Kanye West is a breakthrough. He has broken the mould that had formed within black music whereby to be cool you had to carry guns, deal drugs, pimp 'hoes' and drive cars 'rollin on 20's' etc. I love the fact that Kanye's confidence allows him to effectively mock this way of life, both through his lyrics and through his fashion sense. As he said on the Friday Night Project, "I wear clothes that fit". He then went on to analyse his outfit, revealing that the majority of his clothes were Dior, and not just the usual hip-hop makes such as Fubu, Echo, etc. By combining styles associated with different music genres (indie ad hip-hop), he has created his own unique style, that only separates him further from the competition.
