"You can’t ignore the fact that one his biggest complaints this whole time was that he wasn’t allowed to price the items."

@YeahhWhaatever said:
"The past 4 years ye been trying to make stuff for $20, that was the reasoning behind leaving the Yeezy Gap collaboration, Adidas, and the Balenciaga collab, he was trying to make shoes and clothes $20 but they didn’t agree with the price point hence why he was mad, now he’s free."
