Nigerian music star, Davido has offered business advice to American rapper, Kanye West following his fallout and fight with Sportswear brand, Adidas.
It is no longer news that the brand parted ways with the then-billionaire rapper following his strings of Antisemitic statements in 2022. Despite parting ways with the superstar, Adidas has been selling off the remaining inventory of Yeezy.
On Monday, Kanye took to his Instagram page to call out the brand for selling a Yeezy design he never approved and leeching off his die-hard fans. He stated that Adidas didn’t give him any royalties for the sneakers they sold out last year and are still suing him for $250 million, yet were making fake Yeezys and selling them to his gullible fans and supporters.
“Anybody who loves Ye would not buy these fake Yeezys I never made these colorways I’m not getting paid off of them and Adidas is suing me. “All the new non-approved 350s are corny and everybody knows the 350 been corny.”
He posted a video to Instagram explaining his feud with Adidas, saying
“Not only are they putting out fake colorways that are non-approved, they’re suing me for $250 million and they’re also not paying me for these shoes that they’re putting out that have my name on it”.
In a follow-up post, Kanye penned an appreciation post to his fans and his colleague, Snoop Dogg for standing by him as he noted how their voices are being heard.
Taking to his comment section and his Instagram story, Davido offered him advice, admonishing him to work with Puma, another sneaker brand. Recall that Davido is currently the brand ambassador of Puma.
“Come to @puma Ye”.
We wonder if the American rapper would heed his advice.
A year back, fans of Davido were quite over the moon as the singer teased an album that featured American rapper, Kanye West’s choir group.
The American rapper, who is legally known as Ye became a Christian around 2019 and has been releasing gospel songs with his Sunday choir group, The Samples.
Davido took to his Instagram page to reveal the good news to his millions of fans who were ecstatic, and they took to his comment section to hail him.
