In a recent chat with the paparazzi, Kanye West attempts to make amends by apologizing about his comments on George Floyd&#039;s death

“Have a knee on my neck now”: Apologetic Kanye West Regrets His George Floyd Comments Following Adidas Divorce

Once the richest rapper in the world and a sought-after entrepreneur, Kanye West
seems to be on a universal blacklist. Owing to a series of antisemitic comments
by Ye, several of his high-rolling business partners, like Balenciaga, MRC
entertainment, and more, have ended their professional relationship with him.
However, the biggest blow to his empire was the falling out with Adidas.



This was not the Donda artist’s first controversy. A couple of weeks ago, West
appeared on the Drink Champs podcast and made several inaccurate statements
about George Floyd’s death blaming it on fentanyl rather than the Minneapolis
police officers. In a recent, seemingly on-the-spot interview with the
paparazzi, Kanye West [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west/] apologized for
his comments on Floyd’s tragic passing.

KANYE WEST APOLOGIZES FOR HIS FORMER REMARKS ON GEORGE FLOYD’S DEATH

In the aftermath of the Kanye West-Adidas split, the paparazzi confronted the
Power singer on Friday, October 28. Apart from his explanation regarding his
antisemitic behavior, West even expressed his regret for making false claims
about George Floyd’s death.

“When I see that video as a Black person, it hurts my feelings. And I know that
police do attack and America is generally racist,” stated
[https://consequence.net/2022/10/kanye-west-george-floyd-adidas/] Ye.

“So when I questioned the death of George Floyd, it hurt my people,” added the
Flashing Lights singer.

He further connected the tragedy to his falling out with Adidas. The rapper
allegedly seems to have had certain epiphanies after the massive sporting brand
severed ties with him.

“I want to apologize. Because God has showed me by what Adidas is doing, by what
the media is doing, I know how it feels to have a knee on my neck now,” said
West.

The Yeezy founder called upon God and expressed his gratitude to the deity.

“Because how could the richest Black men ever be humbled other than to be made
to not be a billionaire in front of everyone off of one comment,” stated the
Runaway artist.

After several severed ties with numerous companies, Kanye’s net worth has
reportedly dropped from $2 billion to $500 million; enough to strip off his
billionaire tag

Meanwhile, George Floyd’s family is also preparing for a $250 million dollar
lawsuit against Kanye West.
