Peace, y'all. It's your boy Jonny Fastlane here with AllHipHop.com

So, Adidas is gonna start selling Yeezy merch again. Let's talk hip hop
0:10
Aight, yo, this situation is crazy, right? Because it seems like Adidas has finally reached
0:14
the agreement to where they can start selling Yeezy merch again, right? I mean, y'all know the
0:20
whole situation, man. Adidas basically severed ties with Kanye West a few months ago when he was
0:24
going DEF CON 3 on Jewish people, right? A lot of people turned their back on Kanye, not just
0:29
Adidas, The Gap, Anna Wintour, a bunch of people. So, Adidas, they were forced to do it and they
0:34
were actually the last people to do it, right? They said that they're gonna lose a bunch of money
0:38
$1.7 billion with A-B dollars this year if they don't do something with all the Yeezy merch
0:46
right? As you guys know, they're being sued, Adidas, they're being sued right now by their
0:51
investors because they didn't let the investors know that their relationship with Kanye was going
0:55
south, right? So, anyway, the whole situation is that Adidas, they're really trying to figure out
0:59
how to sell this Yeezy merch because it's $400 million worth of merch just sitting there, right
1:05
So, what they decided to do was actually start selling it again, but they're going to donate
1:10
a lot of the money to Jewish organizations to fight anti-Semitism, right? So, the whole situation
1:18
is this, right? They already gave $1.3 million with an M dollars to the ADL, which is a Jewish
1:24
organization, right? They did that a couple months ago. So, now, they're coming back to the ADL and
1:29
saying, hey, man, we really want to sell this merch. Is it okay if we do that? You know, we did
1:33
give you $1.3 million and what they said was, okay, fine, you can go ahead and sell it, right
1:38
So, what that means is they're going to start selling the merch. Hopefully, they'll be able to make some profit off of that, but they are going to have to at least donate some money
1:47
back to other Jewish organizations as well, right? But I mean, at least they'll be able to
1:52
get some of the money back that they invested into this whole Kanye debacle, right? So, I mean
1:58
the whole situation is crazy and yeah, let me know what y'all think about this in the comments
