“Erratic” Kanye West has reportedly split from music manager Scooter Braun as he wants to go in a different musical direction.

The 40-year-old supposedly told his management team that they are to work with him exclusively or not at all, including long-time music manager Braun.

However, with a roster including Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber and Martin Garrix, it is reported that Braun told West this wasn’t an option.

The father-of-three’s decision was apparently sparked by his desire to “leave the traditional music business.”

According to Billboard, West is reportedly still has a record deal at Def Jam and a publishing deal at Sony/ATV.

The pair also have a reported number of deals between Braun’s SB Projects and West’s Yeezy, which are expected to continue.

Talent Manager Braun’s reported departure comes after West split with former manager Izvor "Izzy" Zivkovic, who had been on Team Kanye for nearly a decade.

The husband of Kim Kardashian is expected to release his new solo album June 1.

The news comes after he tweeted about “getting rid of everything.”

Kardashian jokingly chimed in on social media, questioning if that included her.

She said: “Wait...EVERYTHING?!?!?!”

A source speaking to PEOPLE told how the TV personality had been “trying to control the situation.”
