Pharrell Williams Wins Over Fans As He Acknowledges Kanye West as The &#8216;Louis Vuitton Don&#8217; in Paris

LV-monogrammed Speedy bags and pixelated camouflage took center stage at
illuminated Pont Neuf. Pharrell Williams debuted his first Louis Vuitton
menswear collection, succeeding Virgil Abloh as the men’s creative director of
the fashion house. However, even though Paris’s oldest bridge basked in his
glory, he would reject being called the Louis Vuitton Don, stating, “Louis
Vuitton Don is one great Kanye West [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west/].
Period.”

For those who may need to brush up on their memory, “Louis Vuitton Don” is a
moniker West molded for himself in his early discography. Ye would plainly refer
to himself as “Kan, the Louis Vuitton Don,” in his first album, ‘College
Dropout.’ Ever since the music and the media industry has often referred to the
Donda Academy owner by this nickname. Furthermore, almost half a decade later,
the fashion designer also released a range of men’s sneakers, named, “Louis
Vuitton Don,” in collaboration with the fashion house.

And now, almost two decades after his debut album, his nickname soars high as
only his. While Pharrell did manage to set an unforgettable stage, he created a
striking moment when he paid homage to his fellow rapper and designer, Ye. The
American record producer further acknowledged that he is the “Pupil King. I am
the student,” before expressing his gratitude.

As soon as Ye fanatics came across this footage, they took no time to appreciate
the new men’s fashion director and agree with him that none can take away that
name from Kanye West


FANS AGREE WITH PHARRELL WILLIAMS AS HE CALLS KANYE WEST THE ONLY “LOUIS VUITTON
DON”

Some fans simply re-shared the video hinting that they agree with Williams,
while others state, “Love to the brother Skateboard P as he’s coming through
with his first men’s collection for Louis Vuitton.”

Furthermore, some of the Ye fanatics also state things like “game recognizes
game,” and “Pharrell a real one for real.”
