Kanye West supports dreamers in light of pop-up shop glory
Rapper Kanye West has promised fans he fights for the rights of dreamers after scoring another huge fashion win.
The 38-year-old musician hosted a temporary clothing sale in New York City from 18-20 March (16), calling the retail event the Pablo Pop-Up shop, and according to him the affair was tremendously successful.
"they called me crazy and pointed fingers (sic)," he tweeted on
Tuesday (22Mar16). "but there is no other brand that could sell 1
million dollars of clothing in 2 days from 1 location!!!"
Although Kanye has premiered several fashion collections in the
past, most recently unveiling his third Yeezy collaboration with
sportswear line Adidas at New York Fashion Week last month (Feb16),
he has been dissed by many critics who discredit his talent as a
clothing designer.
So his latest victory in the rag trade is particularly special for
the star, who also released his seventh studio album entitled The
Life of Pablo around the time he held his runway show for the
latest Adidas collection.
In Kanye's mind, his creative expression is doing the world a great
service.
Speaking about both his album and the pop-up shop, he wrote in a
series of tweets: "This is the people the culture the dreams the
future. I promise I will never let the people down. I want a better
life for all!!! Pablo Pablo Pablo Pablo! I stand with the utmost
humility. We are so blessed!!! All praises and blessings to the
families of people who never gave up on dreams".
"I represent the dreamers," he added. "And I promise the power is
in the people and I will use the power given by the people to bring
everything I have back to the people. We are here to make life
better."
