye West already, while Twitter and Instagram locked his social media accounts. JP Morgan Chase reportedly ended its ties with him too.
Many groups, such as the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), have also been calling for companies to follow suit and sever their business relationship with Ye. The International Legal Forum group, which represents over 4,000 lawyers and activists, also sent out letters to companies for the same reason.
“We call on you to end your silence, condemn Kanye’s obscene antisemitism and terminate your partnership with him,” part of the ILF’s letter reads.
In any case, a representative of CAA confirmed to CNBC that West is no longer a client of the company. MRC film studio also announced it would no longer release the finished documentary featuring Ye. It has shelved the film due to the hate speech and affirmed this decision through an official statement that was posted this week.
“After discussion with our filmmakers and distribution partners, we made the decision not to proceed with any distribution for our recently completed documentary about Kanye West,” MRC’s co-founders and co-chief executive officers, Asif Satchu and Modi Wiczyk and chief business officer, Scott Tenley, said in a statement. “We cannot support any content that amplifies his platform.”
They added that Kanye is a producer of music, and they noticed that last week he sampled and remixed a classical music piece that has been around for more than 3000 years. They pointed out that the tune was about a lie that Jews are evil who conspired to control the world for their own gain. MRC condemned this song's performance with a false and hateful message.
