Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, was kicked out of the Sketchers Headquarters in California.

Reports say the rapper walked into the offices uninvited and started shooting a video.

He was shown the door, and a short while later, the company issued a statement saying it had no affiliation with him.

“Sktetchers is not considering and has no intention of working with West. We condemn his recent divisive remarks and do not tolerate anti-Semitism or any other form of hate speech.” Reads the statement.

Earlier this week, Adidas ended its long-standing partnership with Ye after his anti-Semitic remarks saying it doesn’t tolerate anti-Semitism and hate speech.

Adidas has been making Ye’s ‘Yeezy’branded footwear since 2013.
