Kanye West Bans Adidas and Nike at Donda


Allegations have been made against Kanye West’s Donda Academy by a former teacher, who claimed that the rapper prohibited the school from using Adidas and Nike.

Ye faces legal action for wrongful termination from two female employees, including Cecilia Hailey. She alleged that her departure was a result of her inquiries regarding the institution’s criteria.

In an interview with TMZ, Hailey alerted parents to subpar school conditions, including inadequate education standards and compromised children’s hygiene.

The student expressed dissatisfaction with their academic, social, and spiritual experience at Ye West’s school despite being grateful for the opportunity.

“And you need to back down and try again with people who know what they’re doing, who can execute a vision, who can help you understand that we don’t know anything about producing albums, but we know how to educate,” she emphasized.

The ex-educator claimed that parents might encounter difficulties in relocating their children to other institutions since Donda Academy does not assess students based on their academic performance.

Adidas is recovering from the West split, while Nike’s thriving success exacerbates the situation.

In 2023, Do It’s market share is predicted to increase following significant growth in third-quarter revenue. This growth is attributed to the shoemaker’s success, while the German sports giant experienced a loss of approximately $600 million in quarterly sales after ending its partnership with Ye.

According to Reuters, Jessica Ramirez, a senior analyst at Jane Hali and Associates, suggests that Nike has the potential to gain a larger market share than Adidas.

Adidas faces first annual operating loss in 30 years due to $527 million worth of unsold Yeezy stock by Kanye West.

After his anti-Semitic rants, the fashion mogul lost the nine-year partnership with the German sportswear maker.

The anticipated decline in annual revenue for the multi-billion company after the lodestar exit is estimated to be $1.27 billion this year.
