Kanye West doesn't want beef with Michael Jordan
Kanye West isn't trying to burn any bridges with the greatest basketball player of all time.
The rapper switched from Nike to adidas a few months ago and then released a song not long after where he repeatedly said, "Yeezy, Yeezy, Yeezy just jumped over Jumpman." Seems like he's taking a shot a Michael Jordan, no?
Well, West set the record straight on Tuesday. It was meant to be a diss, but not directed towards MJ.

I'm sorry Michael Jordan I love and respect you. My beef was with Mark Parker. I respect you so much!
