Adidas has officially settled its lengthy legal battle with rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, marking the end of all legal disputes between the two parties. The details of the arrangement were not disclosed, but the resolution brings closure to a period fraught with lawsuits.

This legal entanglement began after Adidas severed ties with Ye in response to antisemitic comments he made, leading to multiple legal challenges over the past two years. The once-strong partnership crumbled under the weight of controversy, sparking a series of courtroom confrontations.

Adidas CEO Bjorn Gulden confirmed on a conference call that there are no remaining issues or monetary exchanges involved in the settlement. The conclusion of these legal battles signifies a new chapter for Adidas, as it moves forward without the shadow of its partnership with Ye.
