FRANKFURT, GERMANY - The head of Adidas has apologised after speculating that Kanye West did not "mean what he said" with anti-Semitic remarks that put an end to his collaboration with the German sportswear brand.
West -- now formally known as Ye -- had made "some statements, which wasn't that good", Gulden told the podcast. Gulden had "apologised for his misstatement", the head of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt, said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter. Since parting ways with Ye, Adidas has been selling off its stock of highly sought-after Yeezy-branded items, the fruit of its collaboration with the rapper.
