You know it’s gonna be an exciting year when Ye gets back to social media. Love or hate him, the ever-controversial artist has a huge following and a solid fashion influence. And in 2025, it seems like the rapper is back with some more shenanigans and shoes up his sleeve. From throwing a tantrum on social media (again), to announcing two new upcoming silhouettes, there’s a lot to unpack here. So, let’s dive into it and find out what this is all about, shall we?
Ye Is Back, Fires Shots, and… Sells Products for $20?
After taking to Instagram to fire shots at Adidas once again, Ye is doing what he promised his fans years ago. You see, the artist just dropped his newest YZY collection on YZY SPLY, and any item retails for $20! Now, in true Ye fashion, the whole capsule is minimalistic as heck. From t-shirts to hoodies, jackets, and socks, they’re all pretty simple. But among the collection, you can find the SL-01. This slipper reminds us a lot of the Yeezy Slides that we all love. And the best thing is, these babies also retail for $20!
The coolest thing about this drop is that, according to Ye, it generated over $3 million in just one day. If that doesn’t speak volumes of the kind of influence he has, we don’t know what will. Now, this is not the only footwear that we heard about. You see, rumor has it that there will be a new bully on the block. The BL-01, aka, The Bullys, are apparently coming soon. They’re pretty chunky and simple, featuring a mesh and nubuck upper that sits on a rippled outsole. But the interesting thing about them is that they seem to also be slip-ons. So who knows? This could be the year’s trend!
What Do People Think About This Whole Movement?
Well, fans are definitely glad to be able to score Ye-coded items for such a lot retail price. However, other people just feel that these designs are lazy and boring. And while neither is completely wrong, we can’t but respect the hustle! At this point, it seems like whatever Ye drops, it sells. Now, if you’re looking for a way to make money, you might wanna look into side hustles! And one of the best ones is currently sneaker reselling. So, make sure you know what it takes to become a reseller and go for it. Godspeed!
