Kanye West Leaks Alleged adidas Memo in Claims of Conspiracy
Kanye West has stirred controversy yet again, this time by leaking what he purports to be an internal adidas document, alleging a conspiracy against him by the sportswear giant.
In a now-deleted Instagram post on Thursday, Ye shared what he claimed was a memo from adidas instructing employees on how to handle inquiries from the press regarding the ongoing legal battle between West and the company. The memo allegedly advises employees to avoid prolonged discussions about the dispute and asserts adidas’ sole ownership of Yeezy shoe designs dating back to 2022.
Accompanying the leaked document, Kanye voiced his frustrations, accusing adidas of disregarding his input on various matters, including his children’s education and his name change, while lamenting the ostracization he has faced for his political views.
The rapper also shared screenshots of direct messages he sent to adidas Originals and other accounts, expressing his discontent and accusing adidas of theft and betrayal. Despite his outreach, it appears Ye received no response from the company.
Furthermore, Kanye reached out to sneaker blogs, urging them not to support adidas’ new 350 shoes and condemning the company’s alleged lawsuit against him as “rape.”
This recent move is part of West’s intensified campaign against adidas, as he continues to denounce the brand for releasing new versions of the 350 shoes without his involvement. He has called on supporters to boycott these products, emphasizing the lack of compensation for designs originating under his Yeezy brand.
In a passionate plea on Instagram, Kanye highlighted what he perceives as the public’s selective outrage and questioned the system’s response to his grievances, hinting at potential repercussions for his actions.
As the controversy unfolds, Kanye West’s ongoing feud with adidas underscores the complexities of celebrity partnerships and the power dynamics within the fashion industry.
