More to the story than that. A manager is not going to drop a money maker unless bigger problems exist. The collaboration alone brought the manager money. Seems like more to the story like drugs or possible the artist had already fired the manager or the artist is out of control. Lots of artists do not want to promote because of personal issues and their managers are not dropping them. As a manager myself, you keep those kind of artists on your roster and try to motivate them. The only way I would drop an artist is if their life is so out of control it would affect my professional reputation in the near future.
