  • Just days ago, the rapper-cum-fashion entrepreneur Kanye West challenged Adidas to drop him following a weeks-long barrage of antisemitic remarks made on social media and in national media appearances.
    “I can say antisemitic s-- and Adidas cannot drop me,” said the rapper, who legally now goes by the name “Ye,” on the Drink Champs podcast earlier this month. Ye, who had worked with Adidas since 2013 on his Yeezy line of super-expensive, super-popular sneakers, thought he was untouchable. After all, Adidas gets an estimated 4% to 8% of its sales from Yeezy products, according to investment bank Cowen. For Ye, it was an even bigger deal, accounting for $1.5 billion of his net worth.
    Today-Tuesday, October 25-Adidas finally broke its silence and ended the relationship. That move will cost them big, but Ye even more, immediately knocking him out of the billionaire ranks.

      Adidas won’t lose much at al. There’s lots of other brands who do collaboration with Adidas. Yeezy always was a temporary fun for Adidas. Most of the people who buys Yeezys is those who don’t care about him, neither about his shoes. They just want to look fancy. If you really want to look fancy then buy trainers that is made in Germany. Yeezys never will be in a value because it’s all made in China.

    I'm stunned that he actually challenged Adidas to end their collaboration, like what did he think was going to happen? It was only a matter of time. I'm also not that surprised either considering how arrogant he can be, he probably truly believed that he was intouchable & that there are no consequences at this point in his career. You know how the saying goes "the bigger they are, the harder they fall." I hope he gets some help soon because that man is not well.

      Or maybe he knew exactly what he was doing and that’s the reason he wasn’t afraid to push his limits, maybe he has plans to start his own company. Kanye is already in the process of opening his own Yeezy stores. Yes he will no longer have the help of adidas from there partnership, but the Yeezy name along with his genius will always prevail.
