Yeezy deal with Adidas under review after Kanye’s latest antics
Adidas has said it is reviewing its Yeezy partnership with American rapper Kanye West just days after he stirred up controversy with a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt design at Paris Fashion Week.
Though they didn’t directly mention the current Kanye controversy they did say “successful partnerships are rooted in mutual respect and shared values.”
Kanye responded on Instagram to the news, claiming Adidas “stole” his designs.
The BBC said Adidas has told them they’ve put the partnership under review after “repeated efforts to privately resolve the situation.”
Kanye has been ranting online since the Paris Fashion Week controversy, in which he has seen widespread condemnation from other celebrities.
