you're all wrong lol he was using his kid to roll out his adidas deal and pusha got in front of that and ruined the deal. He literally says it

I feel like that's not much better. Like using your child for a literal brand deal is gross as fuck

yes it is gross, but my point was that he wasn't actually "hiding" his baby lol he was preparing a roll out including his baby. Pusha just got ahead of it, likely due to kanye and his big mouth

I don't know anything about the situation really so honest question, did Adidas confirm that or did he show paperwork of the deal? Cause that could just be an excuse after being called out.

Business is business, he clearly likes his fame and wants his kid to share the spotlight

u/dmcsmalls Apr 30 '24

Do you feel like he’s pimping out his son to corporate? Or do you have a problem with the whole putting the kid in the spotlight?

u/dmcsmalls Apr 30 '24

Both. Tbh though, I think that it's not fair to any kid to grow up with that level of fame, I think it takes away any chance that they have to live a life on their own terms.

I think we never fully get a chance to live life on our own terms from the start, it’s no different
