    He really does have his mind set of fashion, so far it has been successful for him.

    The music will come... I hope! :ohno:

    Nah, f--- that n-----. I remember almost spending $1400 on the Platinum Yeezy 2s, I passed but deep down I knew I shoulda copped. Then when he made the switch to Adidas and the Yeezi collection got announced my hope was restored, I was actually gonna be able to afford something made by Ye without having to pay reseller prices. Guess it was all a lie like SWISH :wow2:

    I know he wants to, but don't tell us you're gonna provide affordable gear and then release even more expensive gear than Nike did. I understand it's mostly out of his control but don't open your mouth and get my hopes out. Imma probably a 30 something year old dusty n----- by the time his s--- becomes mass produced.

    How are you people not grasping the fact that Kanye doesn't have the control he wanted/expected to have ?? :what22:

    I get it, but just saying he shoulda waited before he made the claims. At least get Adidas to release them a couple of more times like wtf.

    Moreover i understand from recent interviews that he first needs the recognition of high-level fashion people in order to work with them... they'll only pay attention to people with a respected career.. being a low-art designer for cheap shoes will not generate the same buzz and elite status... it's a shame but that's how this f----- up economy works breh :wow2: at least for now... Kanye gonna democratize fashion, the economy and eventually the world..

    I think he didn't realize he had to take some few more steps before he could give the shoes to people the way he wants to..

    I'm saying.. *gasps* that *tries to remain calm* that Kanye will get there eventually.. but he wants to learn from the highest people in fashion first so he can use their knowledge and connections to build his own empire WHICH will eventually bring you the shoes that'll be doper than anything yet.. AND for a more democratized price.
