The YEEZY Website Has Been Shut Down
On Sunday, YEEZY aired a 30-second ad in selected markets during the Super Bowl, promoting his website while he was seated in a dentist’s chair. In the commercial, he explains that he spent all the money for the ad on new teeth, and since he didn’t have enough funds left to shoot it professionally, he had to use an iPhone. Earlier, YEEZY’s online store offered various items such as T-shirts, sweatpants, shoes, all priced at $20 USD. A short while after the ad was aired, these products were removed from the site and replaced with a single white T-shirt with a black swastika called the “HH” (possibly standing for “Heil Hitler,” a Nazi Party rallying cry). Fox, the Super Bowl’s broadcast partner, has not yet commented on the content of the advertisement.
