So kanye mentions he wants to pick up were Steve jobs left off, I doubt Steve would want anything to do with a start up design firm with deals with 22 categories. Laughably bloated before they've even done one thing.

Kanye, please just stick with music, the only thing you're good at
 
some people have the spirit it takes, some have the money. he seems to have both.
he is also right about what he says regarding schools so I hope he succeeds. dude might have a huge ego but who cares as long as it helps bring ambitious projects like this to fruition.

He also doesnt have the brains for it. Seriously 22 different design divisions. Doing what?

I honestly think he saw all the coverage Steve Jobs got and thought "I want to be like him. How do I do that? Oh I know I get a bunch of people together,call them designers, give them my blessing and wait for the money and applause to roll in." That's not how it works.

It would be interesting to see him run into the various layers of beaucracy in this country and react to it though. Changing the school model in America. Good luck.

I don't think he has the money for such an endeavor either.

Dumb pic and Kanye would know that Abe didn't free the slaves.

Truth.
 
Can't believe people are hating on this. It could work since he's been building up connections in other creative industries for years now.

To me it sounds like he'll be setting up a consulting business.

And why do people think he has no experience? Kanye has been interning in the fashion industry for a while and has worked with other entrepreneurs for years now.
 
Kanye exemplifying again why he is more ambitious than anyone else in the industry.

Keep doin ya thing Ye. If your not ambitious and aiming a bit higher than what others believe is possible, I doubt anyone else would be.
 
So Kanye found a dog eared copy of Atlas Shrugged lying on a side table in his agent's office and 6 months later here we are.

Really? you forget where you are at?
 
yep, that's how we gonna improve the world. with fashion!
lol, just more ego-driven bullshit by someone who has no business or knowledge in pretty much all the fields he mentioned.
 
i admire ambition, except when it is the result of maladjusted ego. the only ability i see him having is that of a solid producer/beatmaker in hip hop. as a rapper i've always felt he was mediocre at best.

still, would love to be wrong and see kanye ( or anybody for that matter ) do something great.

Ambition is great and all, but being practical, realistic, and humble are also good things.
 
What is this company doing to even do. I mean, I can't see how they'll be able to do anything with such a wide scope of activities.

Didn't you read the breif man? Teachers, Astronauts, Fry Cooks, Polititions, Thinkers, Doctors ... Put them all together and what do you get?

PS4 - Kanye Edition -TM. Comes in Denim, Leather and Stupid.

January 7th, New York -- Today marks a very special day for the beginning of DONDA. I am proud to introduce Itch Bay, a new fashion line for the independent, classy women of today.
 
MBDTF is a classic hip hop album, but this is Donda nonsense is just him trying to be Steve Jobs. All this "education reform" talk from him is just bullshit
 
People whining about Kanye haters crack me up when you actually look around and see how many sycophantic fans there are on GAF. The GAF-Hop thread is full of them, this thread is full of them, etc. If anything the split seems pretty even to me. Dude is the most overrated motherfucker on the planet by a wide margin. Good producer, fucking trash rapper.
