Kanye West, who has legally changed his name to Ye, will no longer be featured on HBO's conversation series "The Shop: Uninterrupted," the show host Maverick Carter announced.

West had already filmed an episode of the show earlier this week, but the episode will be scrapped due to the artist using "more hate speech and very ugly stereotypes," Carter said in a statement.

"Yesterday we taped an episode of The Shop with Kanye West. Kanye was booked weeks ago and, after talking to Kanye directly the day before we taped, I believed he was capable of a respectful discussion, and he was ready to address all his recent comments. Unfortunately, he used The Shop to reiterate more hate speech and extremely dangerous stereotypes," Carter said.

Carter is also chief executive of SpringHill Entertainment, which produces "The Shop." He typically hosts the show alongside basketball star Lebron James, who was not present during the taping of the latest episode.

West has been at the center of controversy for years. Instagram and Twitter restricted his accounts for posts they deemed anti-Semitic. Recently, West's partnership with Adidas has come under review, he called obesity promoters "demonic" and wore a "White Lives Matter" shirt at Paris Fashion Week.

West went on Fox News and discussed with host Tucker Carlson his decision to don the controversial shirt.

"The answer to why I wrote 'White Lives Matter' on a shirt is because they do," West said during the interview with Carlson.

Carter said he took "full responsibility for believing Kanye wanted a different conversation" and said that "hate speech should never have an audience."

Carter later apologized to the crew and guests of the show.
