• Kanye Clothing in the “Forever” Video

If you’ve ever seen the “Forever” music video that features Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem, several questions may have been running loosely through your head. Why is Lebron James the star of this video? Did Kanye really get the nod for the best verse? Is that Slaughterhouse behind Eminem? Why is Lebron James the star of this video? Despite such head-scratchers, it doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s quite a good song that not only displays 4 different rapping techniques, but also 4 different fashion styles. Complex has covered the fashion side of the music video, putting together individual outfits that resemble what Drake, Kanye, Lil Wayne, and Eminem wore in “Forever”.

• Nike Air Yeezy With Jordan 6 Sole

Several weeks back, Chi Mcbride and Mark Smith revealed the plans to auction off the original Nike Air Yeezy that Kanye West wore at the Grammy’s in 2008, labeled as the Grammy Air Yeezys. Now, the duo is back to reveal another 1 of 1 original pair that will also be on the auction block to support the Doernbecher Foundation. Up for grabs is an all black Nike Air Yeezy with an Air Jordan 6 sole. In the video below, Smith reveals that the sample was never even presented to Kanye during the production of the Air Yeezy shoe.

What does everyone think about the Air Yeezy with a Jordan 6 sole? I personally don’t like it, but that’s only because I’m a big fan of the Jordan 3 shoe and the final Air Yeezy implemented the Jordan 3 sole.

• Grammy Air Yeezys

Actor Chi Mcbride had a chance to sit down with the Creative Director of Jordan Brand, Mark Smith, to give details about the charity work between Nike and the the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital known as the Doernbecher Charity. To raise funds for the charity, Nike will auction off exclusive items, in which one of the items includes a Nike Air Yeezy sneaker. But not just any Air Yeezy, the original Air Yeezy. In the video, Chi Mcbride shows off the all black sample Nike Air Yeezy that Kanye wore at the 2008 Grammy Awards. The same exact pair that had blogs and everyone in the sneaker culture buzzing for months. If you ask me, the idea is great and is a win-win for both parties– the auction winner and the charity organization.

• Ibn Jasper and Don C Show LV Sneakers

Kanye West’s barber/style consultant, Ibn Jasper, and road manager, Don C, are almost always spotted with Kanye  out in the public. They’re always the other two guys that people can hardly identify in photos, but have the reputation of having as much sense of fashion as Kanye. This video shows Ibn and Don C lounging around Ibn’s home, just showing off their Louis Vuitton sneakers to the camera. They both appear to be like kids who just opened a gift underneath the Christmas tree as the clock struck midnight.  And trust me, every other individual would act the same way if they had a Louis Vuitton sneaker named after them–the Don’s and Jasper’s, both of which are unboxed by Don C in the video.

• Make Her Say Music Video Outfit

The music video for Kid Cudi’s Make Her Say, featuring Kanye West and Common, was released yesterday after much anticipation from many fans. The video was directed by Nez Khammal and features a horizontal split screen for more of an abstract illusion. Although the music video is actually pretty simple, the presence of these 3 artists and the overall message in the song is essentially what makes the video. Kanye’s shot took place in Los Angeles and wore the black flat-top Super sunglasses from RETROSUPERFUTURE, a green Army-like jacket, khaki pants (or khaki-colored denim), and wheat-colored 6″ Timberland boots.
