However, Kanye himself was the reason for this silence, as last year Kanye was suspended from social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram. This suspension was a follow-up to Kanye’s harsh and degraded comments about people belonging to the Jewish community.

Several multi-million brands like – TJ Maxx, Footlocker, GAP, CAA, Balenciaga, JP Morgan Chase, and others had endorsement deals with him, and post his polarizing behavior, had to terminate the business relationship. Out of these brands, the most impactful partnership was Adidas with Ye. Adidas’s Yeezy apparel line brought billions every year, with products like sneakers, slides, jackets, and shirts.
