And, we know he's taking over the headlines right now. It's easy to see why. The media has called him everything, from good to bad, and let's not shy away from the truth. He loves exposure. But, in this episode, we're not looking into that whole drama. Instead, we're diving into how Kanye's obsession led him to become a billionaire mogul in the fashion industry. In August 2019, Kanye West appeared on the cover of Forbes magazine, and the world was ecstatic. Gracing the cover of Forbes magazine isn't easy. But Kanye wasn't happy. Instead, he was actually quite angry. After the article came out, Kanye went on a Twitter frenzy. He called the editor a white supremacist who snubbed him and avoided the truth. The reason for this tantrum? The magazine didn't call him a billionaire. -- 0:00 Kanye West - Intro 0:50 Kanye West - An obsession 2:50 Kanye West -The failed ventures into fashion 5:08 Kanye West - Hit the ground running 6:26 Kanye West - Bailouts, Zuckerberg and Wintour 8:02 Kanye West - Counting the billions -- Follow Caya: https://twitter.com/cayahere https://instagram.com/caya_here Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5-star for new episodes.
