Kanye West gets retail stores and sportswear line via expanded Adidas partnership Nikon’s full-frame mirrorless is coming August 23 - here’s what we know so far I used cloud gaming exclusively for a month. With Kanye adding five more songs to The Life of Pablo‘s final track list and promising to release the album later today, we’ll soon all be able to live life like Pablo. While Kanye did not build Madison Square Garden, watching this grand spectacle for an Adidas apparel line and an album, paid for by the world’s second-largest sportswear manufacturer, almost seemed to prove he commanded similar reverence as Escobar. Mexican drug lord Pablo Escobar was so powerful in Columbia that in 1991 the Columbian government allowed him to have the prison in which he was to serve a five-year prison sentence built to his specifications. But once he passed the cable connecting the sound system to the numerous people in his entourage, the grand spectacle quickly devolved into a bland house party. Near the end, Kanye went into an expected rant about how hard it was do get this event done before thanking Adidas for footing the bill and making his grand proclamation seem a bit meager in comparison. The models staring emotionless around the arena were mirrored by the crowd at large as he sang the lyrics “ If I fuck this model | And she just bleached her asshole | And I get bleach on my T-shirt | I’ma feel like an asshole.” There were moments of disjointed energy due to the structure of the show. Rules for the #YeezySeason3 performers… /5uktmiTHoU
Yeezus may just have given Adidas a few thousand new disciples. The strangest moment was the “F*&k Nike” chant that reverberated throughout the arena. At one point, Kanye even directed the crowd to say “amen” to the Kardashian family, which inspired a chorus of subtle boos. The Kardashian clan, along with Caitlin Jenner, was dressed in all white outfits from Kanye’s new Adidas line, and stuck out like sore thumbs sitting among the crowd. Gospel legends Kirk Franklin and Kelly Price lent vocals to the song, which elicited one of the biggest rounds of applause in the show.Īt this moment, a man sitting next to me looked at the woman he was with and uttered, “is this real?”
So, Yeezus proved he can make miracles happen.ĭecked in a red long-sleeved shirt from his collection (being sold for $90), Kanye stationed himself on the far right behind his laptop, guiding the congregation through the album in front of a large sheet that blanketed the stage. Eventually, the sheet was removed, revealing a smattering of statuesque models, as the sounds of a choir chanting acapella on album intro Ultra Beam Light filled the arena. Kanye isn’t proclaiming he’s a god, but he does compare himself and wife Kim Kardashian to Saint Joseph and the Virgin Mary meeting in the club on the crowd favorite Wolves. To the entire crowd’s surprise, Frank Ocean came out of his self-induced exile since his classic 2012 debut album Channel, Orange to sing on the song’s outro. The religious overtones framed the message of a few songs from The Life of Pablo more than they defined the entire album, as with Yeezus.
