Kanye West’s Next Gig … Design An Amusement Park + Peep the New Air Yeezy II’s
Wondering what Kanye Omari West’s next business adventure is? The 34-year-old is planning to put his baby toe in the amusement park industry (sorta). During the Cannes Film Festival, he shared:
“I want to work on cities…I want to work on amusement parks, I want to change entertainment experiences or life.”
According to reports, he plans to do this with his design company, DONDA. And in non-amusement park news, compliments of Rap-Fix, we’ve gor a sneak-peak of the new, Air Yeezy II sneakers that hit stores June 9th.
Nike describes the shoe as,
“An obsessive approach to materials results in a luxurious mix of leather, rugged ballistic nylon, and soft nubuck. Concealed but opulent details reference ancient civilizations, including a loop strap with hieroglyphics that spell out ‘YZY.’ Each screw on lace aglet is obelisk shaped, and the anaconda texture is echoed on the eyelets and leather lace toggle that carries the Roman numeral ‘II.’
Both the Platinum and Black editions will be available at select retailers, in limited quantities.
