I bet Kanye one of the hardest people to talk to

“man i want some burger king”

“Burger King. Burger king? bURger kING?!?! WE USED TO BE KINGS! I WAS CONVERSATING WITH DONATELLA VERSACE TRYING TO GET MY DREAMS OUT AND WE WERE GOING OVER THE FABRICS AND SIRENS, AND YOU KNOW WHAT I HEARD? WHAT’S A KING TO A GOD? I AM KING GOD!? SHE DIDN’T UNDERSTAND AND THAT’S WHAT I’M SAYING. YOU’RE A SLAVE TO BURGER KING. we neeeeeeeeeeed to be building burger kings. We’re all burger kings. Not them. I am. get me a whopper.”

Well there are plenty of people who didn't "put in the work" and are running high fashion brands.
Scott Sternberg was a CAA agent before he started Band of Outsiders, Marcus Wainwright & David Neville worked in telecom and banking before starting Rag & Bone, Patrik Ervell was a liberal arts major, the list goes on.

I agree with you on the point that Ye needs to just shut the fukk up and start his own shyt, like the guys I mentioned did but I think he has enough credentials and experience.
Motherfukkers with less resources have started high fashion lines and survived. Dude just needs to make it happen.

I actually believe, outside of race or class or whatever reason Ye brought up, the real reason he got turned down so many times is just that he's not the easiest guy to work with.

With music, you just need 10~20 key people to produce great products. You put talented writers, producers, and musicians in the studio and shyt comes out hot.
(I'm obviously leaving out the marketing and distribution part that come later, but still, it pales in comparison to what goes on in fashion)

Fashion, on the other hand, is whole 'nother animal. The production process involves literally hundreds of people from fabric, pattern making, cutting & sewing, labels, hang tags, etc.
The logistics is a bytch, too. You can't compare putting CDs in BestBuy to stocking garments from different parts of the world in many different sizes in boutiques all over the world.
And unlike music, where you just can drop an album once every two year and be good, you need to put out collections every fukking season.

You really gotta be a team player and gotta know how to be patient - because shyt will get delayed and fukked up from fit to finish, fabric to buttons.
That's why he'd be better off starting his own shyt and focus on specific categories.

Another thing is, he lacks a certain degree of aloofness or that cool factor that high fashion guys have.
That eagerness and passion of him are the factors that brought him here, but in high fashion, that sets him back.
These guys are masters at playing it cool or being fake humble.
They're always like, Oh I just make clothes. What I'm doing is not important. There are guys who save lives and build rockets.
Kanye, on the other hand, tries too hard in these guys' eyes.


Perfect post

Kanye is another fake anti-establishment rapper still looking for validation. He probably thought his foray into fashion was going to be similar to his come up in music and so far it hasn't and that's what really frustrates him. He's frustrated that he's being treated like the average nikka. He probably believes he's better than the average 9 to 5 black man going to work everyday and coming home. Understand he resents being treated like YOU AND I. His ego was bruised by these gay euros and now he's using you fanboys and stans to push his through a closed door. Go attempt to talk to him about your dreams and ambitions and watch him dismiss you. He's selfish!

Kanye isn't me or you. He is validated his creative and artistic genius. If he was White, best believe he would have anything he wanted.

continue putting him and all these other black entertainers on a pedestal

That's not a pedestal. If you do good at your job in whatever industry you in you earn clout. Kanye has earned clout with all of his successful creative endeavors.

:usure:She ain't even the baddest bytch in her own family.


:comeon:He whinin like a lil bytch cause they wouldn't treat his wack ideas like its genius, and rockin leather joggin pants like a fakkit is the definition of c00n shyt.


:beli:Ain't nothin to read into stans just tryna cape and dikkride by puttin a smart dumb nikka spin on it.


:snoop:This type of logic is what separates smart dumb cats from true brothas fightin for a actual cause, if he really sayin these people who run fashion are condescendin elitist prejudice cacs like yall claimin then he wouldn't support their companies period. When Jay-Z who accordin to yall is a sellout tryin not to piss off whitey felt Cristal was on some racist shyt he quit fukkin wit them and encouraged his fans to boycott they shyt too, a "real nikka/rebel/revolutionary" ain't gonna continue to put money in the pockets of someone they think is a morally bankrupt individual tryna keep a brotha down they gonna ride wit a righteous muhfukka or start they own shyt and try to take over especially when they got they own money and resources. This dude a more phony and hypocritical pro black fraud than Nas, smarten up.


Word you can tell who the crackas and fake nikkas are by them co-signin bytchmade homotional behavior from a two-bit sissy.:mjpls:


Fixed


:ufdup:Bad enough he has the audacity to say he Pac but now his stans believin it too, got nikkas out chea tryna compare him to:mj:and other blasphemous nonsense. shyts disgustin.:pacspit:


You're fukkin mad.:umad:

you really think though when marc jacobs showed up to LV to put cherries on a purse or whatever he did his resume just had his personal info and under skills just had "gay" and "white" and he got the job? and what exactly has kanye contributed to fashion? made it cool for young black kids to dress like gay white kids? 10 years ago he made it cool to dress like its casual friday at an office job everyday?he's not exactly a visionary. I know going in this is a far fetched and extremely unlikely hypothetical BUT what if kanye's dream job came at the expense of a young black designer that busted his ass in the fashion world to work his way up or whatever, is that ok?From what I can tell the kid at balmain( i can't think of his name right now , which is weird considering how fashion and race aware kanye is you'd think itd be dropped in every verse) is going to open more doors than what kanye will with this nonsense.

"WAAAHHHHH! YOU GUYS GAVE NEGATIVE OPINIONS ABOUT A RAPPER I dikkRIDE! WAAAHHHH!" this is a discussion board not a Kanye fansite and not everyone is gonna say somethin positive about the topic of the discussion so miss me wit that shyt.
