Kanye West Explains Why He Fired Manager Scooter Braun

by HHL JT

Friends are "very worried" about Kanye West's mental health after he's spent the last several days firing off scatter-shot and sometimes controversial tweets.

During his rampage, he also revealed to Ebro that he had been previously hospitalized for opioid addiction.

Amid all of that, Kanye has fired his manager, Scooter Braun. This comes a month after he fired his other manager, Izzy Zivkovic.

Braun, who's famous for steering Justin Bieber's career, had been with Ye since 2015. Sources say West told his management team that they would have to work for him full time or be fired. Braun, who has an interest in politics in addition to Bieber, didn't seem like he'd work as a 'Ye full-timer.

This is how West explained the split on Twitter.

I no longer have a manager. I can't be managed
