On a 91-tweet rant Kanye West surely got a lot off his chest...touching on the Grammy’s, his passion for fashion and his plan to start-up a new design company.
He’ll call it Donda, after his late mom.
According to the tweets the company would be a team of experts including video game designers, tech guys, bankers, scientists and lawyers. This is what he tweeted about Donda:
“DONDA is a design company which will galvanize amazing thinkers and put them in a creative space to bounce there dreams and ideas…”
“I want to put creatives in a room together with like minds that are all waaaay doper than me”
Even though Kanye left us with a lot of tweets to decipher, people are still confused about what exactly his Donda company will accomplish. Here’s Pop Dust’s sarcastic take:
“...[it’s] an entity that is not easily defined and will not rest until it changes the course of creativity and human life as we know it...”
Kanye went on to tweet that the world needs “to pick up where Steve Jobs left off.” But some ask how Kanye can compare himself to Steve. CNET writes...
“You might think this is the mere boastfulness of a large-ego’d rapper. You might be right. For Kanye also tweeted that ‘DONDA will be comprised of over 22 divisions with a goal to make products and experiences that people want and can afford...’ Might its first product be cheap, 7" iPad, um, killer? Kanye’s ambitions seem not to be as mundane as that. For he also tweeted: ‘We need scientist and top world designers to directly affect governments.’”
WXRK also wonders about the motivation behind Kanye’s tweets, and poses a couple reasons for why the rapper went-off on Twitter.
“Some could interpret his rant as another way for Kanye to seek attention when he’s bored, and others could certainly interpret this as a way to use his celebrity to reach out to the world in order to help others succeed...Whether Kanye is just twitter happy, dreaming, or serious about these ventures, it seems that if it plays out how he envisions it, Ye’ could employ a city of creatives.”
