YesJulz is currently embroiled in a public spat with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, after he was fired by the Chicago producer for allegedly violating an NDA agreement. YesJulz took to social media to share her side of the story along with sharing messages between her and YZY's Chief of Staff Milo Yiannopoulos.
YesJulz, real name Julieanna Goddard, took to Twitter to share her side of the story after Ye announced her firing via Instagram with a post that read: “We have decided that YesJulz will no longer be involved in the release of Vultures. All activity on her page and with our fans over the past few days was unauthorized.”
Adding to that, an email from Yiannopoulos announcing the firing and the issuance of a $7.7 million fine was leaked on X, formerly Twitter, which sparked a flurry of comments from the popular influencer.
This all seemingly came out of a Twitter Spaces conversation Ms. Goddard had with Ye fans, and she dropped some ideas that would work under the YZY banner and further the brand's reach. It seemed to be well received, but things have changed in the days since the chat.
In a tweet responding to a tweet that called her firing unfair but understandable considering the man behind the intellectual property, YesJulz made the first of many defenses of her actions.
From X:
You are against the system
Having the conversation with the fans
in an open forum the arrangement was unconventional,
but allowed inclusion
& open visibility
to pick up an entire fan base,
give feedback, listen, connect with each other to combine efforts
What I feel is needed
To keep Ye on top for these next two runs.
I was also given specific direction
to “gather” the followers, let them each lead their own chapter, activate in their locations – etc.
That was MY way of doing it.
I am not a conventional woman
And that's why I worked at the company I worked for in the first place.
I never wanted work done for free
I wanted to help the fans who were present
their work to Ye
To hire them
Instead of stale losers who don't know a thing about civilization
like Ben Priest & Milo Pedophilist
To build his company for him
Anyone who has ever interacted with me for even 5 minutes knows
The last thing I need you to steal
It's an idea.
I would actually pay to have less as the volume of ideas I have overwhelms me daily.
Check out my February tweets about recruiting fans
Listen to the space.
It's very clear who I am
and what I stand for.
Goddard then went on a leaking spree, sharing internal messages from Yiannopoulos, who had some nasty things to say. See the sequence of messages in the tweet below.
