The chief of staff for Kanye West’s Yeezy brand, Milo Yiannopoulos, has officially resigned, according to a Wednesday report from TMZ.
The right-wing political commentator, 39, spoke to the outlet to confirm his break with the company.
He stated that he wished the 46-year-old rapper “much success in the future.”
The media figure also commented that he was leaving the company due to “concerns about [West’s] new team” and that he hoped the artist would “proceed with caution” in the future.
Yiannopoulous provided TMZ with a copy of his resignation letter, in which he wrote that he did not want to be involved in West’s new Yeezy Porn venture.
Yiannopoulos wrote that he could not be “complicit in the production and dissemination of pornographic films and literature for moral and religious reasons.”

The far-right figure later added that “such material and the type of people invariably involved in its production represent an imminent danger to my life as a recovering addict.”
Yiannopoulos went on to write that being involved in the creation of pornography would present “an unacceptable risk to my physical and spiritual life as a former homosexual.”
The political commentator then stated that he would “deliver an orderly delivery by May 31, 2024, or the first pornography filming, whichever comes first.”
He concluded by writing that it would be “an honor to serve [West] “again” as long as Yeezy “publicly and permanently abandons any plans to produce, distribute or profit from obscene content.”
Yiannopoulos previously worked with the rapper on his infamous and ultimately unsuccessful 2024 presidential campaign.
The politician claimed that he facilitated the meeting between West, former President Donald Trump and far-right figure Nick Fuentes, which took place in November 2022.
Multiple sources also spoke to TMZ and claimed that numerous Yeezy brass had left the company in recent weeks.
It was unclear whether West’s plans to launch a pornography studio were the reason for the alleged departures.

News of the rapper’s planned foray into adult films was first reported by TMZ last month, when it was revealed that she had been working with industry veteran and Stormy Daniels’ ex-husband, Mike Moz.
It was also reported that Yeezy’s porn studio could launch sometime this summer.
Moz later spoke with TMZ to confirm that he had begun talks with West about Yeezy’s entry into the world of adult film.
‘The idea that this project is going to be another porn studio is not correct. “It will be like nothing we have ever seen before,” she stated.
West’s ex-wife is Kim Kardashian and together they have four children
