Kanye West has changed the name of his new song from Theraflu to Way Too Cold in a move that many speculate was at the urging of Novartis Consumer Health.
The pharmaceutical company claims ownership of the name Theraflu that is sold as an over-the-counter cold and flu medication.
Novartis said earlier this month, “We in no way endorse or approve of the references or use of the image and likeness of Theraflu in this manner.”
The controversial rapper posted the news on his website:
The artwork posted on West’s website no longer shows a likeness of the product to promote the newly titled Way Too Cold. Instead a stark white container is positioned above a headless nude art deco depiction of a woman wearing a fur coat.
