Adidas has severed ties with extremist rapper Kanye West after his recently run of insane racist remarks.
West, the most despicable rapper since R. Kelly, was given the arse by Adidas with the company issuing a statement saying it will “not tolerate antisemitism and any other sort of hate speech”.
West has been spewing anti-Semitic comments leading to a ban by both Facebook and Twitter.
Adidas advised, “Ye’s recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company’s values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness.”
The cancellation of the contact is expected to be worth around $250 million to West.
Adidas have removed all West products effective immediately.
