But with my ego, I can stand there with a speedo
And still be looked at like a fucking hero...
-Kanye West "The Glory"
Who better than Kanye himself to tell us all that he agrees with me. Say what you will about the man: Conceited, Narcissistic, Vain, etc etc; but he backs it up in every way possible. He's the hit machine producer turned international superstar rapper, and he's rewritten the definition of what it is to be a fashion icon. He never looks bad for any occasion, but is never afraid to take a risk. His influence on the fashion of our generation can be seen from scene kids in the suburbs to inner city minorities. Let's take a look at some various examples...
From the red carpet, to the stage, to the block, rarely does he seem out of place. He's got an incredible eye for what looks good and most importantly, he doesn't give a shit what you think about him. Perhaps the best indicator of what I'm talking about is 2 years ago at a Stella McCartney fashion show, Kanye rocked the blood red LRG Dead Serious hoody a few months before it even dropped (pictured below). In the next few days the internet was flooded with people looking to find out where they could get their hands on one. When you can show up to someone elses fashion show and steal the show just by wearing a hoody in the audience, you are officially a fashion icon in my book. Kudos Mr. West, keep doing your thing.
