Kanye West surprises students

Yezzus is going back to school!


On Friday night, Kanye West made a surprise appearance at the Los Angeles Trade Technical College to dish out advice only Yeezus can…

To the delight of many students, instead of sitting in on a class or serving as a guest professor, the “All Day” rapper opted to attend the university’s gold thimble fashion show, featuring up and coming designers.


Sitting in the front row, West gave careful attention to a wide variety of sportswear, children’s clothing, bathing suits and evening wear that students had created to rip the runway.

After several designers presented their collections, Kim Kardashian’s husband took the podium where he delivered a few words of encouragement to future designers.

“If it’s in your gut, if it’s in your soul, there’s nothing, there is no worldly possessions that should come between you and your expression,” he explained. “I always had to fight to be accepted to love and I empathize with anyone in this era who has ever loved fashion.”

He added, “Usually, when you’re the absolute best, you get hated on the most.”

This isn’t the first time the 37-year-old has paid a visit to the college. Last September, West spent about two hours speaking to a group of 40 students from their digital communications department as well as troubled youth who are part of a summer bridge program and may not have graduated from high school. A few months earlier, he reportedly participated in a three-hour lecture at the public community college.

Nice! West may appear to be crazy at times, but he has his moments…
