July 17, 2013

Via The Metro Kanye West’s $120 plain white ‘hip hop T-shirt’ from his new clothing range has already sold out. French fashion label A.P.C, who collaborated with West over the collection (which, astonishingly, was two years in the making, according to A.P.C designer Jean Touitou), are currently restocking items.  There are not enough words to describe this level of stupidity. The sheeple who actually spent $120.00 on a plain white t-shirt really need to sort their lives out. As for Kanye and […]

If you want a taste of Yoko’s […]

He plays one intensely dark, primal track that he worked on with the French electro duo Daft Punk: the defiant anthem “I Am a God,” which he debuted live at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala in New York in May. It turns out this song was inspired by a serious diss—not from another rapper but from a major […]
