    If you think Ye doesn’t have complete control over this you might be lost.

    Of course it’s not gonna be as expensive as YS. But it’s the closest thing to everyone realistically getting Yeezy. Average person never cared about the line before and never considered getting it

    They talking about a billion annually this ain’t just youth s***. The shoe line brings in a billi annually already. It doesn’t matter anymore about GAP specifically. Once people see Kanye clothes in any store they’re checking it out

    Going to be wild to walk in to a Gap store and see pictures of Kanye and 'YZY' everywhere

    West’s compensation will be tied to sales and his business will earn royalties and potential equity under the terms of the deal. West, who worked at a Gap store as a teenager in Chicago, will also have input on presentation in stores and the e-commerce website.

    Kanye about to get paid

    Dude what’s Ye’s salary gonna be in a few years

    He might really get to do all those projects he wants fully on his own now

    I'm interested in this, nice to see him step away from sportswear brands

    This is dope, but also 10 year feels like too long for a deal

    A 2-3 year deal would've been dope and successful
    which would allow YZY to do more collabs with brands

    Same way Supreme does

    Average people are f***ing a******s who would rather profit off the exploitation of children in Bangladesh instead of thrifting. Cheap ye right now means someone is getting hurt.

    I remember the streams of consciousness he had about GAP. It's great to see him manifest this. Never doubt Ye

    GAP isn’t gaining rights to the Yeezy brand or anything, in fact it’s the opposite. As the deal progresses, Yeezy will probably continue branching out

    Listen to Spaceship

    I know about Spaceship ofc, I meant specifically about his fashion aspirations

    "I’d like to be the Steve Jobs of the Gap,” he told Style.com in 2015. “I’m not talking about a capsule. I’m talking about full Hedi Slimane creative control of the Gap."

    Found this one. I think there's other ones too. I remember one about wanting Yeezy to bridge the Gap (pun intended) and make high fashion available to all

    This isn’t a regular celebrity collab that a start does its a two brand partnership.

    Kanye’s adidas deal was 10 years too. Kanye wants to build with the company. Brands like Supreme just do quick collabs for trends and then move on but with this Kanye can generate billions and gain some equity in GAP. This is endlessly better and he can still form partnerships with other brands whenever he wants

    This isn't an exclusive apparel deal its just another partnership for Yeezy
