Nigerian singer Davido has extended an invitation to American rapper Kanye West to join him at Puma following West’s public criticism of Adidas on social media. West accused Adidas of selling a Yeezy design without his approval and exploiting his fan base, leading to a $250 million lawsuit. Despite terminating their collaboration in 2022 due to antisemitic remarks, West expressed frustration over the unauthorized use of his name on shoes.

In response to West’s grievances, Davido, a global ambassador for Adidas rival Puma, took to his Instagram story to suggest, “Come to @puma Ye @kanyewest,” encouraging the rapper to explore a collaboration with Puma instead. The move reflects the competitive dynamics between sportswear brands and the potential for high-profile collaborations in the industry.
