:lolbron: Look at the nikka closing his eyes and shyt.:russ:

For real though, he put in 13 million of his own money? Well he needs to eat the loss and move on. Fashion is a billion dollar industry. In the end of the day, where is the product? Regular nikkas aint going to be getting leather jogging pants. Aint no nikka going to buying 200 dollar white tees or jackets with conferate flags on them.


You think them cacs tolerate him, want to go into business with him? Trust they are watching. All this ranting and raving is not going to help him get accepted.

The meltdown is going to happen and it is going to be glorious.:lolbron:

I feel Yeezy tho

Sway was kinda saying what Marc Ecko was talkin about in his Breakfast Club interview, about building your own brand outside of the high fashion realm. But that's not what Kanye wants. His goal is to bring his brand into that that realm, and in order to do that you have to deal with those people. And these interviewers don't understand that, so I can understand his frustration.

Of course, his whole issue has no relevance to the average nikka but I recognize his stance and respect his passion :salute:

Ralph Lifshytz also got backing from Neiman Marcus to start off his career. Kanye literally has few of us with even the ability to do that. I understand where he is coming from here. I wonder how many of you guys making fun of Ye' love Pac. Pac was way more belligerent and ridiculous than Ye. He was a hypocrite that spoke about enlightening brothas at the same time killing them. Spoke about enlightening women at the same time calling them prostitutes.

This is a good parallel, but Kanye's fashion cause is less noble and more selfish than Pac's cause of empowering of black people as a whole.

Also, ASAP Rocky just came in the game and has worked on things with Raf Simons, so I think Kanye's rejection by people in that high fashion arena might just have to do with his image not fitting with their brand

why would Ye have to regress to making homeade fabrics and shyt. from my understanding Ye just wants a simple collaboration with some of these cats. Dude is willing to intern and everything so i dont get it. i hear what your saying because celeb endorsed clothing is extremely cliche and normally dont last long but i just feel like hes using hisnmoney/power to bypass some of the "grind" phase. I really think the higher ups just dont want to be associated with a black man who will speak his mind so loosely. thats not good for business.

Because the people who have the power all went through the grind and they just have no interest in cosigning someone who aint gone through the grind...
Thats it, thats how they run their culture, you see the have an actual culture that is heavy in the money but its not do anything at any minute to make money next week...
They want someone who has paid dues to run things...

Now its possible that a super designer cat who is 2 years in the game has designs so beautiful that he can blow up fast, kanye hasnt shown he has that ability, from what i have read kanye has never designed a garment pattern, he 'curates' other designers to implement his vision...

so dude doesnt have the designs, and hasnt paid the dues, you know how many celebs and rich folks want to be associated with Louis Vuitton? They get this stuff all day every day, a hot for now celeb wanting to run sh!t is not some new phenominon for them... they arent going to be impressed they dont need his cosign...

Naw...

At the end of the day he is trying to form a brand partnership and they just aren't interested. That's it, he isn't bringing anything to the table that they want. He is ranting and raving about it, but they dont need his money, dont need his cosign, dont need his fans, and dont need his designs... He has nothing they want, throwing a fit aint helping him here.

The weird part is he said he chose Jay over Dame because he wanted to learn how to talk and be nice to people and become more well liked..He said Jay could teach him that while Dame was too brash and agressive too...

Under Dame Kanye was one of the most likeable people in pop music.(remember the Dave Chapelle appearnces?)..Under Jay he's become an anti-christ type figure thats polarizing across racial line...People from all walks of life hate the dude...
kanye was always crying even under dame..we've just gotten sick of it after 10 years. the crying about grammys and mtv..to the bush thing to taylor swift etc... aint no different

Yeah, I agree. That may just be the case. Cos like I said above, dudes like ASAP Rocky is fitting in well with that crowd. He doesn't have his own collections but he is working on things with those designers

Yeezy ideas prob not as good as he thinks :manny:

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
thing is...Ye definitely had a bit of a point, he just sucks at talking.

dude went 13 million in the hole just trying to get that idea off the ground...sway can't relate to that.
Sway wasted 100s of thousands..it's 2 different brackets but they both don't have the same salary so 100s of thousands to Sway is like 13 mill to Kanye...and. Kanye said that he didn't have the knowledge at that point...well ok then..lesson learned..build ya shyt back up..and do what u gotta do now that u have the knowledge..but don't fukkin rant like a lil girl cause a nikka asked u a question..all he had to do was say he don't have the bread..

has anyone asked whether 'ye is on them drugs? His behavior has been so erratic since re-emerging after his moms passing.

I thought he was :troll: America, but now hes :troll: himself
man he is mentally ill and like always african americans don't know how to deal with that so we mock him and say he is on drugs. Dude lost his mind once his mom died and is likely all sorts of bipolar.

kanye KINDA had a point...

dude said how is sway is trying to give him knowledge when sway can't even operate on Ye's level.

Sway was right in that kanye wasn't just answering the question but Sway didn't really get what Ye was trying to say.
I wonder if this rule applied to his momma.....

"Ur not rich enough to talk to me"... nikka, I dont have to be a billionaire to see you are making a fool of yourself

This nikka gonna burn bridges until he 50s himself out the game
