What happened?

The Black Lives Matter movement is very important for African Americans right now. Kanye being a Black artist, should have supported the movement. Unfortunately, he publicly tweets that he doesn’t find the underlying meaning of this movement and doesn’t support it. So, companies are cutting ties with him.
