Kanye West added more names to his enemy list, and this time he added a family member. He is reportedly furious that sister-in-law, Kylie Jenner, just signed a contract with PUMA. West knows the capacity of the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan to influence in social media, and for her to endorse a different brand other than Yeezy might cost him some sales.
The 38-year-old fashion designer took to Twitter on February 9 to shut down rerpots that his wife, Kim Kardashian's sister is going to seal the deal with PUMA.
"1000% there will never be a Kylie Puma anything. That’s on my family! 1000% Kylie is on Yeezy team!!!" he tweeted. But on February 17, Kylie made it official by signing the contract with the company and this made West upset.
Kanye West is not too happy that Scott Disick is befriending his ex, and Kim Kardashian's number one nemesis, Amber Rose. West reportedly got so upset that he wants Disick to return all the Yeezy Boosts and merchandise that he has given him.
She wanted to share the "Kylie look" with everyone and felt the only way to do that is through started her own business, so that is what she did. Her business has been very success full. A lot of people love her products. She started off with a small business like every business starts off. It wasn 't easy she had to put a lot of time and effort into this if she wanted it to work, so that is exactly what she did. The business has been around for about less than a year now. Her main focus is on young women teenagers/early adults. She started off with just lipsticks she called them "lip kits" the lip kits were what got her name to be known. Later on, she started making eye shadow pallets and more lip colors. So with her coming out with all these news products she started to build a bigger name for her company. Her company all started online. Her first online launch sold out within 5 minutes. She used to only sell "kylie cosmetics" online, but just recently she is opening a store in the mall located in Californa. The store she says will be open December 9, 2016. She did a collab with her sister Khloe, so Khloe came up with lipstick ideas and got her name put on kylies products and had them solid on Kylie 's website. With Kylie doing her collab with Khloe is brought in a lot of business for the two girls. Saling a product with your name on it is one thing, but selling a product with two well-known people will make you a lot of money. Now both Kylie and Khloe make a lot of
Unfortunately, on the album release they removed Lil Kim’s guest spot. Supposedly it was shortened to live more room for Rick Ross.
Somehow the artist convinced Dash to sign him: “With reluctance Damon Dash signed West to Roc-A-Fella in 2002…” (“Kayne”). That was his big break. Kanye West was not given everything he has today. To get to the place where he is today, he had to fight like a warrior. He fought until he got signed to Roc-A-Fella, but soon after he got signed, he got into a serious accident that caused his jaw to be wired shut. Thankfully that didn’t stop him. He wrote an amazing song “Through the Wire,” and later got it produced. As stated before, Kanye West went through especially hard obstacles. He got rejected many times from various producers. He even got his jaw to be wired shut, but that didn’t stop him from fighting for his dream. He achieved his dream of becoming a serious rapper, and on top of that, he created a successful fashion line, and became a record producer.
Kanye was one of the people who got me into liking fashion; he always had a demeanor of not caring and does whatever he wanted, now many people say that he’s an arrogant person or narcissist that only cares about himself. But I view differently, he does have a big ego, also he can back up his ego. He changed the whole music game and became wildly successful in whatever he pursued. Kanye released his first shoe in 2009 called the Nike Air Yeezy , which retailed $215 and they sold out immediately. He then released the Nike Air Yeezy 2 the shoe was released with 5000 of each color way in 2012. The retail price was $245, the shoe gained fame for its crazy inflated resale value upwards of $4,000. There was also two premier colorways of the shoes which were Solar Red and Pure Platinum; there was also another colorway release called Red Octobers once the shoes were release they all sold out immediately. The demand for the shoes exceeded the supply for the shoes. This caused the shoes that were resold by buyers that could cost over $36,000 a pair on ebay. The Red Octobers peaked in sales of $1.4 million on its release. On the last three that were sold, “sold for $36,900.00, Nike Air Yeezy II Red October Size 10.5 (Feb. 10th) $15,000.00, Nike Air Yeezy II Red October Size 10.5 (Feb. 15th) $11,000.00” (terapeak.com). Kanye is also releasing another shoe called the Yeezy Boost “Moon rock” on November 14, 2015 this shoe has an insane amount of demand, many people want to get ahold of this shoe because it was designed by Mr. West himself. They’ll retail for $200 and WILL sell out within a few seconds of its release. The average resell price is $1000. This shoe release will contribute to the economic impact of the fashion industry on the
Kanye West is the definition of controversy. From his humble beginnings all the way to his grandiose luxury rap. He is the first person to tell you that he deserves his wealth and fame, and he truly does. Kanye West became involved in the hip hop scene in Chicago as a teen, where he crossed paths with No I.D., a producer who quickly picked up Kanye as a student, and thus started Kanye’s career as a producer. Making beats for local artists, he eventually developed a unique style that changed the face of hip hop. By adding samples of soul music, he was picked up quickly as a full time producer, and at the age of nineteen, he earned his first production credit on the debut album of a Chicago rapper, Grav. From there, he struggled to break into the mainstream throughout the late 90s, producing beats just to keep the lights on. At 20, he dropped out of college to focus on his musical work. His big break happened in 2000, where he began to produce for Roc-A-Fella Records, with influential artists such as Jay-Z on board. Kanye is credited with bringing Jay-Z’s career back to the limelight, with his production values on “The Blueprint,” which is often ranked as one of the greatest hip hop records. This success created an incredible amount of interest in West as a producer. Producing as an in-house producer at Roc A Fella, he also produced hit singles for artists such as Ludacris, Alicia Keys, and Janet Jackson.
Lil Wayne made a big announcement onstage at KMEL's Summer Jam in Oakland, California. The rapper told the crowd,"I just signed a deal with my motherf***ing idol Jay Z." The "deal" for which Wayne is referring to is still unclear at this present moment. There's a lot of speculation that the New Orleans rapper is referring to a management deal with Roc Nation. Cortez Bryant is currently Wayne's manager, and he jumped to the defense of his client in regards to the drama with Cash Money Records. As previously stated, Wayne is attempting to get his contract with the label terminated, and he is suing Cash Money CEO Bryan "Baby" Williams for more than $50 million dollars.
After researching Kanye West as my pop culture topic, I came to the conclusion that I was interested in looking at him through the lens of Business. Business can also be known as an enterprise or as a company. Its main goal is to provide their costumers with goods and services in exchange of money. The people who provide this service become successful by offering people exactly what they want or simply by creating something that convinces people that they need it. Business is a wide topic that needs a lot of human behavior understanding and a person who is able to analyze how to be successful and manage money.
“Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you…I’ll let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!” (West). Most people if they don’t know anything about Kanye West, they know this quote. When anybody hears his name everybody always has an opinion. Some people love him, while a lot of other people hate him, each for a variety of reasons. Though most people only see the arrogant and egotistic side of Kanye, the more important side that people don’t always see is the hardworking musician. In order to fully understand Kanye’s motives and to fully appreciate him, people have to know how he got to the point he is now today.
As of today, January 27, 2016, a twitter beef has been released into the cyber word at the hands of Kayne West and Wiz Khalifa. The two pretty popular hip-hop artists were seen going back and forth on each other’s pages feuding about the title of Kanye’s new album called “Waves”. It was then assumed by Kanye that when Khalifa tweeted the initials “KK”, he was eluding to a rude inside joke about Kim Kardashian, Kanye’s wife. This then sparked an annoyance in Kanye, who hadn’t tweeted much since before the upcoming date of his new album release, causing him to go on a 20 plus post rant about Wiz Khalifa’s rap career, ex-wife, and child. Khalifa, who chose not to respond too much to Kanye’s bashing, was then bashed by the Kanye twitter fans who
“Taylor has had her thoughts about Kanye, and if he keeps calling her out, she can’t do anything about it. He is burying his own grave,” the source told HollywoodLife exclusively. “She knows she has unbelievable support in this feud and she is humbled by it."
Throughout history women specifically have felt the need to change their physical appearance in order to be accepted by societies beauty ideal. Social media has influenced women to believe that the word “beauty” defines the outward appearance according to the internets definition — “beauty is a combination of qualities, such as shape, color, or form, that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight.” The definition itself allows anyone to mistakenly interpret the word “beauty” to determine whether or not the physical appearance is attractive enough to be considered beautiful. There are so many emphasis placed on a person’s physical appearance that makes one “beautiful" and “desirable" such the numbers on a scale or measurement, youth, color of skin, etc., but for those who do not meet the media’s ideal expectations are judged or ridiculed. Social media perceives a strong influence on women and what people define beauty to be, but realistically, humans are built to be compelled by enhanced images that are presented in advertisement that create an illusion and fantasy that people admire. The ideal physical appearance that is propagated tends to connect with numerous organizations whose profits promote cosmetics to illuminate facial structures, photoshopped images of famous figures seen in magazines or ads, and cosmetic procedures including liposuction, breast enlargement, and plastic surgery to attain the perfect body ideal. With the continuation of women believing in
Some of his actions has led him to receiving much criticism from the public. One of his most noticeable act is cutting off Taylor Swift at the 2009 VMA’s. Most people criticized him saying who does he think he is taking Swift’s Spotlight moment like that. Jesus was also criticized by those who didn’t believe in his ideas. Now we know it wasn’t the right time for him to go up there, but it was what he believed so he decided to say it at that moment. Mr. West believes that he’s the voice of the generation. I can agree with this statement because recently there was a White House petition for him to release his album “Swish”. That action shows the Kanye West’s music is so empowering and enjoyed that fans are petitioning for him to release his music by force. His ideas are well received that fans are ready to listen to his most recent project. West takes in the voices of his people and turns it into amazing music. In the bible we read that wherever Jesus preached many crowded around to hear the good news from him. Kanye West’s fans are like disciples who follow his
Rob’s sister, Kim Kardashian West wants to discuss this ludicrous idea with Rob and she is desperate to change his mind. Apparently, Kim has already talked to her brother, but it ended up in a huge fight, according to the source.

It is safe to say that he has the best and top “omg” Moments, such as interrupting Taylor Swift at the VMA’s. Kanye in the begging when he first came on the hip hop scene was this calm, joyful, his music in my eyes was the most different music out at the time, just because he wasn’t rapping about what everyone else was. Kanye was one of those joyful guys, everybody wanted him on his record or produce it. Then a tragic event occurred where his mom died. After then you see
