Rapper and designer Kanye West, who goes by “Ye,” has terminated his Yeezy brand partnership with Gap Inc (NYSE: GPS) two years after the deal was announced.
“Everyone knows that, you know, I’m the leader, I’m the king, right, so a king can’t live in someone else’s castle. A king has to make his own castle,” West said Thursday on CNBC’s “Closing Bell.”
In June 2020, West announced a partnership with Gap to design and sell a line of clothing under the Yeezy Gap brand.
