Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West is a person who is steadfast in his pursuit of his goals. Ye was made fun of when he first declared his desire to work in fashion years ago. There were others who believed the odds were against him and that he could never succeed in that industry. Ye ultimately disproved everyone by delivering two wildly popular sneakers for Nike and going on to become a billion-dollar brand with Yeezy.

He believed that he wasn’t receiving enough royalties when he was with Nike. Additionally, he was very apparent that Nike wasn’t allowing him enough creative freedom. Ye left after the Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October” debut and eventually joined Adidas. Since then, Kanye has released a variety of distinctive sneakers that have been purchased by tens of millions of people all over the world.

On August 2nd, during Yeezy Day, Kanye’s irritation with Adidas became apparent for the first time. Although Kanye wasn’t very active on social media at the time, he felt belittled by Adidas’ yearly Yeezy sale.

‘Adidas came up with the idea for Yeezy Day without getting my approval, then they brought back older styles without getting my approval, chose colors and gave them names without getting my approval, hired people who worked for me without getting my approval, stole my colorways without getting my approval, stole my styles and material approaches without getting my approval, hired a gm of Yeezy without getting my approval, took production talent and scattered it throughout Adidas Originals without getting my approval’ he revealed to his followers.

Courtney Cox Responds After Kanye West Says “Friends” Isn’t Funny

Kanye found himself responding to a post exposing Kim Kardashian’s purported health difficulties in a post falsely linked to the Graduation rapper in the midst of his never-ending dispute with Adidas and Gap. In response to a photoshopped tweet that went viral and claimed that Ye deemed Friends unfunny, Ye labeled the post unfunny.

“I know you guys gonna be disappointed but I actually didn’t write the tweet that said ‘Friends wasn’t funny either’ but I wish I had,” he said. “I’d love to know who thought of that. I like to post comments,” he added before lauding comics like Larry David, Dave Chappelle, and Kevin Hart (in Jumanji)

It appears that Courtney Cox was made aware of the remarks since she responded to Ye in a video clip posted on Instagram. Before visiting Kanye’s Instagram page and finding his comments on Friends, Cox, who portrayed Monica, is seen dancing to the song “Heartless.” She finally decides to stop the music and go. “I bet the old Kayne thought Friends was funny,” Cox captioned the image while mispronouncing his name.

It’s unknown if any other Friends cast members heard about Kanye’s remarks. Regardless of what he thinks of the show, the cast still makes a respectable living via syndication till today.

Kanye West is still at battle with Adidas. The DONDA star has been attacking the streetwear company and its entire employees on Instagram for the past week for allegedly stealing designs from his Yeezy brand and profiting from it. 

On Saturday, September 3, Ye launched his most recent tirade against Adidas, focusing on Daniel Cherry III, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the company. ” VENTURE CAPITALISTS WHOSE ONLY ADVENTURE CAPITALISM. CANNOT CREATE SO THEY TRY TO OUT COUNT THE CREATIVES,” he stated. “I GUARANTEE YOU’LL HAVE TO RELOCATE BEFORE I’M LEGALLY FINISHED WITH YOU,” he continued. 

But the scathing tirade didn’t stop there. Kanye focused his verbal assault against the company on Tuesday (Sept. 6), saying, “I COULD HEAR THE JOY IN MY TEAMS VOICES TODAY. ADIDAS DON’T WANT NO MORE SMOKE. THE MOVIE CREDIT’S ARE ROLLING. THIS WAR WASN’T ABOUT MONEY.” 

The Grammy Award-winning artist ended his tirade with a warning for his upcoming victim. “Now it’s time for Gap,” he wrote, and then his team’s greeting, “Dear Ye, Your legal team advises that we wait another 10 days before posting anything on Gap.”

John Legend Discusses Why He Broke Up With Kanye West

John Legend and Kanye West are Long-time friends. They once worked together, most notably on the song “Blame Game” from Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Their relationship has soured as a result of recent disagreements. In a recent interview, Legend added additional detail to his previous remarks regarding his former friendship with Kanye, who he has been quite open about in private.

According to legend, their deteriorating relationship was a result of more than simply their opposing political views. The soul singer claimed that his conflicts with Kanye went beyond politics in an interview with the New Yorker published this past weekend.

Kanye backed Trump and then his own ticket in 2020, whereas John Legend was a staunch backer of Joe Biden. The “All of Me” singer admitted that while this didn’t improve their friendship, the political disagreements itself were the icing on the cake.

“I don’t feel like politics should be everything in your relationships, and your relationships with people shouldn’t only be determined by who they voted for,” Legend told the New Yorker. “But I do believe that certain things you believe in are indicators of your character, and obviously that will affect your friendships.”

He continued, “I don’t want to live a life where politics is the only factor that determines who can be my friend and who can’t. “”But values matter and character matters and moral compass matters.”

Legend continued by claiming that West viewed his decision not to back his own presidential candidacy as a betrayal. He added that if Ye wanted, he would be ready to keep their friendship intact.

Kanye West Defies Instagram Rules With New Posts

Since a few days ago, Kanye has been tearing up everyone from Kid Cudi to Daniel Cherry III in a barrage of posts on Instagram. He’s been listing some of his favorite new songs and some fresh fashion ideas when he’s not starting battles.

But during the past few hours, he has been picking battles. Kanye posted Instagram claiming rule violations for his posts of Adidas executives in his first of the most recent batch. “The adidas board requested that their post be removed on my page on Instagram and they departed Daniel Cherry,” Emerge there They were attempting to undermine the Pharrell initiative by utilizing this black man to try to oversea the Pharrell project my project along with other projects that I will not mention out of respect,” Ye wrote.

He then went on to repost each and every image that had been blocked, but this time with milder wording.

“God bless everyone Instagram please don’t take down this post I’m simply and kindly bringing light to the fact that Jing Ulrich is on the board of adidas and JP Morgan Chase:).” Jing Ulrich, managing director and vice chairman of JPMorgan Chase, is tagged in the caption.. “There’s nooooo reason this post should get flagged.”

He made similar remarks beneath the other pictures. “Another post from Mr. positive These images are on line Should be noooo reason to remove them from my page,” wrote the rapper under a picture of Thomas Rabe. “Great great people,” he captioned a photo of Kathrin Menges. The process of putting back up all the photos was clearly tedious for West, as he wrote under the second to last image, this time of Udo Mueller, “Ok just one more I’m tired but I’m not weary.” “Another post from Mr. positive These images are on line Should be noooo reason to remove them from my page,” wrote the rapper under a picture of Thomas Rabe. “Great great people,” he on a photo of Kathrin Menges.

On Saturday night, Kanye West continued his Instagram posting binge by tagging Adidas, Kid Cudi, Pete Davidson, and more. This week, West started raving on the social media site about a wide range of individuals. 

West started the weird posts by claiming to have just had a “good meeting” with Kim Kardashian.

“Hi guys I’m baaaaack,” West wrote late on Saturday. “Sorry to take so long to post Just had a good meeting with Kim about the schools But on another note I’m sure this pic gonna send adidas stock through the ceiling Your welcome Jing Ulrich who is on the board at adidas and JP Morgan So it makes sense now that when I wanted to sale JP Morgan went silent.”

West continued by pointing out that Tom Brady had responded to one of his earlier posts, saying that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ quarterback must “hate Skete” as well.

“Tom Brady in the comments it’s up,” West wrote. “He must hate Skete tooooo Leave him aloooooone Hi North I’m Skete Look at my Tattooooos I’m a pawn sent here to antagonize your dad in hopes that he’ll do something illegal so we can take him out of your life Of hi Saint Look at my tattoo I tatted your name on my body I also have a Kid Cudi tattoo but nobody knows who he is I was like He worked at the Bape store selling Daniel Cherry hats to tourist.”

Following their breakup, Davidson was rumored to have dated West’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, for a number of months, which is what started the conflict with West. Regarding Kid Cudi, it was his association with Davidson that got him into trouble.

West has targeted Daniel Cherry III, senior vice president and general manager of Adidas, in other jobs.

Young Thug Offers Kanye West 100 Acres Of Land "Free Of Charge"

Young Thug Offers Kanye West 100 Acres Of Land “Free Of Charge”

Young Thug desires to collaborate with Kanye West, even while he is incarcerated. We are already aware that Young Thug is facing significant federal charges after being identified in a Georgia-based RICO indictment. However, his supporters insist that YSL, or Young Stoner Life, is simply a record label that has been targeted because they are young Black professionals who are predominating in the music industry. The rapper has been accused of being the leader of a criminal gang operation known as YSL or Young Slime Life.

Thugger’s trial is scheduled to take place somewhere in the spring of 2023, and as he has repeatedly been granted bond, the only communication he has with the outside world is through his legal team and the rare social media post.

This week, he captured social media’s attention by tweeting Michael Phelps and enquiring as to whether the Olympic gold champion could swim 100 miles from the open sea to land. Given that Kanye West is once again attacking everyone online, Young Thug has returned with a message for the Donda icon. Phelps appeared to be fairly confident that he could succeed.

“@Kanyewest I got over 100 acres. However many you need they’re yours free of charge. On GOD,” a message on Thugger’s Story read. Ye posted what appeared to be a screenshot of a text message exchange with A$AP Bari. “We gotta get thug outta jail,” Bari stated. In response, West claimed that he had sent something to his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, who had been pursuing a legal career. “FREE YSL,” West captioned.

Kanye West Claims That He "[Deals] With addiction]" And Singles Out Kwanzaa And Kris Jenner

Kanye West Claims That He “[Deals] With addiction]” And Singles Out Kwanzaa And Kris Jenner

Kanye West Claims That He “[Deals] With addiction]” And Singles Out Kwanzaa And Kris Jenner

Kanye West has been expressing his complaints online, so it appears that we have entered a ranting season. West briefly left Instagram, but he has since come back with a vengeance, criticizing the Gap for allegedly ripping off his Yeezy design. He had some choice words for Sierra Canyon High School, so it doesn’t seem like his problems these days are limited to clothing.

West questioned why pupils were being taught about Kwanzaa, a holiday celebrated by Black people from December 26 to January 1 as he continued to lay out his intentions for Donda Academy. Every day has a different meaning, and participants are urged to produce or create gifts rather than buy them for loved ones to receive. Maulana Karenga, an activist, drew inspiration from African traditions and spiritual systems when he developed the commemoration holiday.

“They teach black kids Kwanzaa at Sierra Canyon,” a West-shared article read. “What the f*ck is Kwanzaa and who made that bullsh*t up Everyone lives in LA for the check anyway so no one really cares about their children being indoctrinated.”

A new post was made, “My kids going to Donda They not going to Sierra Canyon Charlemagne the God and Kris Get your motherf*cking popcorn.” It seems that he’s suggesting he’s going to create a stir that will cause Kris Jenner and The Breakfast Club host to tune in.

West further stated, “Don’t let Kris make you do playboy like she made Kyle and Kim do Hollywood is a giant brothel Pornography destroyed my family I deal with the addiction instagram promotes it Not gonna let it happen to Northy and Chicago.”

Kanye West Issues A Deadline To GAP Executives image

Kanye West Issues A Deadline To GAP Executives

Kanye West Issues A Deadline To GAP Executives

It appears that the relationship between Kanye West and GAP isn’t going well. Despite their tight collaboration, the retail behemoth and the hip-hop tycoon seem to be unwilling to let Ye be Ye. Last night, the rapper said on Instagram that GAP was having a meeting without him. He charged the GAP with copying Yeezy x Balenciaga designs this morning.

It appears like the GAP officials have finally begun to pay heed to Kanye West. The business entrepreneur uploaded a 6-minute video to Instagram in which he appears to be addressing the executives and arguing that the partnership “isn’t celebrity marketing.” He said, “This is a life mission.” In his protracted address, Kanye discusses his love of fashion and how he hopes to use it to change the world. He talked about his personal intention to open retail locations for his GAP line.

“You have to really give me the position to be Ye and do what I’m thinking or I’m going to have to do what I’m thinking somewhere else. Because if there’s one thing I learned from Virgil, if something’s killing you, it’s actually killing you,” he said. Kanye West then criticized GAP for canceling the blue jacket pre-orders and dubbed them “insane” for only showing an advertising once while experiencing a significant increase in sales.

“This is the moment. There will never be an opportunity with a guy like me that cares this much about specifically this brand and has done this until this point. We are like Tom Brady waking people up at 2 am during COVID but he went back and got that ring,” he added. “We are the football team. This is our football team. And I’m actually the Tom Brady because Demna charge $4000 for a shirt. I’m saying… how do we go Costco, how do we go Old Navy prices?”

Ye continued to describe his involvement in the factories before giving GAP a deadline. “This is bigger than us. We shouldn’t argue amongst ourselves. But I’m saying I have to go pull that sword out the stone,” he said. “You either believe me or I’m going to show you. I can either show you facing this way [back facing the executives] or facing this way [frontward],” he said.

Kanye West Criticizes Adidas For Yeezy Day

When Kanye West is angry, he has a reputation for speaking his thoughts. When anything doesn’t go his way, whether it be in music or design, Kanye makes sure his voice is heard. Kanye has never been afraid to criticize the companies he has worked for, including Nike, since he takes his business seriously when it comes to his footwear.

Adidas’ support has helped Kanye’s Yeezy brand succeed in the present, but it soon became clear that Kanye is not now content with the company. The company is reissuing a ton of famous Yeezy sneakers in honor of Yeezy Day today. According to a recent statement published by Sneaker News, Kanye disapproves of Yeezy Day and believes Adidas is operating behind his back.

Kanye continued by alleging that Adidas has been illegally stealing workers from his Yeezy brand and that the company stopped producing his shoes with Balenciaga. Kanye is obviously upset and is praying to God to take care of this matter.

According To Ye: “Adidas made up the Yeezy Day idea without my approval then went and brought back older styles without my approval picked colors and named them without my approval went and hired people that worked for me without my approval stole my colorways without my approval stole my styles and material approaches without my approval went and hired a gm of Yeezy without my approval took talent on the production side and sprinkled them throughout Adidas Originals without my approval.”
