It comes out Kanye West and Candace Owens didn’t just decide to wear their White Lives Matter shirts on a whim — both had been planning it for weeks — some of Kanye’s former friends told us that she serves as his top advisor in his day-to-day life.

Sources close to Kanye tell us … Candice has been reaching out to people on Kanye’s behalf, arranging calls, meetings and appearances.
We’re told by people who were close to Kanye (many of them distanced themselves after his recent attacks) thinks he’s in a bad mental state and anyone who tries to convince him to do anything but help doesn’t have his best interests at heart.
Moreover … Ye appeared at the premiere of the movie Candice in Nashville on Wednesday. Ray J was also in attendance, union sources told us, which Owens coordinated despite Kim Kardashian.
Our sources say it’s unclear if Candice is getting paid by E as an adviser, but one source says, “Anyone who takes money from him is taking advantage of him.” As for Candice’s involvement in Kanye’s life, the same source said, “She’s going to run him into the ground.”
Earlier this week, Candice released an old voicemail message from Kim Kardashian to Ray J which Kim called Whitney Houston — who Ray was dating at the time — “The Old Witch.”
Our Kanye sources say they believe Candice released the VM to show her loyalty to Kanye, especially regarding Kim, who Kanye accused of “kidnapping” the couple’s children.
One of the reasons Kanye’s former allies believe Candice has his ear… until recently he’s been amicable with Kim, seeming to agree that she’ll have kids about 80% of the time, and he’ll be constantly involved in their lives.

As for his recent statements, a source tells us, “Kanye can’t get out of his goddamn path, which is the root of every personal and professional problem.” The question is…does he get advice?
We reached out to Candice … so far we haven’t heard back.
