AceShowbiz - Kanye West reignited his feud with Adidas at his "Vultures 2" listening party to Hainan, China. In a video taken from the Sunday, September 15 event, the Yeezy designer could be seen dissing the brand while on stage.
The said video featured the crowd chanting, "F**k Adidas!" Ye co-signed fans' sentiment as the rapper put up his middle finger.
He jokingly quipped, "I hope that was okay," seemingly referring to China's strict obscenity laws. Moving on, the Chicago star later hyped the crowd with his performance of his 2004 hit, "All Falls Down".
The Adidas diss wasn't the only thing that excited the crowd. At the event, Ye previewed a new track, titled "Preacher Man", from his upcoming project.
"Praying we get another Kanye gospel album," a fan wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, in response to the preview. "WE WON," another fan added. "Dong is days… very therapeutic," one other noted."
Another comment read, "Yes, we going to get Vultures 3 and then we are going to get the new solo project of Ye." Someone echoed the sentiment, saying, "He's really back man."
This wasn't the first time Ye dissed Adidas at a public event. Back in August, the former husband of Kim Kardashian started a "f**k Adidas" chant, encouraging the South Korean fans to blast his former business partners.
Ye also slammed Adidas, which cut ties with him back in 2022 over his anti-Semitic controversy, in social media posts. "F**k adidas and everybody who works there or with them. Anyone who goes to school with anyone who's parents work at adidas. Just know they tried to destroy me and here we are with the number 1 song in the world," so he wrote in March.
