Yeezy received a loan “between $2 million and $5 million,” according to the Small Business Administration via The Hollywood Reporter. Yeezy disclosed that 160 jobs were saved thanks to the program.

The program was introduced to help businesses struggling during the novel coronavirus pandemic. The loans are forgivable but the amount of forgiveness is reduced if companies reduce their number of full-time employees or cut wages by more than a quarter.
