KANYE WEST + ALEXIS PHIFER = POPLUXE
Friday, July 27, 2007
PIC CREDITS: LAVISH MAGAZINE
Kanye is showing off his L.A. pad and fiancée, designer Alexis Phifer - in the August Issue of Harper’s Bazaar. On its pages, he talks about:
His style:
“It’s like …pop luxe. Pop and luxury. Everything about me is pop and luxury.”
“Alexis is my original stylist,” says West.”She helped me get fresh!”
Meeting his fiancée, Alexis Phifer:
Alexis was wearing Miss Sixtys. I had on this throwback jersey, and the first thing I said to her, because I could tell she was stylish, was ‘I don’t normally dress like this!’ ”
His favorite designer:
“I lived for Dior until Hedi Slimane left. So I’m gonna see what he comes out with.”
Claims that he’s cocky:
“I’m really shy. … Why do you think I’m so cocky? It overcomes it.”

I met Kanye as much as he is cocky he is a down to earth brother. Most of these rappers are not what they image portray. So its a breath of fresh air to see someone be true to there real self image like Kanye. He is one of kind.

>>>>> He does. Arrogance is a means for people to protect themselves. Don’t think for a second that Puffy and Jay-Z are confident about themselves and strong. The most humble people are generally the strongest and most confident ones, they don’t have to brag or inferiorize anyone cause their strength and confidence speak for themselves. I can tell you for sure that Common is a secure, confident and strong soul.

They are a fly ass couple! And Kanye knows damn well that he is cocky, I hope that was just sarcasm. “I don’t normally dress like this”, I wish sombody would try to step to me with that weak line. I would of been like ok who cares, but I guess 1st impressions are everything. It must of been an old Oilers throwback jersey or something.

Cocky? Yes. Goofy? Yes. Refreshing? Yes. Original? Yes. Trendsetter? Yes.
He might be arrogant as all get up but it is great to see a “rapper” that steps out of the box. Instead of wearing those baggy @ss jeans most of these idiot @ss rappers are doing…Kanye kept it fresh and funky…and got brah’s rocking sweaters and blazers in the morning and jeans and one’s in the evening. Gotta love the inventiveness.

Friday, July 27, 2007 /
ok..let me see…Kanye his hated because he brags a lot…
Interesting…
Almost every video I’ve had the chance of seeing in the hip-hop/ R and B circuit is a video of someone bragging. It could be women or men. I see diamonds being flashed; I see designer jeans; I see Louis Vuitton purses; I see high price cars. And if you don’t see these material items, you see a provocatively dress women bragging about her ass or looks.
So, really, if you don’t like Kanye, then you must hate the HipHop and R&B community..
My thing is, if you are going to bitch about one man, bitch about them all.

NO ONE on her knows what kanye does with his money or what kind of relationship he has with GOD. Just know that before you start runnin off @ the mouth about what he does with his money and how he should be humble. Kanye is cocky whenit comes to his music…He is an artist, he takes it serious because he’s good at it and is confident in what he does.

at #41- those may seem like just “stuffed animals” to you but if you knew anything about the “street/skate” culture youd know that those are called “toys” and there a big deal in street/skate culture,there mad expensive and usually made by two different companies that collaborate….anyways kane is pretty vital in making the skate culture blow up in the mainstream along with pharrell……anyways jus droppin a lil knowledge, its all G*

#48 Kanye is cocky whenit comes to his music…
Did you see his hizzy-fit in England or wherever he was when he didn’t when the best video award? He jumped up on stage and ranted on about the million he spent on his video. That was some ARROGANT chit! I don’t see other artists jumping on stage when they loose and demanding acknowlegement. He’s cocky and ungrateful; he was near death for crying out loud. Show some thankfullness in your life for once.

I agree with you 100% the whole rap and r&b game is about bragging about what they have and being cocky….I don’t understand either how they get so upset with kanye on here but don’t have a problem with T.I. who constantly says how he’s the best and how he’s a sex symbol….isn’t that just as cocky if anything he’s more cocky then Kanye but the women on this board never have a bad thing to say about the dude. Not hating cuz TI is my dude….I guess if you find someone attractive on here it’s okay to be arrogant and cocky…..Just a bunch of hyprocrits….
Kanye and his fiance have style and like fashion ain’t nothing wrong with dressing nice and caring about your appearance…

Pretty much all of what kanye produced since he started with the dynasty were BANGING ass beats. I would give a list but it aint that serious. I love music so I respect kanye in that aspect and I fully understand and can’t hate on him being cocky about his shit.
That boy almost died in 2002. He has a chance now to live life the way he wants just because it isnt the wasy you would, doesnt mean it aint right.

Doesn’t he know he’s being used as walking-talking advertisement for Alexis’ lack of style. She’s trying to start a fashion craze at his expense. A lot of times he looks like he just lost his mind.

I guess he could consider it a compliment to be considered “gay” by the way he dresses. I guess that means he has good taste in clothes– He’s cocky but he has a right to be– nobody believed in him and now hes like higher than god on a scale from 1 to 10..But what artist nowadays was “never believed in and told that he/she would never amount to anything” then BLAM a freakin superstar..meanwhile ppl like us are told that we a so special and we can do anything–yet we still work at Walmart-ihop-and Mcdonalds…damn it.. Will somebody NOT believe in me so i can get some dough? lol

Dang… I like Kanye…. but then I don’t… LOL! It’s weird, I like the fact that he say’s what’s on his mind ( when he said “GEORGE BUSH doesn’t care about black people”…. I was on the floor rolling), but then he also has a tendency to talk and say too much at the wrong times (like going up on stage when someone else has won the award and stealing their shine by making a speech about how his video was better) then you look at him like a d@mn fool. I don’t know, he needs to find a happy medium and stay there. It’s a thin line between CONFIDENCE and COCKINESS… I love a man that can dress (cause I can dress my @ss off)…. but then again those new white shades he has been seen around sportin’ has gosta go! LMAO!!
His fiance is good, because I could not listen to Kanye all day long…. whining and sh*t. He’s border line like a female. But I think Alexis might be the second coming of KIM PORTER (diddy’s ex). They said she already has a baby by a FOOTBALL player…. “now I ain’t sayin’ she’s a GOLDDIGGER, but she ain’t messing with no broke, no broke, no broke…” LOL!! But she’s FABULOUS none the less…. who am I kidding, she’s not the second coming of Kim…. hell, at least she got an ENGAGEMENT RING. LOL!!

Kanye is most definitley full of himself. His office looks silly as hell. I don’t care how much they cost….stuffed animals are for children.
I appreciate a man that dresses well but Kanye’s style just doesn’t do it for me. Just b/c someone can afford expensive clothes doesn’t mean that they know how to rock them. If someone is truly stylish they can rock anything and make it look hot. It’s funny that Alexis is the “stylish” one b/c she just started dressing nice.

Kanye can be cocky if he wants to. We all know he got a lil problem, it’s cool.
But this celebrity status by association is very annoying. I never needed to know his main chicks’ first and last name. Let alone those tired “I wanna be a model someone please notice me” poses she trowin on us. I’m not trying 2 hate, I just wish some celebs would keep thier
business 2 themselves.
WIth that said, nice to see Kanye lovin on a sista. I was for sure he like white meat,
lol.

love his style. guys who call his clothing gay or too metrosexual are just ignorant. he’s in style right now unlike most other rappers who still think that wearing their pants below their ass is cute. they need to grow up. and i agree with the person who said that it’s hypocritical to be a fan of mainstream hip-hop and to criticize kanye at the same time for his cockiness. yes, the guys is cocky. but so is 50, T.I., Jay, etc. when Pac was alive, he was extremely cocky as well. that’s the hip-hop personality so don’t support those other artists and then talk about kanye especially when he’s more talented that most guys int he game right now

Honey bunches of oats!! Y R U HATING? All I’m saying is if the Pictures were of Kanye and some other chick, you all would write nasty things, if they were pictures of Kanye drunk you would write nasty things. The man can’t even stand in his freakin’ apartment w/o someone having something to say. Just think for a second…
Here is a Black man who put Jesus in his rap, then made a song dedicated to his mother. Now he is really baring it all with a spread with him and his wifey-2-b. He hasn’t been arrested. He has been busted for drugs… I mean can he get a hand clap a head nod or sumtin? Please pump the breaks on the hating… it is so contagious

@102 Hell no he can’t get a hand clap. He can get a face slap for putting his girlfriend, main chick, wifey to be on the cover of HARPER’s BAZAAR like I’m supposed to know who she is.
I have no problem with KWest. I actually like him. But I resent it when folks become celbs for no reason. I am not hating, I’m annoyed. Please make it stop.

I just left Wal-Mart and read the entire story in the magazine.. Alexis seems very full of herself–talking about “I always have a designer bag even when I go to the office..the leopard print Balengia (sp?) is my fav”..blah blah blah. I think she’s really pretty, but she knows damn well she STOLE Kanye from Sumeke Rainey.
Kanye ain’t shy…nucca please. You said “George Bush Don’t Like Black People” on national tv.
And if Alexis is Kanye’s stylist…..she needs to make sure he doesn’t show the chest hairs any longer. Alexis, did you pic out those Star Trek glasses for him?

Lol@ #106! And #102 that shit just struck a funny bone or something. The whole time I was reading your post,I was picturing the black lady with the plastic cap on her head from the Honey Bunches of Oats commercial typing it. Ha!
Anyway K West is all right. His music is nice and he actually has some positive messages and good beats. That’s a tough combo. Plus he reps the CHI pretty nice. He could take some Ridlin erry now and then, but hey, how many times have we all gone a little nuts sometimes. It’s just when he does it becomes national news. I’d much rather hear him then Mr. Mumbles 50 Cent talking about sliding panties to the side and bumpy rides. That shit is played.

Ok, so did they do two different covers??? I do live in Dallas, where she is from, however, I was very disappointed!! I can not stand her!!! She’s famous for being a ditzy, white girl with big boobs!! What is up?

I think that its great their together. that she helped him step beyond the stereotypical rapper bs. he wouldnt be who he was today without her help. 4real. he wouldnt have lines like “If the Devil wear Prada, Adam Eve wear Nada, I’m somewhere in between, but way more fresher!!!!!”
its non-sensical but hot.

I like Kanye’s style and I am happy that he can dress for a guy because he did help a lot of these young guys realize that they need to step their fashion game up, however, talking about only that all that time gets annoying…I could give a fuck less if somebody spends $3000 on a pair of jeans, which I think is stupid by the way, but hey, they’re not wasting my money…

hip-hop incorporated the art of braggadocio and storytelling since long before half of these 80’s babies were born. i can’t hate kanye for doing what he does. he rhymes tight; he dresses decent. i could say he hangs a bit too much on them labels, but he, like i can say about many librans i know, are more so an insecure bunch than any other group. anyhow, he’s still within the [hip-hop] game limits. (note: that eye candy game is ill.)

I love Kanye, his music is always on point and there is nothing wrong with looking good. Would you rather have a man looking bummy? Exactly, appreciate the fact that he takes pride in making sure he looks fresh. && I don’t see him as cocky. Kanye knows he makes good music, he’s doing nothing but defending that. TI did the same thing with the ‘best rap album’ saying he deserved it more than Luda, nobody had a problem with that so why should you with Kanye? Anyways him && his lady look fly in the magazine.

I like the fact that Kanye is bringing something different to the table, but I cant stand his a**. My friend met him in person and said she was honored to meet him. This chocolate keebler elf looking bastard shot back a stank look and said “well im not honored”. It can all come crashing down anytime Kanye, remember that.

Kanye is not corny. People think in order to be fly you have to dress, look and do what everyone else does. Kanye is a leader not a follower because he is different and do don’t try to be like these other thug rappers. I can tell you who is corny FIDDY CENT!

I used to love Kanye. Being from Chicago, I heard his stuff before it became big nationally. His rhymes used to be more about the inequalities and hypocrites that surround us…and now they’re about how hot he is, how everyone hates him, blah blah blah.
What really turned me off to him though, was this quote:
“IF IT WEREN’T FOR RACE MIXING THERE’D BE NO VIDEO GIRLS. ME AND MOST OF OUR FRIENDS LIKE MUTTS A LOT. YEAH, IN THE HOOD THEY CALL `EM MUTTS.”
Really, Kanye? Your middle class hood? Your English prof. Mom encouraged that? Why don’t you come and speak that RACIST BULLSHIT to my niece’s face?

Kanye West is perhaps one of the most original, thought provoking artists of his time. I believe that Kanye is a lot of the reason why intelligent people are interested in Hip - Hop again. The brother has a way with words that makes you really think even, if you only end up a little confused. The best thing about him is that he is original, he is not trying to be anyone else nor does have to make an effort to distinguish himself rom other artists, he simply is different. Yes he has said a few things that I have found obnoxious or even offensive but I appreciate the fact that he attempts to be a complete artist. It does not hurt that he is sexy either.

Weel, I had to leave another comment. No one said cause how he dresses he is gay. My gaydar just happens to go off when I see him or hear about him. I dont see a “near death” experience giving you the right to be cocky. I was part of OIF getting shot at, and I’m not cocky. Like I have mentioned tamborine. Two Dl men dating stylists! Please, the better the styling sense.

Kanye style of dress is creative.I’m not exactly feeling it but its different and its good to have a unique style in an industry oversaturated by everyone following trends rather than setting trends! I personally find him to be arrogant and self absorbed ,but so are alot of of celebs. He does need to get his head out theclouds a bit and quit acting like his shyt doesnt stank because it does and BAD! He has a habit of making inappropraite comments.

For the dumb ass hood people who constantly hate - watch devil wears prada. All of yall act like you dont want fly shyt. The stronger video gona have everyone and there momas rockin sleeveless jeans jackets this fall. Yall act like Rkelly didnt have uglier shades in his flirt video. Atlest Kanye put some thought into his shyt he could have been in the source with a fat booty ho callin black women bitches. Yo damned if you do and you damned if you don’t. Smarten up open the market up. How else did he make it to Princess Dianas concert? I know Common and John legend appreciates him. STOP HATIN

TT Said:
“Cocky? Yes. Goofy? Yes. Refreshing? Yes. Original? Yes. Trendsetter? Yes.
He might be arrogant as all get up but it is great to see a “rapper” that steps out of the box. Instead of wearing those baggy @ss jeans most of these idiot @ss rappers are doing…Kanye kept it fresh and funky…and got brah’s rocking sweaters and blazers in the morning and jeans and one’s in the evening. Gotta love the inventiveness.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Co-sign!!! Kanye irritates me with his high maintenance ass! But i also like him in that, even as he can sometimes get on anyones nerves with his arrogant ‘me want designer’ spoilt ass, he DARES to be diff, to ‘think outside the box’ as TT put it and stick with it no matter what. Nothing like the sheep rest of the bunch.Most of the time, its refreshing en takes some guts so yeah—gotta love it . Pretty cool.

And Alexis, I’ve seen dozens of pics of her–that chick is FLY! What’s so funny is that her style seems effortless.
I think they’re a match made in Haute Heaven!

Alexis is the hottest thing about Kayne (yes I intentionally spelled it wrong). Unfortunately, i saw him a few years ago perform at a grammy breakfast, he sang a song about his mama. He had WACK JUICE DRIPPIN then, like he’s oozing WACK JUICE now.
So, some people have it! (alexis p)

Can’t a brotha and sista in the spotlight be together because they actually love one another? Stop passing judgement like you know them. She has her own life outside of Kayne.. and yes I know this because, unlike some of you, I actually really know Alexis, since birth. I never post comments on boards but I just couldn’t help myself…this time. THANK YOU
