“Allow me to provide a crystal-clear explanation of the situation at Adidas,” he stated in the video. “In addition to releasing unapproved counterfeit colorways, they are suing me for $250 million and failing to compensate me for these shoes bearing my nаme that they are distributing. In addition, they are raping an artist using contract clauses and fifty years of business experience. “One of your all-time favorite artists performing in broad daylight right in front of you.”
With a thumbs-up emoji and the message “Speak ya trutҺ,” Snoop Dogg expressed his support in the comment section of his post. After receiving more than 80,000 responses, the remark inspired West to capture a screenshot of it and convey his appreciation to the “Drop It Like It’s Hоt” singer.

He further stated, “Adidas is suing me for these colorways for which I never designed them and am not receiving payment.” “The general public and celebrities may oppose a T-shirt design or the color of my hat, but when you see me concealing my children or a real Fortune 500 company raping one of your heroes, do not remain silent or inactional.”
“With regard to the system, what are your current actions?” Remove my album once more. Re-freeze my accounts Threаten individuals with future non-collaboration “Cooorny are all the new unapproved 350s,” the rapper continued.
