In truth, manufacturers left and proper are dropping their campaigns and enterprise agreements with the rapper as a result of his obvious incapability to shut his mouth. Balenciaga, Gap, and MRC have all lower ties with him and ceased new content material being launched as a result of his current ramblings (though some companies, such because the streaming big Netflix, appear to be a bit of uncertain the place they stand).
The 45-12 months-outdated’s companies have taken an enormous hit and his web price has plummeted amid the controversy — Adidas even introduced on Tuesday they’d be transferring ahead with the Yeezy model with out his picture or likeness! To try to make up for the lack of the model, although, the Donda musician had his personal concepts…
According to a supply for TMZ, Ye determined to go to Skechers HQ in Manhattan Beach to “talk Yeezy” with the footwear model early Wednesday morning. A consultant for the model advised the outlet:
