Kanye needs to remember he is Kanye. Daymond John started out with 10 shirts and a LL Cool J endorsement and built a billion dollar company in FUBU, started a rap label, and went on to buy Coogi and other brands. All from "just t-shirts." If Ye was serious he'd do a small deal and start stacking to build towards becoming the new RL because we will support him now. But he wants to be RL out the gate which no one does, Black or White.

you give a good brother 250k, he will put in footwork and put himself on with no looks, or let the cosigns come to him.

this dude got millions
There are people who did it with $500. :wow:

Ye out here trying to be European, Black money is a Trillon dollars in circulation and he would instantly be a top 5 brand we support no matter what the shyt looks like.

not a good comparison. No one knew who Ralph Lauren was before the ties. Yeezy is probably one of the most POPULAR artist of out time. Why should he not get more support/cosigns.
because thats not how the high fashion industry works... they dont give much of a fukk about a cheap pop, they dont want to be hot for 5 years and played out after 10, they want to rock out for 100 years... everyone who is big in the high fashion industry if you read their stories most started as teenagers selling some hand made garments, then moved up to be grunt salespeople or seamstresses, then designers behind a bigger name, then won awards, then brought fame to their own boutiques, then get tapped to run a big luxury house after 30 years of grinding... kanye wants to skip all that because he is famous, and they looking at him like he crazy and throwing fits...
