Rolling Stone is known for its inaccurate reporting. Greater chance that this story is false.

Every household in America is on fire except mine welcome to hell S.O.B. 🖖

A story just came out about Adidas locking up his bank account and now they have some 'allegations' they're looking into. Funny how they saw nothing before his comments

And take it to the court of sportswear?

Ha, Adidas whom did a pedo child ad !?

Did they have a contract? What were the terms? Personally, I don’t care either way I’m just popping some popcorn!

Chris Brown, still not cancelled

Don’t mess with the Clintons!

Sounds like you guys are simping for addidas. They already broke the contract. None of this matters. Interesting that things like this is coming out now that he is launching his own brand

Ye should sue them for breach of contract.

Screw adidas !! I gave everything away into charity! Can’t support a company that is involved in PEDOPHILIA

They give you enough leash but if you get out of hand there is no end to their revenge.

So you write this story that he showed an adult pornographic images on an unverriied source, but you didnt cover a child holding their teddy bear dressed in bondage in an actual Balenciaga ad. Why?

They just noticed he's antisemitic ? Up there with CBSNews on speed of processing?

The whole situation is sick. We should hate people for speaking their mind.

It follows a Rolling Stone article published Tuesday with anonymous allegations that Ye showed pornographic and sexualized material to Yeezy staff during meetings and made sexualized remarks to female staff. CNBC has not independently verified the claims!!!!!!!! elonmusk

Oh what a coincidence. And had he complied, they would have been totally fine with whatever it that They accuse Him of. That’s how this repressive tolerance works.

want to see me without a bra?
