Kanye West Posts Gigantic Rambling Message on Gap Store

Following the announcement of his new clothing line with Gap, Kanye West has unveiled a message about the partnership. A really, really big one.

On Sunday (June 28), photos started surfacing of a gigantic message that is draped over the Gap store at 555 N. Michigan Ave in Chicago. The larger-than-life memo covers the entire building and finds Kanye addressing his hometown.

“Thank God. Hi, Chicago. It’s ‘Ye. This is the Gap store I used to shop at when I would drive my Nissan from the Southside. So blessed. I thank God and I am humbled at the opportunity to serve. I put my heart into the color palette and every detail,” the message reads in part.

The rest of the message is a bit head-scratching, with ‘Ye seemingly throwing out random thoughts. “I love Tron original,” he continues. “Do you like stuff[[?]. I don’t know what to do with my hands. Love, Yeezy.”

Kanye first revealed his new deal with Gap on Friday (June 26). “YEEZY AND GAP FORM PARTNERSHIP #WESTDAYEVER,” the rapper posted in a tweet with a Gap logo featuring the word YZY.

Megan Thee Stallion

Megan Thee Stallion, celebrated for her fierce confidence and electrifying performances, recently opens up in a new documentary that delves deep into the intimate struggles behind her public persona. In “In Her Words,” streaming now on Prime Video, the Houston rapper and superstar bravely recounts one of her life’s most devastating moments: the heartbreak surrounding the death of her mother, Holly Thomas, in 2019. Megan’s experience of resilience and vulnerability shines as she shares the heartbreaking decision to take her mother off life support and how this tragic event of loss immensely impacted her life.

Throughout the documentary, Megan reveals how her mother’s health deteriorated rapidly due to back-to-back seizures, ultimately leaving her unresponsive and eventually brain-dead. Holly Thomas was more than just family; not only her mother but also her manager, mentor, and most prominent supporter. She had always been Megan’s guiding force, the foundation of her artistry, instrumental in shaping her career. With honesty and tenderness, Megan describes spending each day by her mother’s side, hoping for a miracle. But as time went on, watching her mother’s condition remain unchanged, Megan knew what her mother would want, facing the heart-wrenching realization that her mother would not come back to let her go.

“They had to put her under, and she was just brain dead,” Megan recounts. “I stayed up there every day… just praying that she could shake back from it,” she said. “But once I realized she wasn’t coming back, I knew I couldn’t keep her like this.” She made the decision, and her mother passed the following day.

The documentary highlights the depth of their relationship and the irreplaceable loss Megan faced. With her mother gone, she felt an unfamiliar emptiness. “When my mama passed away,” she shares, “I think I really forgot who I was. I lost a lot of confidence because I was so used to my mama telling me what to do.” The absence of her mother’s guidance hit Megan personally and professionally, leaving Megan adrift, grappling to rediscover herself alone amid her grief.
