You know,you guys are designers,you can put it all together at the end of the night.Or just feel free to talk shit.It's good to have someone to talk shit about.You know everyone is like I just don’t want people to talk shit about me.I don't give a fuck."So we were there at Fendi and we were putting together ideas and I didn't realize right then,right before that,they had taken Silvia [Venturini Fendi] off of [designing] men's and then they went and hired out one of those licensing companies or something that just sews the F's on the back of the DIYdress.co.uk Reviews jeans.And I'm over there trying to give these guys what I considered to be real ideas and forward ideas and the creative director — you cannot believe.This guy really thought he was like Raf [Simons].He had this one like little room with some vintage samples and had some people on the computer making the most shit ideas you've ever seen.And it was just to fill up the stores because Silvia was no longer the men's [designer] and,you know,we played loud music in the office and ended up getting kicked out and stuff."And I went to Hawaii and took all the creative energy that I wanted to express and put it into an album called 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.' But at the same time,we would still design and it was a company that I was working with at that time [Nike] — that I won't use their name — but they would come down.We were working on our second shoe and I would have these stacks and stacks of manga magazines and architectural magazines and just fashion DIY Dress Feedbacks & Complaints magazines,trying to soak in as much information...we're playing like [Stanely] Kubrick and [Alejandro] Jodorowsky on the screen,and we have all these rules about what people can do in the studio.And I'm constantly concerned about what I'm wearing but it's hard to really get fresh in Hawaii because you can't like layer up and everything."We end up dropping 'Dark Fantasy' and me and Jay Z come up with this idea to do a mix tape and that turns into a group album,which turned into 'Watch the Throne.' And I remember always going back to the fashion shows,not because I wanted to be seen in some really expensive rapper jacket that I just bought,it was because I cared so much about seeing the artist express themselves to the maximum,seeing their complete vision.If it's 60 looks,if it's 80 looks,I want to see,I want to be at that Real Customer Reviews show.I was at the [spring 2008 Alexander] McQueen show that he dedicated to his muse [Isabella Blow] that had the wings and everything.I snuck in,they didn't let me in because I was a celebrity and he was kind of disappointed when he saw me,like I thought I said no celebrities [inaudble].
