Davido encourages Kanye West to consider Puma collaboration amid Adidas criticism

Nigerian singer Davido has taken to social media to offer advice to American rapper Kanye West, following West’s recent public criticism of Adidas, the sportswear giant he has worked with extensively over the years.

Kanye West had recently aired his grievances with Adidas in a lengthy video post on Instagram, lamenting that the company had exploited his loyal fan base by releasing Yeezy designs without his approval. He further mentioned that Adidas was not compensating him adequately for his contributions, and instead, had taken legal action against him.

Davido, a global ambassador for Puma, took this opportunity to offer his support to West. In a post on his Instagram story, Davido encouraged West to consider working with Puma instead, writing, “Come to @puma Ye @kanyewest.”

This public show of support from Davido could potentially fuel speculation about a possible collaboration between the two artists, or it could simply be an expression of camaraderie and solidarity between individuals in the music industry.

It’s worth noting that Kanye West’s relationship with Adidas has been a significant part of his career, as he has released numerous successful collections under the Yeezy brand, which has become synonymous with high fashion and streetwear culture.

It remains to be seen whether Kanye West will take Davido’s advice and consider a collaboration with Puma, or if he will continue his relationship with Adidas, despite his recent grievances.
