Kanye West wanted to leave the executive board
In a bizarre business move KanyeWest showed a porn film to adidas executives who were shocked at a recent meeting. The fiveman meeting was filmed and included in a 30minute YouTube video titled “LAST WEEK,” which was uploaded to YouTube on Sunday. Fisheye lens images of the meeting are shownI’m Kanye West and two of its representatives sit with two Adidas executives on black benches arranged in a semicircle in an empty room. All faces were blurred except for the rapper. The meeting began with the artist holding his phone horizontally in front of the managers while a video played.
After a few seconds, one of the men asked, “Is this a porn movie?” about what west replied: “Yes”. “Jesus Christ,” one of them blurted out. Despite the discomfort, the Yeezy founder continued to hold the phone close to their faces. “C’mon man. C’mon,” one of the managers finally said as he pulled away the rapper’s arm and phone, indicating he was uncomfortable with the situation.
The porn film’s apparent purpose was to draw a parallel between its plot and the business of west with the sportswear company taking over the manufacturing and distribution of its multibillion dollar Yeezy brand. “I will only work with Adidas when he is CEO,” he said. KanyeWest, pointing to one of your team members. “You made a mistake with the company, with the business and with the partnership. The whole concept of this video is that the guy lied so the girl said ‘well then I’m going to do what’s your worst nightmare. This is your worst nightmare,” he said, looking directly at the executives. “Your worst nightmare isn’t me hitting you. Your worst nightmare is not me wearing this porn. Your worst nightmare isn’t me screaming. We did everything.”
He pointed to the man he wants as CEO and told them, “This is your worst nightmare.” He pointed to his other team member, adding, “And then worst nightmare #2.” Manager replied: “Is it your dream or is it a nightmare? What do we do?”

One of the contacts west replied: “What you are feeling right now is extreme discomfort and that’s the point, because if someone steals this man’s ideas, his creations, it’s like stealing a child. These are all children of his mind, and you kidnapped them. There are Yeezyinspired derivatives that generate significant revenue because people can’t tell the difference because they’re so inspired… He’s angry, and he’s right.” West intervened to confirm how angry he is.
The meeting continued, bringing up how Kanye recently ended his partnership with The Gap amid allegations that the retail giant failed to live up to its promises to open dedicated Yeezy Gap stores as planned. “We ended the relationship with The Gap and they knew they were wrong,” the man said. “You know you got it wrong, and having your mind say, ‘We can come to a place to take your order,’ that’s the starting point of the conversation.”
One of the executives agreed, admitting that he and his partner “certainly can do a lot better than we can [eles] work with [West e sua equipe]“. “It’s cool work. That’s cool work,” the rapper replied. Kanye ended by saying, “I want to make sure there’s a winwinwin situation here, and it starts with making someone feel very disrespected. And I think there are reasons for that.”
It was announced yesterday (11) that Kanye is dating the Brazilian model Juliana Nalu, the confirmed the advice of the model. The rapper and the Brazilian’s connection began earlier this year when West spotted her at a party, also in Los Angeles.
