Raging against Louis Vuitton, the rapper slammed the fashion house in an interview for not taking a meeting with him.
“While I was in Paris I wanted to meet the head of Louis Vuitton and he said, ‘I don’t understand why we need to meet with you?’ I said, ‘Let me explain to you why you need to meet with me.’”
Kanye added, “Everybody in New York City right now, don’t buy any Louis Vuitton until after January…Now do you wanna meet with me? Influence…they think that I don’t realise my power.”
Not alone during the interview, Kanye brought along his fiancé Kim Kardashian with him.

This isn’t the first time that the rapper has slammed the French brand. Kanye said on Power 106′s Big Boy’s Neighbourhood radio show last month that he doesn’t agree with the company’s pricing though he did design a sneaker collection for them in 2009. Kanye went on to say that he wouldn’t ever consider teaming up with them again.
“If I had the opportunity to design for Louis Vuitton now I wouldn’t because the prices are just too extreme and I don’t want to use my message to have kids saving up that much to be a part of what the ideas are. That’s the problem to me with luxury,” he said.
