“I doubt there is an immediate future for Kanye West in fashion,” said Luca Solca, global luxury analyst at Bernstein. “I believe a long period of atonement will be required in West’s case, before any brand will be ready to engage with him again.”The 45-year-old rapper, who released hit albums and produced tracks for Jay-Z and other stars, has for years talked about climbing the fashion industry ladder.

,” said Mr. West in a 2020 interview with The Wall Street Journal. By that point, Mr. West had already made several forays into fashion.on a much sought-after sneaker line.

That's ok anyway he is rich already unless there is a competition for net worth Lol😆😆

And now he says how everyone is against... illuminati.... blood drinking Satanists... when the universe is mundane and if instead you just don't call people names, or think you're better than, or blame others for your actions maybe you can join us into the future again

Meanwhile, the people who actually buy his products don’t care…

Just purchased his record

Finding out is for chumps. Don’t fuxx around, kids. Don’t be like Yé!

Now he and Taylor Swift have the same net worth. 🤣

Can we all just agree that this guy hates himself

Why is there always a speedy reaction when it's some anti- israel stuff in comparison to any other group, do they own that much influence or what?

So I guess we are saying that, to make more money, you can’t be yourself - need to say things you don’t believe and need to obey “the current thing”

Went do the hebrew speaking people get special treatment

Its business...cutting ties, starting a new is part of the process. Wsj...stick to business.

Tired of hearing this OLD OLD STORY - Do your job and focus on someone else to exploit and embarrass ! What you have no imagination - Thank god you guyz don’t have to rely on “newsprint” to sell your VOMIT or your business would be bankrupt years ago !

The man has just taken a page from the Trump playbook, which says, 'Notoriety is the goal, it doesn't matter if it is good or bad, as long as they are talking about you.' Don't let these men live rent-free in your brain.

Well done, kanyewest. Stick the the music. You’re good at music. Quit while ahead.

Stop talking about him and perhaps he will go away.

Good.

Someone needs to intervene and have him mentally evaluated

But if he was a Leftist they would be laughed off as just the rumblings of a funny, crazy, colorful character. Imagine if it was Snoop Dogg instead. Guarantee you different result.

| basically thought that it was a scam until I decided to give it a try with just a little start up of €1500 and I got €9,500 in 5days it's so am axing and everything works out thevoice_ofrose goodpost elements

西方标榜的言论自由在哪里? Where is the freedom of speech advocated by the West?

He’ll be fine

Babylon Bee is funny

Typical media response when someone speaks the truth. Cancel them. Scream racism, anti demotion, make them sound crazy. If they all say it then it must be true. You’ve stooped low WSJ.

Buh Bye...

See, also.

So why hasn’t a “news” agency solicited his interview to explain the premise and thoughts to explain his controversial opinions? Isn’t that what “news” agencies are supposed to do, rather than selectively report actions on the periphery?

Conservatorship huh?

Hate directed towards any groups or individuals cannot be tolerated in a free society where each person has a right to a life of dignity irrespective of his/her beliefs. We are all fortunate to enjoy the freedoms & protections we do in American civil society & must be considerate

He's learning the hard way that being a decent human is another requirement for success. 'Talent' will only get you so far and is less sustainable.

Funny how the Main stream shuts down any person that does not go along with their way of thinking. They tried to keep Kanye on the plantation and now that he left they are trying to devalue him as a person.

So those that deny they have this power are flexing the power because they are mad someone mentioned they have this power? Got it

Doesn't matter, the True Conservatives™ will have him run for Congress next.

And it doesn't matter to 99% of the world.

Congrats OfficialKat, I hope you're happy. I wish Karma will make you fall from grace before Kanye.

So, Kanye was right about them? eh?

Did he even have a present?

He has tens of millions of supporters who buy his stuff
