Ladies and
gentlemen, be prepared to be amazed, maybe even in awe. Rapper Kanye West has
designed a t-shirt that may very well revolutionize the clothing industry.
That’s right: It’s the Kanye West t-shirt with a plain white design.
Yeezus
posted the “new” design online, and his masterful creation of nothingness
quickly sold out. What’s most amazing is the t-shirt’s $120 price tag.
So
what does one get for a plain white t-shirt designed by Kanye West? Here’s the
description:
“Very loose T-shirt in Egyptian cotton. Short sleeves. Ribbing
at neckline. Reinforced neckline and shoulders. ‘A.P.C. KANYE’ silkscreened
inside neckline”.
To
put the t-shirt into perspective, Kanye West just
sold a $.50 t-shirt to a bunch of fashion crazed wannabes for a profit of about
$120.
But
how could anyone pass up the chance to own a plain white Kanye West t-shirt
that has his name screen-printed on the inside of the neck.
Don’t
worry if you missed your chance to buy the shirt, you can still pre-order his
$265 blue jeans or a $250 short-sleeve hoodie.
You
know when you walk into an art gallery and there is a plain white canvas with a
very subtle off-white line running down the middle and the painting costs
$100,000. That painting is Kanye West’s new plain white t-shirt.
With
that being said, I have to applause Kanye West; he didn’t even have to come up
with some BS reason for the plain white t-shirt. He could have taken the artist
approach by claiming it was a statement on whitewashing or something else
involving the color white. Instead Kanye just said, “hey my name is on this and
its made out of that rare material known as cotton.”
