Drake 'makes management decision'

Drake has reportedly parted ways with his managers in order to 'streamline' things.

The Canadian hip-hop star has a management team from his home country but also started working with other people as his career progressed.

Last week, he decided to cease contractual obligations with Kyambo Joshua, Gee Roberson, Al Branch and Bryant Cortez. They all work for management and production company Hip Hop Since 1978, which was started by Gee and Kyambo in New York City.

'[Drake] was getting pulled in too many different directions,' a source told New York Post. 'His team from Canada is trying to wrestle back control. He may go back to them to streamline things.'

It's also reported Drake has decided to work with new agents. He's said to have called time on his relationship with International Creative Management, and is moving in another direction.

Drake is now being represented by William Morris Endeavor, with an assistant there confirming the move.

The hip-hop star is now being looked after by Brent Smith, who also works with Snoop Dogg.

Drake's spokesperson hasn't commented on the report.

The star's second studio album Take Care was released earlier this month and debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart.
