According to AllHipHop, West’s admirers have started a number of pages to raise money for him after his net worth significantly declined last week as a result of Adidas and other companies cutting connections with him.
“Make Kanye West a Billionaire Again” was the title of one page with a massive fundraising goal of $1 billion
A few other pages are still active, but GoFundMe removed that one after it only raised $5.
According to Forbes, the 45-year-old’s collaboration with Adidas for his Yeezy apparel line contributed $1.5 billion of his net worth, leaving him with just $400 million without it.
