Kanye West has apparently had a bad history with his employees. The Donda singer is already in the midst of controversies due to his anti-Semitic remarks and comments on black civil rights activists like Rosa Parks. It even led to the ending of his partnership with Adidas and other luxury brands.

Recently it was revealed how the artist had misbehaved with an Adidas employee, making her sit on the floor. But while that is being investigated, what is the experience like working for him round the clock? His former bodyguard Steve Staniulis is set to expose it all in an upcoming documentary. He gave a sneak peek of it from the two weeks that he worked for Ye.

He knew that people would not see the entertainer in a negative light, but added, “Everybody knows now the type of person his personality is; I was just the first one who knew back in 2016.” Previously, the former bodyguard revealed how West and Kim Kardashian shared an unaffectionate marriage even before their divorce.

The documentary began its production back in 2022, but it is unsure when it will be released. Staniulis previously gave an interview about his experience and was threatened by Ye with a lawsuit of over $60 million. West claimed that all employees, including the bodyguard, had signed a non-disclosure agreement, but the former bodyguard denied signing any such paper.
