Hatful of Hollow is sort of my personal blog where I just write weekly things I’ve been following. This is the second entry. It’s for paying members only.
Kanye West in the news
Someone recently told me there is a surprisingly large amount of devotion to Kanye West in my writings, both online and in my book. It’s true. I love the man. So when I hear that he’s making something for The Gap, my ears perk up. In “Inside the Making of Yeezy Gap” at the NYT, I learn that his partnership with the mass market apparel company, though, has not gone well. Who would’ve predicted that Kanye West of all people, though, would be unable to meet deadlines? Entire production lines abandoned?

I did learn that Kanye prefers to communicate by text like me and since I also regularly miss deadlines and definitely have too many things going on, maybe I also am a creative genius? Bummed the $300 catsuit only comes in female.
All in jest, I probably will find something in this collection I buy and wear constantly.
