Seems like they be trying to hold him to something and he be shedding people left and right

 

March 29th

Kanye West and longtime manager Izvor "Izzy" Zivkovic are parting ways.

 

While it's uncertain why Kanye and Zivkovic have split, according to a March 28 report from Billboard, Scooter Braun will now be stepping up to take over all management roles. Braun was brought onto the Yeezy management team in 2016. Zivkovic has yet to comment on the split.

 

In related Kanye West news, The Life of Pablo rapper is currently in a legal battle with Chinese apparel Fujian Baby Network Techonlogy Co. after the company attempted to trademark the "Yeezy Boost" name. The apparel company filed paperwork to obtain the name on June 9, 2017, and now, Yeezy has fired back with paperwork of his own attempting to block the move.

 

Although Kanye has been using the Yeezy name since his days with Nike and the Air Yeezy sneaker and is now using it for his shoes with Adidas, the rapper failed to obtain a trademark for the name for use with his clothing line.

 

The news comes as Kanye gears up for the release of the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Butter sneaker. While an official release date has yet to be revealed, the shoe is reportedly set to drop in June. The Chicago rapper is also preparing for launch of his Yeezy Season 6 collection.

 

Kanye and wife Kim Kardashian have been previewing pieces of the collection on Instagram, using celebrities such as Jordyn Woods, Paris Hilton, Amina Blue and more to sport the pieces.

April 24th

Kanye West has parted ways with much of his management team, and our sources say he seems a little erratic.

 

We're told Kanye gave his team an ultimatum – work with him full-time or not at all. The various members of his team, including his lawyers and manager Scooter Braun, weren't up for playing ball. Scooter has a million irons in the fire and working for Kanye full-time is out of the question.

 

Kanye has said he wants to be bigger than Apple. Problem is … various people who have been interacting with him say he's hitting the guardrails. They're quick to point out he's not having the kind of meltdown he had in November 2016, but they say he's acting erratically.

 

We're told Kanye plans to do everything in-house – at least with respect to his music career. We're told he's still on good terms with Braun and they will continue doing business together. Scooter's company helped Kanye launch his super successful Adidas business.

To unlock America’s full potential, we need a welfare system of opportunity for the 21st century. The executive order signed by President Trump on Tuesday is a big step in the right direction.

 

Unlocking America’s full potential

By Secretary Ben Carson

The Washington Times

April 22, 2018

 

…

 

While America is now experiencing record low unemployment, our country still struggles from nearly record-high welfare enrollment.

 

Too many Americans remain on the sidelines of our economy. Today, a record 28 million able-bodied adults receive Medicaid, a 400 percent increase since 2000. More than 43 percent of all households receiving federal housing assistance are headed by an able-bodied adult. And in 2016, more than 16 million able-bodied adults received food stamps.

 

…

 

Too many of our neighbors are caught in a welfare system that perpetuates a cycle of poverty and breaks the American spirit of work, free enterprise and family. I often wonder what some of my childhood friends could have achieved if our welfare system promoted these fundamental keys to escaping poverty. What new inventions, policy ideas, medical advances, and discoveries never happen because too many languish in poverty?

 

…

 

To unlock America’s full potential, we need a welfare system of opportunity for the 21st century. The executive order signed by President Trump on Tuesday is a big step in the right direction.

 

Our welfare system should be a pathway to self-sufficiency by focusing on work and stable families, giving hope to their dreams and a foundation for their success. We need a dynamic and innovative welfare system for today’s dynamic economy.

 

Furthermore, we need a welfare system that is data-driven and measures outcomes, not just participation. If we cannot measure the true impact of our programs on their participants, we will only perpetuate the cycle of poverty.
