Kanye West has expressed his gratitude to Snoop Dogg for standing by him in his ongoing legal dispute with Adidas.
The rapper is suing the sportswear company for breach of contract and unfair business practices after they cut ties with him over his antisemitic comments.
West, who had a successful collaboration with Adidas through his Yeezy brand, accused the company of exploiting his creativity and withholding his royalties. He also urged his fans not to buy any Adidas products, especially the Adidas 350 shoes, which he claimed were his original design.

West’s lawsuit against Adidas is expected to be a lengthy and costly one, as the company has denied any wrongdoing and vowed to defend itself vigorously. Adidas claimed that they had the right to terminate their partnership with West after he made several antisemitic remarks in public, which violated their code of conduct and damaged their reputation.
West, who has been vocal about his bipolar disorder and his religious beliefs, has faced a lot of backlash for his controversial statements and actions in recent years. He has also been involved in feuds with other celebrities, such as Drake, Taylor Swift, and Jay-Z.
