Kanye West is standing ten toes down on the fashion empire he built, noting that no other company can bring out as many people as Yeezy can to a show.
On Monday (Aug. 17), Ye hit X to tout the reach of his brand, claiming that no matter how big another company may be, “there’s no brand other than Yeezy that can bring out 120,000 people a night.”
The statement is the latest in a series of big declarations from Ye about Yeezy’s place in the fashion world. Just days earlier, he compared the brand to Apple, writing that “Yeezy is Apple of clothing.”
His comments arrive as Yeezy just made a return to traditional retail. After spending the last four years largely absent from physical stores, the brand returned through JD Stores this month with the release of its YZY Slides. This is a major milestone for Yeezy following the split from Adidas in 2022, which brought its retail distribution to an end.
