Kanye West has parted ways with star manager Scooter Braun. The news was broken by Billboard on Tuesday night. But was then confirmed by Kanye himself on Wednesday during a tweetstorm that touched on a number of different topics.

Speaking on splitting with Braun, his manager for two-and-a-half years, and other business moves, Kanye tweeted:

This confirms the report from Billboard that said Kanye wants all his business to be in-house, and that he asked Braun — who manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande — to work for him fulltime. (Braun naturally said no.)
Kanye then sent out a number of tweets focused on his Yeezy line and his partnership with adidas:
