All Nike gotta do is make the right kind of running shoe with the invincible zoom x bottom and they’ll rock the game up

Lol @ Ye saving Adidas and Gap. Those are worldwide billion dollar brands. They didn’t NEED him. He didn’t need them either but he wanted to be apart of something established because he can’t seem to establish his own shyt like Virgil did.

We’re only hearing his side now, but I know his main problem with brands is that his constantly skipping seasons because he’s too insecure in his vision.

I'm talking about GAP which is worth $3.2 billion, Yeezy probably added a $1 billion to that but he wanted to come in like he was the future and guru for an already established company

What he really desires is power which is why he is always falling out with these companies


I know you’re talking about GAP. And I’m saying based of his success with adidas, gap should’ve been willing to give Ye free reign and treat him like a partner

Yeezys make up more than half of adidas shoe sales. If he didn’t save them he elevated them greatly. Adidas wasn’t competing with Nike in recent times until yeezy


And Virgil is Yes son

Made up ass dumb shyt :mjlol:

Hes not wrong, Adidas merch doesnt move like that (Ultraboosts had their moment and still do push some units) but Yeezy launches will create hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales and demand revenue in a single day.

I'm the biggest idiot on the coli. I put $200 on Robinhood last year. It was $26 at 1 point. Now its worth less then $9 because I thought he would turn it around like addias
the designers that got poached from nike turned Adidas around but even adidas couldn't sustain that momentum

the gap yeezy designs were super ass. not only that he was not delivering a lot like when he went to adidas. how many products have they dropped?

this man will always be unhinged and unpredictable. not the guy you want to invest with because it really is a gamble.

You sure about that as Gap has been struggling for years now. COVID threw them that lifeline when they were using clothing material to help make masks, but now it’s back to reality. Even Adidas has been struggling as well and Yeezy is their most notable product that’s helping to move units.

He’s a better businessman than people give him credit for.

That said, I know people with bipolar disorder and similar issues. Watching him go from beef to beef with his loved ones, friends, and business ventures makes me think he’s not following a treatment plan.

I hope he finds some peace.

Why doesn’t he just open up a Yeezy storefront in every major city?
