Kanye's (Ye's) interview with Tucker Carlson was really impressive.
Actually a pretty insightful, interesting and succinct message that was spot on.

He DGAF what anybody thinks and calls out the hypocrisy and evils of Hollywood and the left.

Well worth a look/listen...

He doesn't need Addidas at this point. Kanye can go buy a shoe factory in somewhere like Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, or El Salvador or somewhere with the money he's made.

They didn’t care that he was on a nationally televised telethon fundraiser and said “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” and still signed him

He wants the factory to be in the US per some of his texts. I would think to give jobs to low income black families

Kanye was the one who wanted to kill the deal before this whole week's events

He's burning too many bridges in the industry, even for as much as yeezy is worth

“After repeated efforts to privately resolve the situation…partnership now under review”

So you are trying to force your partner to take some action and they won’t. Sounds very diplomatic

I don’t know anything about Yeezys except they are expensive. But I also gather they can charge more for these shoes because of their partner, who has pretty much made a living and lifestyle out of going against the grain, saying and doing outlandish things.

The hive mind is sapping all the fun and creativity out of this world.

Lol.

People buy those shoes because of Kanye, the brand is irrelevant.

Someone else will sign him up.

If words on a t-shirt are that upsetting to you, life must be so hard for you that you see doctors regularly and take lots of medication.

It’s ok to not agree with something. That’s cool. That’s called being an adult and having opinion.

But if that shirt cause you so much discomfort that you cry, get enraged, scream, throw things, etc. you are painfully week minded and insecure AF

But wait, we’ve been told ad nauseam that “BLM” doesn’t take away from the value of other lives, so how does WLM do that?

Adidas, after their “review” better uphold that.

I think it's more than they don't allow the black people they partner with to have their own opinions if those opinions are non-compliant with state orthodoxy and dogma. In other words: SHUT UP, SLAVE!

Is this about the White Lives Matter shirt or about Kanye saying he won’t let the Jews silence him?

Kanye knows exactly what he is doing....he is always looking for ways to promote his brand.
