Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is no stranger to controversies. They have been following him for the majority of his career and framed almost every aspect of his public life. It may have worked out well when he had an album coming out; however, it is not going well for him in his day-to-day life, as he has lost so much. For some time now, he has been losing the members of his team.

Now, once again, a trusted member of the already thinning entourage has decided to part ways. And now, it looks like the rapper is left without any staff member he could trust.

In a story reported by The Daily Mail, it is said that Ye's long-time manager, John Monopoly, has parted ways with the rapper. “Everyone has gone. Either he’s fired them, or they have quit because of his behavior," said an unnamed source to the outlet. The insider pointed to two possible causes for Ye’s dwindling team: the rapper either dismissed his employees on a whim, or they walked away because of his "behavior".

This is a grave loss for Ye, as the news also reported that Monopoly, whom he has been working with since he was a teenager, is in Chicago and helped Ye big time in building up his singing career. Speaking about their bond to HipHopDX in 2004, Monopoly said that they used to be production partners and make beats together in high school. He acknowledged that he ultimately became Ye's manager.

Last year, Bianca Censori had headlines at Monopoly's birthday party with her controversial clothing, which also got media attention big time. And she too, is reportedly about to split from her husband.

After his separation from Kim Kardashian, Ye's second marriage to Bianca Censori has also been a matter of public scrutiny. According to Page Six, it might be possible that Censori, too, might leave her rapper husband soon, as she is “frightened” of him. Currently, Ye is in Japan trying to soothe his tensions, but it is reported that he was forcing Censori to stay at a LA-area hotel, but she stayed in another one.
