The former chief operating officer of Yeezy told people to chill and not to judge him after he made anti-semitic comments. While he loves his former boss, Udi Avshalom is upset at the same time, according to a report. He called for people not to judge him as he would realize his mistake.
The Daily Mail published his comments.
West made antisemitic remarks on the social networking site. He said he wouldn't be antisemitic because black people are also Jews.
West has trusted Avshalom for a long time. Together, we made history. His brand was built by me. I am praying for good results. I hope he wakes up tomorrow in a better place and gets back to building culture.
Avshalom told Insider that he was not defending him at all. I don't see how this one person's opinion can ruin the progress we are trying to make as communities and as Americans. I don't defend any of his nonsense talks.
Following his offensive remarks, the rapper's partnerships with adidas, Gap and Balenciaga are no longer in existence.
Adidas is expected to take a 250 million euro hit to profits this year due to the end of its partnership with Yeezus. The German company that has collaborated with West has stopped doing so because it does not tolerate antisemitism. The company said it was immediately removing the brand from its stores. Racist and hate is not in line with the values of the store.
He said he lost $2 billion after making offensive comments.
