You may have disowned your first album but all the true fans still consider it to be a real banger. :rock:

I lost my virginity during the 30 minute closing instrumental, “Grandma’s Paintbrush”, and I know I’m not the only one here.

Also he did put up an opera in 2019 about a Babylonian king who is most famous for massacring and enslaving Jewish people. The plot of his opera is how the king became a true Christian ruler.

Ignoring their popularity and matters of taste, are the yeezy’s actually “good” shoes? Like, good support, good airflow, durable, etc.? They look like poo poo imo and like they’d rip in half after a month of wear, but they are so expensive that I feel like maybe I’m missing something besides “they are cool”

Yeah they're a real sneakerhead shoe imo, this is gonna make me sound like I'm a million years old but also at the same time an incredibly stupid young person; but the best pair of shoes I've ever bought are a $185 pair of chucks from the 1980s that were already worn and broken in. The canvas feels like it doesnt even exist, that's how supple it is. Perfect for moshing and weightlifting.

I'm going to chalk it up to Kanye just not doing the research.

The most popular model from his line uses an adidas proprietary foam called Boost for the sole that is extremely comfortable. Adidas uses boost foam in a lot of other models of shoes that aren’t on the Kanye line though so aside from being popular with teenagers and having the veneer of limited release, they don’t have anything about them that makes them actually Better than other adidas models with a knit upper (Ultraboost, NMD, to name a few). I have always found them to look like orthotics but they definitely look better in person and on specific body types and styles of clothing (skinny jeans or joggers)
