Kanye West signed “F*** Adidas” album goes up for auction: how much is it worth?
The ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ vinyl was signed in Paris. It is now up for auction.
A Kanye West superfan is about to land a huge fee when his signed ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ album goes up for auction.
The 2010 release was signed by West in Paris back in February of this year, when West was embroiled in further controversy regarding his comments on the Jewish community, with various big-name brands pulling out of deals with the rapper.
The moment came when West stepped out of the The Ritz hotel in Paris with his wife Bianca Censori. Waiting outside were a crowd of fans, all chanting “F*** Adidas.”
Ye hit out at Adidas over production controversy
Adidas was one of West’s most popular and successful collaborations, with the ‘Yeezy’ shoe regularly selling out and becoming a staple of every street fashion fan. However, the brand cut ties with West in November 2022 over antisemitic comments and months later, Kanye made sure the breakup was once again back in the news.
“Anybody who loves Ye would not buy these fake Yeezys I never made these color ways I’m not getting paid off of them and adidas is suing me,” The rapper wrote on Instagram regarding the Adidas 350s, a shoe that was based on a West design that the brand continued to sell after the end of the relationship.
“All these celebrities and the public will stand against a T shirt or the color of my hat but when yall see me have my children hidden from me or see an actual Fortune 500 company rape one of your heroes in real life don’t nobody say nothing or do nothing.”
“As far as the system goes What yall gone do now Take my album down again Freeze my accounts again Threaten people to not work with me again All the new non approved 350′s are cooorny”, he concluded.
West scribbled the words “F*** ADIDAS” on the lucky fan’s album - of course, with the full expletive.
Now, the fan will put the album up for auction, and will not accept offers for less than half a million dollar, with ‘Moments in Time’ saying that they plan to auction “this unique piece of rap history” and will only consider offers “in excess of $500,000.”
