Shocking details about Kanye West’s practices during meetings with Adidas board members are to be revealed.

Adidas finally ended its relationship with West last year after facing huge criticism for working with him.

A blistering new report detailing Kanye West’s first meeting with Adidas has revealed allegations of anti-Semitic acts by the star, who endorsed the sports brand for years before finally cutting ties with him last year.
In his first meeting with Adidas, West reportedly drew a swastika to convey his frustration with the employee’s design. This was their first pitch to the West.
The New York Times the report reads, “Adidas employees, excited to get started, have arranged shoes and fabric swatches on a long table near a mood board studded with images. But nothing they showed that day at the company’s German headquarters captured the vision that Mr. West had shared.”
“To convey how offensive he found the design, he took a sketch of the shoe and took a marker to the toe. Then he drew a swastika,” he continued.
His alleged actions shocked the workers because they “met only a few miles from Nuremberg, where the leaders of the Third Reich were tried for crimes against humanity.”
The report underscored that West’s move was just the tip of the iceberg in what would become ten years of his constant anti-Semitic rhetoric during meetings and interactions with people working for Adidas.

In the scathing report, insiders revealed to the news outlet that West once “advised a Jewish Adidas manager to kiss a picture of Hitler every day.”
West also allegedly told Adidas employees how much he “admired” Hitler’s “propaganda order” and how he believed him to be a “master marketer.”
Despite his problematic behavior, Adidas has no plans to end its partnership with West because of how much profit it was making at the time.
In 2016, during contract negotiations, the company reportedly decided to increase West’s guaranteed annual salary. And even though they added a moral clause to the contract, Adidas only used it last year.
Adidas has since cut ties with the star after he made the bold statement that the company was severing their relationship. In 2022, during an interview, West said he could “say anti-Semitic s—,” and Adidas wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. Shortly after making this claim, the sports brand announced it would no longer work with West.
Some other brands cut ties with him, and, according to Forbesthe rapper’s net worth dropped from $1 billion to $400 million.
What Has Kanye West Done?

After His Very Controversial Year In 2022, West went under the radar for a while and resurfaced in January of this year with a wife, Bianca Censori.
Recent reports revealed that the couple got married in December last year, shortly after he finalized his divorce from his ex-wife, reality TV star and SKIMS founder, Kim Kardashian.
West and Censori have taken their love to Europe, where they have been seen vacationing and causing major scenes in Italy.
Censorship has mainly been slammed for her highly raunchy outfits which are usually made of tights and see-through pants. West, on the other hand, has been criticized for always covering his face, wearing all black, and walking barefoot.

Amidst their controversial stay in Italy, West and Censori took it one step further by appearing to perform lewd acts while riding a water taxi in Venice.
In photos and videos that have gone viral on the internet, West can be seen sitting on a boat with his back exposed while his wife Censori’s face is buried in his lap, with her hands on the back of his neck.
Their actions resulted in them being banned for life from using water taxis by the private company that owns the boat, Venezia Turismo Motoscafi.
Report by Daily Mail at the time also claimed that Italian police were investigating the couple for “public indecency.”
The rapper is allegedly working on a new music project as a follow-up to his last studio album. However, he recently faced some backlash in Italy after his concert was canceled due to protests by veterans over his history of anti-Semitic comments.
