R.I.P TO H&M
As you can see the world wide brand ''H&M'' is having a horrible start in 2018. We know the Brand H&M is a brand that is most popular around the world, but is it worth the money you pay for ?
H&M faced a lot of backlash after their lawsuit against the famous graffiti artist Revok. The brand H&M was called out by famous street artist Brian Donnell a.k.a ''KAWS'' who then drew a sketch which is below dissing the brand.
H&M then begins to claim they have dropped the lawsuit after all the backlash there facing. "H&M respects the creativity and uniqueness of artists, no matter the medium,", they stated in an official document. "We should have acted differently in our approach to this matter. It was never our intention to set a precedent concerning public art or to influence the debate on the legality of street art. As a result, we are withdrawing the complaint filed in court." This statement would've been cool and all, but how ever they did not stick to there word. As REVOK's attorney Jeff Gluck confirmed that the lawsuit was still in progress. “This evening I spoke with counsel for H&M. They informed me that they are NOT, in fact, dismissing the lawsuit,” he states.
However this is not the only Controversy H&M is facing this year. They faced massive criticism when the featured a little African american child in green hoodie which stated "Coolest monkey in the jungle" which is also shown below.
This also made them loss there deal with the singer Weeknd." woke up this morning shocked and embarrassed by this photo. i’m deeply offended and will not be working with @hm anymore..." he stated on twitter on 1/8/18. H&M, based in Sweden, then apologized for what a wide spread of people said was an insensitive association between the young model and a hateful slur against black people. But are they really sorry? OR are they just trying do dig a hole so they can get thrown off the market quicker !!
