Did you like his new shoe collaboration with Louis V?

bboy87 said:

I didn't see it. Was it nice? I'm for anything that keeps him from rapping. I wish he'd just stick to producing.

Nooooo, he can't

SCNDLS said:

I posted them in that shoe thread!

bboy87 said:

I didn't know those were his.

Riiiiight. Just like 50 retired.

If this is true thank God


Let real cats handle it

Fashion? Music? Loose interpretations on both ends. These guys needs to just pick one to suck at!

Those shoes look like LA Gear circa late 80's early 90's.

i want the Air Yeezys, but supposedly they are going to run $300

Kanye trys too hard to have this Rocker coolness but he just comes off like a poser like his Big Brother Camel-z.

tamewar said:

He always struck me as the nerdy geek that came up but is still the nerdy geek and really self-conscious. He doesn't seem genuinely confident to me.

SCNDLS said:

Me, either.

oh good god

Yeah, him too. They'd be math teachers or something if they hadn't made it.

SCNDLS said:

Really cause i Think he is just trying to have that hmm Jimi hendrix/John lennon vibe when he is just really a cocky Fool that don't know shit.

Kanye on being the voice of this generation

If not me, then who? Someone could be a better rapper, dance better. But culturally impacting? When you look back at these four and a half years, who’s the icon at the end of the day? Who broke down color barriers? What other black guy would a white person use as a fashion reference?

He is a Asshole lol

$300 for those ugly things? No thank you.

His sneakers are tight. Anything that will help him keep his trap shut and from having public temper tantrums is fine by me.

bboy87 said:

The white pair has a lil' more style than the other 2, but the brown/black is a big no for that price.

this thread's crazy

yeezy is one of the best right now!

They might be and all power to them
Tastewise, the white pair looks classy, but i've seen similar kinda-looking pairs such as the red & brownies.
They don't look imo like they're worth the given price. Guess it's the trademark & material you're paying for.

From what I heard of his last album, I thought he left music a long time ago....?

tamewar said:

I think the cockiness is to mask his deep-seeded insecurities. His deluded self-importance is on display in that statement cuz he really doesn't realize that black men AND women HAVE inspired fashion for most of the 20th century. Yeah, that nucca crazy.

I don't want to promote violence against women but can somebody please punch him in the mouth?

"Put this in the magazine: There's nothing more to be said about music. I'm the f**king end-all, be-all of music. I know what I'm doing. I did 808s in three weeks. I got it. It's on cruise control. . . . Man, we talked about music for God knows how long! Now let's talk about how my f**king sweater didn't come back right from Korea. That's what's interesting me." --Kanye West

Truly living in his own dreamworld. Being confident in what you're doing is one thing but this ego-trip is somethin else

Presenting here the ultimate autotune-talent, soon doing a vocal battle with autotuneless talents :



The end-all, be-all of music ? Just another silly soundbite, and those 10 grammies lifted his ego to rediculous hights.
Where are those violins when you don't use autotune ? Lawd, even with autotune he already sounds bad.
And people in the audience are digging it ? At an audition this vocal level would get defenitely a "NEXT "

I won't deny that he did some interesting mix of releases, and experimented with samples & sounds, but he praises himself to an unrealistic level.
There's more music in this world available, then only your releases Kanye. It's not all about being the best seller in the charts.
