– Love or hate his music – but what about his clothes? The rapper turned fashion mogul is selling clothing based on his latest album, “The Life of Pablo”.

The budding designer designed his first Yeezy line for Nike back in 2009 and later on for adidas in 2015, both which sold out quickly.

The store’s hours will be Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m.to 7 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.

The location for LA was unveiled at kanyewest.com overnight – and it will open Friday!

In addition to Los Angeles, the stores will open in 13 other USA cities including New York, Boston, and Miami, as well as worldwide cities including London, Berlin, and Sydney. According to Vogue, T-shirts and hoodies featuring each city’s name, written in the gothic-style script of the artist and West collaborator Cali Thornhill DeWitt, will be available to purchase.
