So Kanye West is back in the news, but this time it's in regards to his partnership with adidas. The CEO Kasper Rorsted is upset about Ye's recent slavery comments, etc but doesn't believe it should affect their partnership. What are your thoughts? Should Kanye be dropped? Let us know!
“Last year, we did almost $25 billion, we’re a very large company,” Adidas CEO Kasper Rorsted said. “Kanye and the Yeezy is a very important part for our brand, from a revenue standpoint less though, but it’s a very important part of how we promote our products particularly in the U.S. and other parts of the world. At the same time, the brand Adidas grew last quarter in the U.S. 23 percent…So while Kanye is a very important part of the Adidas brand, Adidas is a large global company with a very, very strong presence around the world and will continue to perform well.”
