MAN I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY. THIS IS A REAL HONOR! THIS WHOLE YEAR HAS BEEN SO OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE.... FROM THE YEEZY'S TO THE LOUIE VUITTONS.... FROM HEARTLESS BEING THE NUMBER ONE SONG ON RADIO FOR THE FIRST QUATER OF THIS YEAR TO AMAZING BEING THE THEME SONG FOR THE NBA PLAYOFFS. IT MEANS A LOT TO BE ABLE TO GET RESPECT FROM MY CORE AND PEERS EVEN THOUGH EVERYBODY KNOWS I GET A LITTLE CRAZY WITH THE CLOTHES SOMETIMES. I'M ON VACAY RT NOW WITH A WHITE T ON. IT'S NICE TO READ SOMETHING POSITIVE FOR A CHANGE! PHARRELL PIONEERED WHAT I DO NOW. HE WAS THE ORIGINAL TO BREAK DOWN DOORS BETWEEN "REAL FASHION" AND HIP HOP WORLDS, DOING BEATS FOR NOREAGA AND RUNNING AROUND WITH THE MODEL CHICKS. ROSS GET'S REAL FRESH. TI HAS A GREAT EFFORTLESS SINCE OF STYLE. JAY HAS SET MAD TRENDS AND IS THE SINATRA OF OUR ERA. NOBODY IS AS FRESH AS RALPH LUAREN HIMSELF, ONLY ANDRE 3000 AND BENTLEY GET CLOSE BUT THERE'S STILL WORK TO DO. I THINK OLD MEN DRESS THE FRESHEST, NOT TRENDY AT ALL BUT SOMETIMES STILL COLORFUL AND INTERESTING. THEY'VE FIGURED OUT WHAT LOOKS GOOD ON THEM AND THEY STICK IT. THE UP HILL BATTLE WE HAVE AS HIP HOP ARTIST IS HIP HOP IS ROOTED IN TRENDS. TRUE STYLE AND TRENDS VERY SELDOMELY MEET. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A TENDENCY TO WEAR STUFF THAT'S LAUGHABLE 2 YEARS LATER. WHEN I SEE CRAZY STUFF I'VE WORN AND PEOPLE LAUGH AT ME, ALL I CAN DO IS LAUGH WITH YOU AND THINK, I HAD FUN THOUGH. THANKS AGAIN, MR. WEST

okay omg!!!!!!!! kanye i wanna shake you it's so obvious that you implanted a damn fashion seed in everyone of this generation. that's what i believe and im sticking to it. after you planted a seed then the plant grew and even if they were doing it you pulled it off in the spot light. you wore a button down in gold digger lol :) but i didn't vote for you at all because i knew you were going to win and it's no mistake on no one's past tent wardrobe exspecially when there expressing there self. the way you dress each day tells us how you feel inside, unless you gotta work. but you stay freasher then zest in a ziplock so nuff said this award just isn't enough.your like prince for us man. i guess when i look back from now when some mention fashion you'll be at top rank. like when i look back now in the 80's prince,micheal,madonna.those are the names that come to mind."ok no one's gonna take me serious with my default picture i have to change it quick lollol...

I love your style Kanye. I am so happy for you. I am glad this year is going well for you. You most certainly deserve it! I hope to meet you one day because you are such an inspiration. I know you get millions of comments but I just always have to show love. I also acknowledged you in my poetry book releasing next month. You have contributed so much to the way I express myself and I would be so blown away if I met you in person. I pray someday soon I will! Keep up the good work. You are a pioneer and fearless in being yourself! Thank you Kanye!

Kanye, I makes me so happy to see that you are seeing the positive and loving life. When I see that you are depressed, it depresses me. When I see you are happy, it makes me happy. Just like it would be with a friend or brother. Congratulations on all your success this year, and thank you for inspiring me to be me. I've made severe life changes cause of that. Now I'm moving from home to work at a rescue mission in NYC and its because you gave me the guts to do what I wanted to do, not what other people want me to do. Thanks Ye.
