The Presidential Fashionisto
Barack Obama, Kanye West, News, Random Ridiculousness
Posted by Bossip Staff
Your boy Kanye is back talkin’ ish again:
Just when you thought his head couldn’t get any bigger Kanye West has surpassed himself with an outstanding display of arrogance. The rapper has been mouthing off about his new passion for fashion. And, true to form, Kanye is aiming high — offering to dress the US President-elect Barack Obama.
He said: “I could design something for Obama to go to the club in. “But I don’t know if I’m ready for suits and stuff.” He added: “Fashion is just my love. It’s something that I want to do for the rest of my life. “I picked my own outfit out in kindergarten.” So did I — Spider-Man, Batman or the Scotland football strip. But that doesn’t give me the qualifications to dress Gordon Brown, Mr West…
Damn, this cat actually thinks he can outfit Barack. We guess Kanye’s unaware of the fact that the last thing on Obama’s mind these days is getting his club on. Yeezy needs to get his ego in check, post haste.

I am sorry but he is really starting to get on my nerves. He’s talented but extremely egomaniacal and thinks the world should kiss the ground he walks on. And I do give him his props on the outfit but he really needs to do something with that 1980s Levar Burton haircut!

I don’t want my president *****ociated with the likes of people like Kanye. Yeah I listen to this brotha’s music, but its only on my dumb-it-down days and I’m not gonna be the one to say I agree with his lifestyle and ridiculously unprofessional behaviors that take place every other day.
Obama should be dressed by a black designer or an Asian designer, or a Hawaiian designer…he’s not exclusively black.

Obama is a married man, and a politician. Soon to be the President of the United States…I wonder why they call it United? What’s united about the states? I doubt it if anyone would ever see him in a club sportin kanYE geer conversating with ‘common folk,’ or partying in sungl*****es with a brand name on his scarf like some pubescent tween.’ Try something different it may surprise you.

Kanye is a fashion misfit. The ***** kanye wears and how much he spends on that ***** goes to show how this ***** dont know ***** about fashion. ***** if I’m spending that type of bread on clothes I’m gone kill it. Ye be wearing $3500 peacoats but some how he coming out looking like a clown. Look at old photos of blackfolks in the 30s and 40s mu*****as was clean that fashion is timeless.*****s is supposed to know how to get clean.

ALL OF YOU NEED TO STOP HATING ON KANYE. THIS DUDE IS ONE OF THE BEST DRESSED CELEBRITIES IF NOT THE BEST. PEOPLE ACTUALLY JACK HIS SWAG! SO NONE OF YOU SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT HOW MY DUDE CANT DRESS WHEN YOU ALL KNOW YOU WENT AND COPPED FITTED JEANS AND SHUTTER SHADES JUST SO YOUR ***** WOULDN’T BE WACK. OBAMA ISN’T A BAD DRESSER ON HIS OWN….AND IF KANYE THINKS HE COULD DO HIM A SERVICE BY DESIGNING CLOTHES FOR HIM THEN ALL THE POWER TO HIM. I HATE IT HOW IN LIFE…WHENEVER PEOPLE HAVE DREAMS AND ASPIRATIONS PEOPLE TRY TO SHOOT YOU DOWN BECAUSE THEY CAN’T FATHOM THOSE SAME DREAMS. ***** Y’ALL. KANYE IS THE *****….STOP HATING PEOPLE…EMBRACE PEOPLE’S DREAMS AND STFU AND JUST CHILL. PEACE. HOLD IT DOWN YE’. T-DOT STAND UP.

@Roosevelt Taylor,
You are so right brother Kanye’s style is not only suspect but it’s so wack. Real *****s would not wear that dumb ***** out in public. Diddy, Jamie Foxx, Will Smith, Akon those *****s have style. They ***** is always in check. You walk through the hood in what Kanye wears, and you’re liable to get your face *****ed off. Barack doesn’t need any fashion tips from his *****…..just let the brother run the country that’s it. No is not the time for looking fly….he’s got work to do.

A man, can’t wait to get crackin’ on that 2009 joint! We bombing *****s real hard this time cousin, on top of they big ***** heads, ha, haha, ha…
Grammy night we messed up and yo shorty from Paris still blowing up my iPhone *****? Crazy! She say want to pay for me to return all expenses inclusive, wow! Plus she like shopping too, same like me except she’s loaded, gives GOOD head, where’s stockings and knee highs on that innocent ***** and pays for everything. Typical daddy’s girl. her pops is loaded, he like a brain surgeon or someting over there. When we were in Paris she picked me up in that new AMG Benz late night at Hotel Concorde Montparn*****e
Thanks again for Paris and the trip to London.

Fo all you captain save a ye’s slap yo selves. I dont think the ***** know ***** about fashion and I think pastelle is gone flop I hope it do good but we will see one thing about fashion it gotta be effortless ye try to hard. And he take too many chances. Fashion styles repeat themselves but some dont work now and never did work. For instance brothers getting those lines in their hair big no no why did he try to bring that back. And I cant get over that ***** he be wearing showing his chest like that. Rock versace silks over silk v-necks. ***** wear some under clothes and as far as a suit goes get that thang tailored up but ***** cover up yo chest my nig.

The dressing up Barack obama for the club bit is hilarious..SMH..Yea am sure that’s just the thing on his mind after becoming president..somewhere between figuring out the messed up economy n all the other issues going on with the rest of the world…club hopping is what concerns Barack the most!!lol
honestly i like kanye cuz his music is genius!i think the whole ego thing is a publicity stunt for him to be all controversial and stay in the public eye and increase his exposure..again, very smart..but you dont really need to do that YE..if you deliver..good music or fashion..youll get to people regardless!

12/25/08, 09:57:am
Yall act like it’s hard to dress obama or sum *****..he wear the same type of suits EVERY other president has worn..It aint like barack be wearin suits like steve harvey or somethin…***** I could dress barack..
talkin loud and sayin nothing
12/25/08, 13:46:pm
Kanye is a good if not great rapper, but that is where it ends! You cannot just decide that you are now a fashion expert and wala! Go STF Down

i think its ridiculous that these singers seem to think that because they have an ok dress sense then they qualify to become a designer!!
People actually study design at university and work very hard. Its people like j.lo and the rest who give fashion design a bad name.
Its not for everybody and i highly doubt that people will actually aknowledge him away from his image as a fashionable rapper. Stick to the day job kanye.
