Kanye West publicly spat with Adidas over his controversial statements, but Jerry Lorenzo seems to be missing him.

Jerry Lorenzo Gets Honest About Kanye West’s Controversial Exit from Adidas

While Adidas had its own good reason for drifting from Kanye West, a few still
miss his absence. The Gold Digger singer became the expectation becoming the
first nonsports person to collaborate with a fashion sports brand successfully.
While being known as a rapper, the rapper interned for Fendi back in Rome with
their late friend Virgil Abloh.



He enjoyed his collaboration with Adidas, which made millions of dollars for him
and the company. The sports fashion brand recently decided to end its
partnership with the designer. Jerry Lorenzo, the Global Head of Adidas,
recently took to social media to say how he missed Ye and Abloh.


JERRY LORENZO OF ADIDAS WAS QUICK TO DELETE A POST THAT REVEALED HOW HE MISSES
KANYE WEST

Kanye West has definitely left big shoes to fill with his exit from Adidas. But
the brand’s global head seems to miss Ye. As per HipHopWired
[https://hiphopwired.com/1341437/jerry-lorenzo-adidas-without-kanye/], the
rapper took to social media and wrote, “YE… adi ain’t the same without you. miss
my dudes.” He also wrote how Paris Fashion Week is not the same without Virgil
Abloh. However, the post was quickly deleted after posting, but not before
garnering 20,000 likes and more than 200 comments. There is a good reason why he
could have deleted the post.



By deleting the post, he avoided seeming to agree with West’s views. Almost all
of Ye’s supporters in the industry distanced themselves from him after his
repeated anti-semitic comments. Instead of apologizing, he doubled down on his
views by praising Hitler for his success with the Nazi party.  The Donda singer
even made comments on Black Civil Rights activist Rosa Parks. He has enjoyed his
free speech, with everyone turning their head whenever the rapper made a
controversial comment. But being a German brand, Adidas could not overlook this.
