Last week, Kanye West announced his Life of Pablo pop-up shops. Fans lined up for hours to reportedly get only two minutes to run inside the stores, grab merchandise, pay, and get the hell out. Maybe Yeezy gave them a time limit so customers wouldn’t have time to inspect the quality of the merchandise?
But London shoppers are letting it be known they’re not pleased with the “cheap” merchandise that the pop-up shop was selling.
According to The Sun, T-shirts from Yeezy’s collection were printed on Gildan ultra cotton tees…a brand that retails for less than $3. But Yeezy marked up the price to $93!
“I queued up for hours to get in to Kanye’s shop and I was so excited to get one of the limited edition London T-shirts. However, I’m not so excited about my purchase now I know it’s basically a cheap T-shirt with a print.”
Many retailers use wholesale T-shirts in their clothing lines, but at least they’re smart enough to switch out the damn tags!
Yeezy’s out here scammin’ and deceiving his fans just to make a buck SMH.
All this to be relevant. What if all the third world countries and 'neighborhoods' stopped sewing clothing? Now that would be interesting, especially for rich people. The movie, Real Women Have Curves showed this shit – how a Chicano mom and pop 'company' sewed for pennies yet clothing was priced for high end stores. It's about the labor, not necessarily the label.
Are we surprised?…I mean everybody thinks that Black folks are stupid enough, to buy anything, eat anything, and believe anything that their told, or sold!…And aren't most Blacks, insecure enough, to buy crap with some "worthless" niggas name on it, just to feel more important, than they actually are…Most of the population is retarded! So why are insecure, bozo the clown ass niggas, upset about industry coons, outright disrespecting you, and your hard earned money…He is charging an arm, and a leg for cotton T-shirts with holes in them…I remember in the 80's, it was a running joke, that people are buying dungarees (jeans) with wholes in them…These c!othes are ugly, poorly made, with cheap cancer causing dyes in them, and he's making a 10,000% profit, because he's paying an underage slave in Bangladesh 50 cents a day to make that crap for his Caucasian handlers!???????Don't complain now, you dumb niggers!?????
Where did you read that the pop up shop's customers were black??? I don't know any black people who support or even like Kanye, but lots of YTs like him.
Maybe you just had a knee-jerk reaction?
@Anon 15:41 My comment was about the disproportionate amount of Blacks that support unnecessary bullshit, and excess! I've seen Blacks on more than one occasion, rave about his sneakers!….It wasn't a knee jerk reaction, because I was speaking on all fashions. How many niggas are label whores?….most!….And they will f*ck, suck, steal, and kill for labels!….Caucasians support rap music, more than we do, but Black people will kill over some clothes!…okay!…This is way beyond Kanye's stankin ass, just saying!
You sound crazy. Black people do not buy his garbage, so why are you ranting against them?
If whites buy the garbage arent THEY the label whores? I dont even know a black person who listens to his music.
Q….That was point exactly. If Kaye is ripping off white folks with his overpriced product that they buy just because his name is on them, shouldn't we applaud him for turning the tables? Black folks are ripped off by whites everyday, so YAY!!!! Kanye.
his handlers are joos not caucasians…
can't you see the difference between a Woody Allen and a Clint Eastwood ?
Jews are just as white as all other Caucasians. There are only THREE races, and Jewish is NOT one of them.
Nice to see someone with a brain and an education around here.
Negroid
Mongoloid
Caucasian
you mind is so mixed up …. btw there is another racial types other than the caucasoid, mongoloid and negroid, but the joo owned medias (96% of the medias btw) does not want you to know that the semitic type is also a racial group…
Explain why them real genuine caucasians can recognize a "caucasian looking" joo ? because they pay attention to details other than skin and eyes color …
SOme joos look caucasians because they are biracials.
Their ancestors settled in europe waaaay after them caucasians and that's why they "look" caucasians, but if you pay close attention to their facial features you'll see that something is quite not caucasian…
Joos are in majority, racially speaking, of semite and kazari (central asia) extraction…
Joos will "look like" the native people hence you have "caucasian looking" joos, "arab looking" joos, "african looking joos" etc… etc… Bi racial unions is a key issue to them joos so they can infiltrate any country… btw them chinese settlers in Africa are applying the same strategy…
Right on. These joos you speak of are the ones from Revelation 3:9. God's people are black. Descended from Judah, so not all black people. But the ones "brought back to Egypt in ships" i.e. American slavery. (Deuteronomy 28:68).
Are we surprised?…Everybody knows that insecure Black people, are stoopid enough to pay for crap with some WORTHLESS assholes name on it, just so they can "feel", more important than they actually are!???? What assholes!…Kanye is selling cheap ass cotton T-shirts with holes in them, and Negroes are flocking to purchase that junk!….He's making a 10,000% profit, because he's paying some poor, underage slave in Bangladesh 50 cents a day, risk their lives, working in sweat shops, to make that crap! His clothes are cheap, poorly made, and has cheap cancer causing dyes that run, and get into your skin!….Don't complain now dummies, because Kanye has to make that ?for his Caucasian handlers!????? It was a running joke in the 80's, that people are dumb enough to buy jeans with holes already in them!…Think about it, dungarees (denim) is a cheap poor mans fabric! Coal miners wore them, and Negroes are paying an arm, and a leg for undershirts, and britches!??????? Aaaaaw the zombies are upset!✌
Couldn't agree more. People should have 'cottoned' on to Koonye long before now.
aw come ON! that behavior is not limited to black people. nor do black people buy his clothes. why are you clowning on them? Where are the clothes you wear from? the same clothes you wear from Bangladesh and china with f*cked up dyes and materials, made by cheap labor is still f*cking with your health, fertility, and mental function regardless of the price. invest in a loom and you will be part of the solution.
if you're stupid enough to buy it then kanye has the right to laugh all the way to the bank!
Well they spent their money, hyped up to buy his shit so they got what they wanted. As the classic saying goes-"you get what you pay for."
That's what they get for being sheep. Homeless chic is not fashionable. I raise my glass to Kanye for legally robbing these dumbass people.
@Ohso! Yep! I ain't mad at the player, or the game!…These people that he's robbing wouldn't invest in anything, of any value anyway! Fuck em!
YO! LISTEN UP! I GOT PROOF THAT T-SHIRT IS FAKE!!! GILDAN ARE EXCELLENT QUALITY T-SHIRTS! LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT T-SHIRT THAT KANYE IS SELLING, DO NOT BUY IT!

Kanye West is the worst businessman ever ! His marketing skills are as narrowed as his forehead …
"Fans lined up for hours to reportedly get only two minutes" -> amazing how people love to be treated like dog shit…
Too many people are so gullibe, it wasnt enough that the clothing is ugly as all get out… you actually went out and bought that cheap ass sh…. i got some land to sell you then ..
Kanye West is broke. Regardless of how expensive these rags are, he will not enrich himself. He has to sell this garbage en masse and that is not happening. Only a few idiots act all crazy to buy this stuff but there is NO consumer appeal. He is broke. The wife on the other hand is making fist over money. They all used his money to live the lifestyle and now the well is empty. This is when you dump him because they are not going to feed him to old age, not happening.
If he is broke, then why do all the women on this site rag day in and out about all his legacy money going to a Caucasian woman? I agree that Kim can buy and sell Kanye at this point, and while his stock continues to drop, hers and her family's wealth hasn't yet begun to peak. People think that that wack TV show is how they make money…lololol. That is hilarious.
They are paid to push everything under the sun to young girls. They have a license to print money at this point.
Laugh at me now, but remember this later: when K and K get divorced, whether it's next year or in 10 years, SHE will be the one paying.
Shiddd i'd be kickin him and pablos ass bout mine.
