Kanye West Is Selling 'Yeezus' Tour Shirts In A Downtown Pop-Up Shop

So this is happening downtown right now.

The self-proclaimed genius rapper and music producer, budding fashion mogul and enfant terrible brought his "Yeezus" tour to the United Center Thursday night and now has a pop-up shop of tour merchandise.

Let's see what the store looks like inside, shall we?

Okay. How about another look?

But how about the fashions? What's West selling? Well, based on this gallery from RedEye's Ernest Wilkins (who asked earlier this week if West is even considered a Chicagoan anymore) you can have a chance to buy a "Yeezus" tour shirt with Kanye's image on it for $35, or a "Yeezus" tour motorcycle jacket&with a Stars and Bars emblem—for $600.

So is this West displaying his fashion talent or is this an opportunity to sell the "Yeezus" merchandise that wasn't sold at the United Center? It doesn't matter, to be honest. West's fans will be making a beeline to the shop until it closes Friday night.
