That is one of the latest tweets from Kanye West's Twitter account. Kanye fired longtime manager Scooter Braun amidst explosive reports he and his mother-in-law Kris Jenner are feuding like cats and dogs. Kanye has been tweeting erratically again and has reportedly cut off multiple people in his inner circle. It's not just Scooter Braun that was given the heave ho. He also fired his attorneys and has distanced himself from his closest friends. As Kanye said, he can't be managed. This has, of course, led to huge explosive blowup fights with Kris Jenner, his wife's mother and PR maven of all things KarJenner.
Is Kanye ok? The Kardashians are reportedly worried about Kanye. His behavior is all too reminiscent of that time in 2016 when he was hospitalized for exhaustion after going days without sleeping. Is there really cause to be concerned? Let's take a look into Kanye's increasingly worrisome tweets:
1. He announced five new albums on Twitter.
Kanye took to Twitter to announce that he would be dropping five new albums, despite firing his manager Scooter Braun. Braun and Kanye have been working together for a couple of years. Braun stepped up his role in managing Kanye in March, after nearly two years together.
2. His firing of Scooter Braun is just the latest shakeup.
Last month, Yeezy parted ways with his long time manager Izzy Zivkovic. Zivkovic had been a part of Kanye's management team for years. He was considered a close friend and confidant of the rapper. No reason was released for the change in status but at the time, it was widely assumed that Scooter Braun would take a bigger role in managing Kanye.
3. By the way, why did he fire Braun and his attorney?
Kanye Tweeted that he fired his manager and attorney because they would not come work for him full time. This suggests Kanye asked them to give up their other clients. Braun manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, among others.
There's no word on who Kanye's CEO, CFO, and two full time lawyers are as of now.
4. He thinks he's God.
No, for real. A source who spoke to People said that Kanye thinks he is a genius and God and can do everything on his own. The source went on to say that he's sleeping very little and exhausting those around him. Well, if he doesn't think he is God, he does hold himself in some highly esteemed company according to this Tweet:
5. Kris Jenner denies having a beef with her son-in-law.
Kris Jenner took to Twitter this morning to deny that she is having explosive blowouts with Kanye. "Lies, lies, lies" she called the reports that he cannot be handled.
6. Is Kanye having a breakdown?
Just this morning, Kanye tweeted out a number of statements that might suggest his mental health isn't as sharp as it could be right now. Kris Jenner says it isn't true.
7. Creative genius or exhausted parent?
A case could be made that Kanye is an artist and is not to be understood. Sure. A case could also be made that he is an exhausted parent. Kanye and his wife Kim Kardashian West are parents to a 4 1/2-year-old, a 2-year-old, and a 3-month-old infant. That's a lot to handle!
