Kanye West releases personal documentary called Last Week

Kanye West has released a documentary about himself titled Last Week on YouTube.

The 30-minute-long documentary begins in the style of a video game and goes on to share details of Kanye’s recent life.

New music is also teased in the documentary with Kanye rapping to a muffled beat: “You a fake bitch / You don’t really love Ye / Go listen to Drake, bitch,”.

He continues, “You don’t have no idea what it take, bitch,” before adding that fans should listen to Lil Baby or Future if they don’t like what he has to say.

Another scene in the documentary shows Kanye playing a pornographic video to Adidas executives in a meeting.

One man asks, “Is this a porn movie?” Kanye replies: “Yeah”.

Last week Adidas announced that it was placing its deal with Yeezy brand under review following the rapper's appearance in a "White Lives Matter" t-shirt at his Paris Fashion Week show. It is unknown whether the meeting took place with Adidas before or after this.

Adidas told the BBC it had put the partnership under review after "repeated efforts to privately resolve the situation."

Adidas’ full statement reads: “Adidas has always been about creativity, innovation and supporting athletes and artists to achieve their vision."

"After repeated efforts to privately resolve the situation, we have taken the decision to place the partnership under review. We will continue to co-manage the current product during this period.”

Kanye has also recently been locked out from his Instagram and Twitter accounts for allegedly making a series of antisemitic comments.
