Let's face it, it doesn't matter when you see this video; chances are Kanye West will be in the news. And, we know he's taking over the headlines right now.
It's easy to see why.
The media has called him everything, from good to bad, and let's not shy away from the truth. He loves exposure.
But, in this episode, we're not looking into that whole drama. Instead, we're diving into how Kanye's obsession led him to become a billionaire mogul in the fashion industry.
In August 2019, Kanye West appeared on the cover of Forbes magazine, and the world was ecstatic.
Gracing the cover of Forbes magazine isn't easy.
But Kanye wasn't happy. Instead, he was actually quite angry.
After the article came out, Kanye went on a Twitter frenzy. He called the editor a white supremacist who snubbed him and avoided the truth.
The reason for this tantrum?
The magazine didn't call him a billionaire.

Kayne is definitely a mad scientist whether that's good or bad depends on the person viewing him. His albums have that sort of mad genius construction, for me his music is where he earns my respect and not so much the fashion but what he has realized is that he can apply the same dedication to other areas in life in which people can resonate though not all may. His pursuit of greatest has left him viewable for the entire world to see and we come to expect the madness from him or even look forward to what he does next!

It is toxic to claim there is no objective criticism that can be made about Ye behavior, in denial of the fact he has be delirious, harassing KK, supporting a fascist, have rants supporting slavery is the fault of Black people as they accepted to be enslaved. Not only is it outrageous to brush aside is antics but it's dangerous to pretend such attitudes does not require medical help, is not nefarious for the people targeted and those suffering from his malicious propaganda.

@@jizzlecizzle1388 not to mention a few of his albums completely sucked a$$ (see Yeezus and Jesus is King, and Donda 2: well, this one wasn't even finished so I can't say it sucked since it has to be completed before I can say that the finished product sucks). you get my point though.

@@jizzlecizzle1388 Kanye can say what the fuck he wants when he wants to say it, just like every other American. When he says stupid shit people don't agree with it that's that. It's not "dangerous propaganda," you literal baby. Kanye has no political influence. He's an artist and designer. His words cannot be considered propaganda. It's just words. It's just opinions. No matter how bad you consider someone's opinion it is asinine to call that opinion "propaganda". Kanye will continue to think and say what he wants and go against the grain, seethe and cope. A lot of the shit he says is just him trying to be a contrarian and test the limits of political correctness and the status quo. Also, when he met with trump he pushed for non violent drug offenders to get released from prison and voiced his opinions on criminal justice reform. His actions were a catalyst for multiple offenders getting pardoned by trump.

But, I want to ask is it necessary to register it as a US company, what are the downsides of registering it here in Nigeria and serving the US market. (P.S. The company is a health tech company, focused on cancer and heart diseases, among other things, of which US is the biggest market in the world.) What's your take.. I'm open to any advice. Thanks in advance.

Kanye doesn't seek aproval. It's not that he wants people to call him a billionaire. It's that these people don't want to call him a billionaire and when he is a billionaire people will say oh he's crazy because blah blah he's a billionaire. He's a billionairebut can't keep his marriage etc. Now they're using the word against him like a derogatory way. They're using it like an excuse. Remember before kanye was a billionaire?

@ItsYaBoi888 2 года назад

for anyone saying that kanye west is a genius because he has 23 grammys, just keep in mind that there are other artists that have more grammys than him including paul McCartney and beyonce. so by that definition, they are BIGGER geniuses than kanye west? Quincy Jones has even more than Beyonce so he is an even BIGGER genius? I mean, where does it end, if this is the criteria by which we measure "genius"? I think kanye west is commercially successful. why isn't this enough? why he gotta be a "genius"? cuz he said so? guess he's also "god" then too, right? since he said so? it must be true? 🤔

@Therango32 2 года назад

You clearly don't know shit about the music. And yes of course Paul McCartney and Beyonce are musical geniuses. People who are uniformed on kanye as a whole tend to discount him Because they dont understand the work, planning and creativity that have gone into most of his albums. He has done things many artists couldn't dream of doing in the industry. He has become one of the most influential and important hip hop artists to ever live and one of the most important figures in music from the last 2 decades. These are undeniable facts. You don't win 23 grammies for nothing, you don't win rolling stone album of the decade for nothing. Dude built a massive brand empire but was raised in a run down house in Chicago by a single mother. He clawed his way from the very bottom to a multi billionaire by working hard and never compromising his vision.

@ItsYaBoi888 2 года назад

it's different, i'll give him that, but the stem player isn't "genius" as there are already other products out on the market (some of them for free) that do the exact same thing. See the following: Acapella Extractor. Melody ML. Moises.

@Therango32 2 года назад

Bro those are programs. The stem player is a physical device. Nothing like the stem player has ever been released at that price point before. People downloading free stem separation software are people that are already very into music and production. But many people buying the stem player likely aren't and just want to test the device out. This opens the door for more people to get into music production and allows a fun, toy like experience that other stem separation software doesn't offer. It's a physical in hand device that allows you to remix music as you listen. It is intuitive and touch sensitive. It clearly took some serious time, thought and engineering to develop and likely went through many iterations.
