Kanye West is pissed with Adidas brass and he’s making sure everyone in the world knows it.<\/p>\n

If you just look at his Instagram account<\/span>it’s filled with dozens of posts going at Adidas CEO<\/a><\/span> Kasper Rorsted, Adidas Senior Vice President<\/span> Daniel Cherry Creative Director<\/span> Alasdair Willis, every single member of the Adidas supervisory board and essentially just about anyone with any ounce of influence at the company. These posts started just before Labor day weekend and have continued up until Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The Chicago rapper believes that he’s lost the power to make decisions about the direction of his Yeezy footwear brand and that many of these high-ranking officials are making choices without any of his input. He’s even accused the brand of stealing his designs<\/a><\/span> to use on Adidas footwear that’s not aligned with Yeezy footwear but still resembles his products.<\/p>\n

Now similar to how he felt about Nike in 2013, Mr. West wants out of his contract with Adidas even though he’s under contract until 2026, claiming Adidas is breaching his contract.<\/p>\n

despite some aimed at criticism at Kanye<\/span> for his long-running Instagram rant, others have come to the rapper’s defense, including fellow hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz.<\/p>\n

Believe Instagram post<\/span> shared on Monday night, Swizz posted a picture of bootleg Yeezy’s with a \u201cX\u201d through the middle. He wrote in the caption, \u201cI usually mind my business but this is DEAD WRONG! If we let them do this to @kanyewest it will happen to us also! This man created this groundbreaking innovation and it should be respected as a creative!\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cYE is only asking for his work to be respected and not stolen that’s not crazy to me !! We are not buying these !!!!!!!!!!!! @adidas<\/span> you’re supposed to be original do the correct thing please !!!<\/p>\n
