Kanye West is very much on first-name terms with Louis Vuitton. “I’m here for Louis,” drawled the rapper at Paris’ Jardins de Bagatelle Friday, disclosing that he’s collaborating on a men’s shoes line for the brand. He’s obviously in a creative mood: West was dressed head to toe in his own designs, and said his women’s line will follow for fall. [Women's Wear Daily]

THANK YOU!! Do what you know dude. You got this for real. See this is why his ex fiance is a dumb dumb, like I said they should have had the dopest business relationship, a la Kimora/Russell. Regardless, this makes THE most sense. You know what else? As long as he pays his stylists and creative directors, he’ll make a bigger and respectable impact but, that’s just me.

Once again, it does raise the concern, instant hit clothing lines are not for the grassroots anymore. Its almost like he did music “just” to build the pub for his line.
