• Kanye West Arrested

Now I am sure most of you have heard the news that Kanye West, along with his road manager, Don C, were arrested during the early morning of Thursday, 9/11, at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), for vandalizing cameras that belonged to several members of the paparazzi. I am not going to touch on the subject any further because that is not what this blog is about. This blog is about fashion, Kanye’s music, and good vibes. If you’re interested in all the drama, please read about it at the other blogs that have been doing stories on it. However, I will keep my focus and talk about the fashion that was worn during this unfortunate altercation (photographs courtesy of TMZ).

• Kanye West - Love Lockdown

The studio version for Kanye West’s Love Lockdown can be listened to on Kanye’s official blog, click HERE. Kanye seems lost during the chorus in the studio version–a lot of muttering. I personally like the live VMA version better, but we’ll see how this turns out once it hits the CD.

• Fashionable Lyrics

Over the past few weeks I have been receiving a good amount of e-mails (hang tight, beloved readers, I will try to respond as promptly as I can) from readers asking about the brands that Kanye West wears and if I can possibly identify certain articles of clothing he is wearing in specific photographs. Now, I don’t mind doing so because that is the reason for the existence of the web site, but believe it or not, there is another way to discover the brands that Kanye West wears–just listen to his lyrics. Here are a few good ones:

“Awesome, the Christian in Christian Dior” (Stronger)

“So go ahead, go nuts, go ape shit/Especially in my Pastelle or my Bape shit” (Stronger)
