He then took aim at Adidas and Gap for not making moves to open Yeezy stores.

“I signed with both Adidas and Gap because it contractually stated they would build permanent stores. Which neither company has done even though I saved both of those companies at the same time,” the note continued. “Ima show you how to use social media.”

Of course, this message was visible by his 16.5 million IG followers and the requests to open and run his retail empire came flooding in.

“God is with us,” Kanye wrote along the post.

It’s clear Kanye has no more loyalty to Gap after he accused the company of leaving him of meetings and copying his Yeezy line.

He captioned the post, “But they canceled the photo shoot with my kids in Japan without me knowing.”

Last month, people on social media went off on Kanye for how his Yeezy x Gap merchandise was presented in stores.

The merchandise was stuffed into oversized, black construction bags, and as you can imagine, many people didn’t find this method appealing.

Many accused him of using the homeless crisis to his monetary advantage.

Kanye heard the cries and complaints of social media and decided to give a rare on-camera interview to FOX News.

When asked about backlash surrounding him being insensitive to the homeless, the rapper responded, “Look man, I’m an innovator. I’m not here to sit up and apologize about my ideas.”

He continued to defend his stance saying, “That’s exactly what the media tries to do. Make us apologize for any idea that doesn’t fall under exactly the way the want us to think.”

Not stopping there, Kanye explained the clothes are not stored in trash or garbage bags, but rather large construction bags.

He feels this style of product display and shopping makes the experience “easier and informal” for the shopper.

“This is not a joke, this is not a game, this is not just a celebrity collaboration… this is my life,” he explained. "I’m fighting for a position to be able to change clothing and bring the best design to the people.”

To really stick it to the social media trolls, Kanye said, "I'm up here literally working on homeless shelters. There's documentation of it where the city came and tore down my creations while I was doing it. So no one can tell me I'm insensitive when that stuff that I think about every single day and actually have put my mind and innovation to."
