wasn't Kanye already calling himself the Louis Vuitton Don back then ? maybe even before then.
with more money, his taste changed..then saw how big and influence he has and then tried to be more original/trendsetting.
i'm not even trying to jump to his defence like that but do you want him to wear the same sort of stuff he wore ten years ago now as well as make the same type of music he made ten years ago ? (you already have J Cole to give you that flavorless microwave version of music that Kanye could have made in his sleep)
damn . . John Mayer sounds and looks like the archetypal privileged douchebag
he really does..he looks/sounds like a character that should be on Saved By The Bell or The OC taking Zack or Seth's girls from them and being smug as hell about it.
