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.

“We are excited to welcome Kanye back to the Gap family as a creative visionary, building on the aesthetic and success of his YEEZY brand and together defining a next-level retail partnership,” Mark Breitbard, Global Head of Gap Brand said of the collaboration.

The new line will feature “modern, elevated basics for men, women and kids at accessible price points.” West has hired Nigerian designer Mowalola Ogunlesi as design director of the new line.

Bianca Censori Defies Hotel Dress Code in Scandalous Style with Kanye West

Bianca Censori

Earlier this week, Bianca Censori and her husband Kanye West were spotted at the iconic Chateau Marmont for lunch. The Australian model, known for her daring fashion choices, turned heads yet again with her provocative outfit. Censori sported a tiny pair of shorts, black heels, and a revealing white bikini top, which undoubtedly caught the attention of both onlookers and the hotel staff.

Despite Chateau Marmont’s strict business casual dress code, Censori’s nearly nude appearance did not elicit any complaints from the staff. This is not the first time Censori has pushed fashion boundaries at the luxury hotel. Earlier this month, she made headlines by arriving in a thong and later in a sheer nude mini dress paired with long stockings, heels, and a tan hat, while Kanye shielded her from photographers.

Keke Palmer Defends Tyler Perry Amid Misogyny Backlash, “The Real Enemy is the System!”

Keke Palmer

In a recent episode of her podcast Baby, This is Keke Palmer, Keke Palmer hosted Tyler Perry, sparking intense discussions online. Perry’s comments, addressing long-standing criticisms that his films often depict Black women in distress, went viral. Defending his creative choices, Perry stated, “A large portion of my fans are disenfranchised. Who cannot get in the Volvo and go to therapy on the weekend. You’ve got this highbrow negro who is all up in the air with his nose up looking at everything… Don’t discount these people and say their stories don’t matter. Who are you to be able to say which Black story is important, or should be told? Get out of here with that bullsh*t.”

Perry’s remarks led to significant backlash, including accusations of misogyny. In response, Keke Palmer took to social media platform X to defend Perry. She argued that critics are misdirecting their anger. “The enemy isn’t Tyler, it’s the system that makes it hard for multiple black artists to shine at one time,” Palmer asserted. “Oppression turns you against the person that gets the shine opposed to questioning why there can only be so few at a time. Tyler is not the gatekeeper of all black stories; he’s just one creative who broke through the system. Advocating for others to do the same is the fight, not hating Tyler for his work that many do love.”

Palmer also highlighted Perry’s significant contributions to the Black community in a follow-up tweet, noting his employment of numerous Black individuals and urging followers not to “blame his movies for oppression.”
