Nice one Gosha
It’s been a wild ride since Kanye reactivated his Twitter. He started strong, accusing Nike of copying a Yeezys design before progressing to a stream of consciousness that may now form the basis of a philosophical text.

Turns out the design is actually just the words ‘Saint West’ written in a font available for free download on dafont.com.
Art Dystopia is licensed as “100% Free” on the website – meaning that literally anyone can get their own designer tat – and is classified as a “Fantasy horror” font. We’ve cut the two together so you can compare.
One only hopes Kanye got mates’ rates.
Having previously been noted for disjointed but powerful outbursts on Twitter, West deactivated his profile, as well as his Instagram, just under a year ago in May 2017. He’s back now and I for one am enjoying it.
Sadly Yeezus never asked JOE for a custom neck tattoo design, but if he did…
