Forever 21 Totally Ripped Off Kanye’s The Life Of Pablo Shirt
Kanye debuted a new line of The Life Of Pablo-inspired merchandise at his Yeezy Season 3 event/listening party back in February, and since then, more of the Cali Thornhill DeWitt-designed merch has appeared at places like pop-up shops, music festivals, and Kobe Bryant’s last NBA game. Now, a similar design has showed up in an unexpected place: Forever 21. The clothing company is now selling a t-shirt that looks a whole lot like Kanye’s “Ultralight Beam” shirt, except with nothing on the front and the words on the back changed to “SIMON DE CYRENE FOR THE WORLD.” It’s a pretty blatant ripoff. Funnily enough, though, as our very own Michael Nelson notes:
Weirdly these aren’t actually cheaper than real Pablo merch but at least you won’t have to wait on any lines to cop. https://t.co/optRyb5hmK
