American rapper and fashion designer Kanye West (45), who has been criticized for his anti-Semitic remarks, announced on the 25th that his partnership with German sporting goods giant Adidas was dissolved.

Kanye’s Yeezy brand, which has been a huge success with sneakers in collaboration with Adidas, will lose $1.5 billion (about 225 billion yen) in net worth due to the cancellation of the contract, Us Weekly reports. .

West’s net worth is estimated at $2 billion, according to Forbes magazine, but if he loses his contract with Adidas, his net worth will drop to an estimated $400 million.

Adidas is reportedly hit by up to €250 million ($367 million) in net profit this fiscal year.

At a fashion show in Paris earlier this month, West used the slogan “White Lives”, a slogan used by far-right groups in the United States to fight the “Black Lives Matter” movement.・He appeared wearing a T-shirt printed with “Matter (white lives matter)” and caused controversy.

After that, he was criticized for posting anti-Semitic claims and conspiracy theories on social media, and his Twitter and Instagram accounts were suspended.

“This is unacceptable, hateful and dangerous,” Adidas said in a statement. Adidas has announced that it will end production of collaboration products with Easy and will end the partnership with immediate effect.

West has already cut ties with French fashion brand Balenciaga.

A sixth attorney, who was handling his divorce case from his ex-wife, TV personality Kim Kardashian, has also reportedly stepped down from defending West for his dangerous statements.

So he is in trouble.

Doesn’t it feel like it’s finally coming to him
Rather, it’s true that this guy has often been overlooked until now.
If a white person says the same thing, will be cut in haste
He might rather have been overlooked because of his black discount
If I do something poorly to black people, even if I have legitimacy, I don’t know how society will ridicule me.

After all, it’s impossible to speak freely, even if it’s overseas.
It is correct that Japanese celebrities do not talk about religion and politics

Are you mistaking freedom for being selfish?
Freedom comes with responsibility
It is inconvenient that even words and actions are not allowed

Because Adidas is an all-around beauty

Athletes are for athletes, Yankees are for Yankees, it’s casual, and you can use it around town.

His partner will run away.
