What pair of Yeezy's were $800.00? You used that figure to support a claim you could not prove absent gross exaggeration. They should care because they chose Ye for his influence in a particular community. This is not different that using Britney Spears. The only difference is that people who look like her are most likely already in position of wealth and influence. Microsoft made headlines in January 2019 for investing $500 million into affordable housing in the Seattle area, which is home to both Microsoft and Amazon to address the inequality that has spread in communities where the industry is concentrated. Seattle is smaller that 13% of the population. Google (parent company, Alphabet) pledged to invest $1 billion in land and money to build homes in the San Francisco area (also less than 13%).

Hmmm I'm seeing a lot of black folks (allegedly, since we don't really know) say stuff "Adidas don't owe black people anything." But what do we hear every single day on PBS? "this program was funded from viewers like you. AND contributions from the CHUBB group." Who the hell is the chubb group? Well, it's just TINY representations of what companies do to get tax write-offs by making "charitable contributions." How do you think building after building after building are bought at colleges and universities? Or the holocaust museums? And political PACS are funding? COMPANIES make CONTRIBUTIONS to causes and SPECIFIC communities when they want to support. So, yes companies can and DO direct funds when they want to. I don't how many Afro-Sheen commercials I saw and then at the end a comment about the Urban League and "the mind being a terrible thing to waste." And they get the tax write-off. And companies LOVE tax write-offs. And one thing I do know. You don't GET nothing if you don't ASK for nothing. So, I'm with Jason on this. If even HALF of that 3 billion came from black feet wearing those shoes, yeah, then you need to kick a few dollars in. Don't come around here with your empty cup talking about "let me get a sip."

The pick yourself up by the boot straps mantra is disingenuous when one considers that other communities benefited from centuries of policy that put them in positions of power. Artists do not have that money in cash. It requires them to sell their assets which reverts power to other communities. That would mean that from the time of sale the cash flow starts to dwindle. That isn't sustainable.

I mean it'd be admirable if big companies set aside revenues to help communities in positive and meaningful ways, but in any realistic context, there should be absolutely zero expectation from them to do that whether that's being pragmatic, cynical, or anything else. Corporations only exist as entities to generate the most profits possible, period, and that's quite literal. I feel like people latch onto brands like they mean anything other than marketable avenues to scrape those profits.

People are so gullible. Ye never owned those shoes. Adidas didn’t owe the hood anything. Ya’ll got lied to by ye and people try to make something it never was. Adidas have always owned the patent to those shoes. Ye never owned them….all he did was license his name to them. A name Beanie Sigel created. At no time was he ever an owner. He was nothing more than an over glorified brand ambassador. Adidas was adidas before him & stayed adidas after him. Learn how business actually vs. how you think it works. He was never an owner & adidas showed that by having the power to remove him. Wake up.

This is an ignorant statement. If I opened a spanish restaurant and used Bad Bunny and his music to market it, hispanics are going to show up. That would be indicative of a community as opposed to the inverse.

They did invest into the black community, Kanye is black right? But no one is asking why didn't Kanye reinvest into his own community. These customers will pay premium for any foreign goods but won't spend any money in their community or hold celebs accountable. Perpetual victim and entitled mentality. I don't see anyone asking fast food chains to reinvest in communities or Jordan for that matter. Having an Adidas or Gap store in your community IS reinvesting in it. They are literally employing people from the community SMH.

For yall saying Adidas doesnt owe anything you're sadly mistaken. Brands align themselves with their investors and consumers and they always have. Same reason Louis Vuitton is catering to cartel members with their new cowboy line. And when Virgil was around they catered to street wear. Now this doesnt mean we as a community need anything for free. But sponsoring events, giving merch to some schools etc are usually whats done. IF you actually listen to what buddy says his issue was the fact the brand didnt need to even allocate funds to marketing because Kanye was the ticket. So their greed is what hes taking issue with.
