Is Kanye Leaving Music For Fashion?

Kanye West is rumoured to be set to leave his first love, music, behind - at least for a time - to allow him to focus on fashion. West's most recent offering was a collection of trainers for Nike - but the rapper and producer has defected to the company´s main rival and wants to dedicate more time to designing.

"After his next [collaboration] with Paul McCartney comes out, he's going to step away from music and concentrate on clothing," a source told Page Six. "He got a $15 million signing bonus from Adidas, but his line has been pushed back four times because he hasn't had enough time to work on it."

West launched his eponymous label with a Paris Fashion Week show in October 2011 but cancelled his third showcase less than a year later - shuttering his brand shortly after. He later launched a collaboration with APC, which sold out within a day.
