00:00 The chief of staff at Kanye West's company Yeezy resigned over concerns regarding the
00:05 company's decision to move into adult entertainment.
00:08 It seems Kanye West's troubles with Yeezy are far from over.
00:12 Rapper Kanye West, now known as Ye, founded his Yeezy clothing and shoe line in 2009 first
00:18 with Nike and then moved to Adidas in 2013.
00:22 Yeezy and West himself are no strangers to controversy, largely due to the number of
00:27 anti-Semitic remarks the rapper made back in October of 2022.
00:31 West was even hit with a lawsuit brought forward by a former Yeezy employee Trevor Phillips
00:35 in April of this year.
00:37 In the lawsuit, Phillips, who also worked at West's Donda Academy, accused the star
00:42 of multiple instances of racist and anti-Semitic behavior in the workplace.
00:47 Now just one month later, Yeezy continues to face complications as the chief of staff,
00:52 Milo Yiannopoulos, just resigned.
00:54 Yiannopoulos led Yeezy for nearly two years and stated the reason for his resignation
00:59 to be the company aiming to enter the adult entertainment industry.
01:03 The now former chief of staff shared with TMZ, "I wish Ye every success in the future.
01:08 I have some concerns about his new team and hope he proceeds with caution."
