After Kanye West's recent anti-Semitic comments, "Power" will no longer be played before to AFC Bournemouth games this season.

The Premier League club is pulling the plug on the pregame song.

The Athletic reported on Tuesday that the team made this choice this week, following in the footsteps of other large organizations that have severed connections with the musician due to his recent, extremely insulting remarks.

The Cherries had performed the track prior to games for years now, rushing onto English soccer grounds to the melody as stadiums erupted in cheers.

There is currently no word on what tune will replace the Ye beat. The move comes after Adidas, T.J. Maxx, and Balenciaga lost ties with West, and just days after Jaylen Brown and Aaron Donald left his Donda Sports agency.

Meanwhile, Kanye West is making a swift move to locate a new home for his Yeezy sneakers, visiting the Skechers headquarters in an attempt to speak with the company's executives, but was turned away. This, after he and Adidas cut ties with each other.

It's weird for him to think Skechers will accept him now that so many large organizations are making it clear it's bad business to be associated with him.

According to sources acquainted with Ye's visit, the singer was at the company's headquarters in Manhattan Beach, California, on Wednesday morning, although this was not a scheduled meeting with management. Skechers proclaims that the rapper appeared unannounced and uninvited and after a conversation, two Skechers executives took Ye and his companions out of the building because he was involved in unauthorized filming.

Things are going downhill quite fast for the singer. Kanye West is no longer a member of the ten-digit club; he has lost a fortune due to Adidas's decision to end their agreement, in addition to the other partnerships that have ended.

Forbes announced on Tuesday that Ye has lost his billionaire status after Adidas terminated their agreement with him. Forbes notes that Adidas was a HUGE portion of his wealth and the final nail in the coffin, despite the fact that Adidas may not have sunk his billions on its own. Rather, it is a mixture of multiple transactions, including Gap, that have recently fallen apart.

Forbes reports that the majority of Kanye's wealth currently comes from a few of sources, including real estate, liquid cash, his music collection, and a share of less than 5% in Kim Kardashian's Skims company.
