DUDE, my mind has just been thoroughly blown. Holy shit.
The dude is 40 years old. Friends with Jay-Z, how has he not grown accustomed to working with financial advisors who interest is to also protect Kanye's estate...

Yeah, it's insane. lol
Glad Kanye brought him in, he's very underrated on production.
Kanye is in uncharted territory, no rapper has done what he's attempting to do with fashion. Shouldn't be surprising that he's lost money and had some learning curves along the way.
He said he was fixing it. It'll probably be on the wide release of the album and eventually updated on the tidal version.
definitely related to his fashion shit. ain't cheap.
that being said, his deal with adidas/yeezys should be paying all of it off. with demand>>>>>>>>>>>supply all the dude needs to do it a couple of restocks/new colorways/drop the yeezy 2 and he should be fine. then again I don't know the entire situation.

Shit man haha I need to contribute to Genius I guess.
Since this thread is taking a depressing turn, I would like to remind you how phenomenal Fade is (especially the end).
It is a shame that Ye makes stupid business decisions. I know he wants to make a huge impact, but he's not a cooperation. Everything he touches can't be gold. It's a shame because his music is so damn great.
I feel like his best will come later though. If he takes running for President seriously and takes some time to learn more for 4 years, out of his comfort zone, then yeah, I do think he'll be extremely influential. Right now, he's too KANYE sometimes.
But this isn't for me to say.

The Debt is just him signing on the loans for his projects; fashion, art, etc.. The stuff that doesn't really see a monetary RoI. And at 53 million, Kanye can easily pay that off with his music through tours and lower end merch. His debt isn't why he's asking for money.
He's asking for money because the type of stuff he wants to do is on such a large scale that it requires way more money than he can safely borrow without risking losing everything and then some. So he's seeking investors. That's all it is.
Though I have to say.. after reading the tweets about "San Fran" and how he thinks everyone there listens to rap... I have to wonder is 'Ye just drunk as fuck watching Silicon Valley re-runs or something right now?

lol I'm fucking laughing at everyone here that has no idea how money works. Just because he owes $53 million it doesn't mean he is broke, do you understand how much debt a lot of rich people have? you spend money to make money. He would still have a net worth of over $100 million.
It's kinda bothersome having to explain it every 20 pages just to get back to talking about the album. Blame Kanye lol

He posted the chart of what he wants to get involved in or influence right there on his Twitter and it was posted earlier on this page too.
That's a whole lot of pies he's trying to dip his finger into and a lot of the individual things would make his High Fashion costs look like nothing, not to mention the ideas that would have no cost roof as they'd involved perpetual research (Cancer and HIV research).

i wonder what DONDA is actually involved in. I know about their community stuff in Chicago and also the cover art that they do. but what else.
*coughs*
what is kanye smoking
He means he's rich in fibre.

I wouldn't have hated this old track list, you know.
it basically is that except he swapped fade with waves. both great tracks. everything after wolves is basically bonus tracks anyways.

Dont just come in here and post that dawg I seent you RT that 👀

He doesn't owe "somebody" $53 million, that's what he owes the banks for loans etc.
I think he makes ~$20 million a year, so he's got it covered at the moment. He just needs to slow down on the spending, but he wants to get in more debt by the sounds of it....
No it looks like he wants investors
Would you invest in Kanye?
No reason for Zuckerberg or any of those guys to.
Like, what exactly is he creating? Dyeing some goodwill clothes tan and writing lines like "Now if I fuck this model/And she just bleached her asshole/And I get bleach on my T-shirt/I'mma feel like an asshole."

Yo, this thread aint a safe space for your bullshit flimsy logic, hater.
ONLY 53$ million dollars in debt son. SMH at a fool. Kanye is on point.
Gotta spend money to make money. It's become apparent that y'all kno nothing about the game, cause if you did Mark Zuckerberg would be bailing yo ass out.
dude has ambitions far far beyond what he's doing now.
I'm not sure he has it in him but I'm sure people have been saying that all his life.

Are you kidding me? Dude had 20 million people tune into a midweek afternoon jam session on an unpopular streaming service at a packed MGS. This dude has awesome brand power.
