*What would’ve really been epic, is if we didn’t see him come out at all. But was one of the guys walking in the circle with the rest of the participants. Just completely blending in. Then, have the lights go dim, flicker back on, and see him floating. Would’ve been fire*
The ending is most definitely Kanye rising up closer to his mother. The beam of light goes up out of the stadium and projects up into the heavens where Donda is. This album brings Kanye closer to his mother and is a tribute to her and so that’s the main reason he rises towards the sky above is the heavenly light
that's when I cried and my eyes balled because I wish I could see my mother just one more time..i understand him completely.....boy just wanted to see his mother 😭😭😭😭😭😭💔💔
As someone whose only real exposure to the world of fashion is your channel, I missed all of these references and connections - thank you for making this!
Ye's Margiela masks and Daft Punk's helmets are the reasons why I hide my face whenever it comes to creating. Preventing automatic, surface-level judgements on what the artist looks like helps so much in getting your purpose/message across. Beautiful analysis Bliss, well done!
Fascinating! Honestly I’ve never been much of a Kayne West fan but your interpretation of this event has given me a greater respect for him. I love seeing Martin’s concepts applied in other artistic arenas. Your analysis is fantastic as always
@@typicalbullsfan9329 Yeah bruh honestly I’m not gonna dedicate my whole life to Deciphering his entire discography lol I understand each lyric a second after I hear it. What’s the fun in that ?
3:45 Just adding that the bed has a stark resemblance to Tracey Emin's "My Bed" from 1999, like there is no way he wasn't inspired by that because the concept is almost exactly the same. Tracey's bed was a recreation of a depressive grieving phase in her life when she had remained in bed for four days without eating or drinking anything but alcohol.
The point made about Kanye silencing himself as a means of creative motivation is fantastic. Looking at the success of this album and the performance art he’s created as part of the whole Donda project seriously shows how effective it is for him- he’s Kanye, he likes to talk and be heard. Forcing himself to solely communicate his ideas through his work as an artist is just some real genius shit
i really really like the way you're storyteling, it shows that you know a lot about this stuff and you're genuinely passionate about it, it's contagious. Makes me actually be interested in fashion
Also that choreography at 12:06 feels symbolic to Tawaf during Hajj (Pilgrimage for Muslims) Kanye with square light as the Kaaba and the performers circle around. Just my theory! I mean Kanye is religious and might have took inspiration from a form of worship.
Thought the exact same thing when I saw it! He’s showing the unity in all religions. As long as you believe in god, one unity, one higher power, that is in all of us and all around us. We believe in the same ✊
The listening party performance was so good. It wasn’t just Kanye running around doing whatever. No, he’s too calculated for that. He was giving us an insight into the creative process of Donda while STILL being in the process. He laid on the bed, he looked at notes, he worked out, he fell to his knees and cried, he prayed, etc. He took away the 4 walls of his infamous Mercedes Benz Stadium “dorm room” that he posted a pic of and let the world see him in work
I think kanye wearing the cover also could’ve been a reference to Joseph beuys “i like America and America likes me” where he dons a similar cover, it should also be acknowledged kanye tweeted a photo of beuys wearing the cover on 2018. The whole donda release also gave me a beuys performance art type of vibe where he’s locking himself up and live-streaming his creative process of his album creation.
Amazing fashion analysis! I initially thought about Balenciaga when I saw his clothes but had no idea for the merch! I initially thought back to the life of Pablo, and that reference. Mainly on the way Picasso would document everything. And in the way Kanye is now documenting the entire process, from the documentary to now the live stream. And even what seems to be a live version of the album being made. With Picasso documenting every steps of a piece being made with lith prints, dates, ideas and so forth. Love the videos!
I too immediately thought of the Margiela fitting rooms when I saw the 24 hour stream. One idea I had about the whole performance though, that ties into the discussion ya'll were having about masks. The almost paradoxical idea in Christianity that God cares about everyone on a personal level. I guess you could sum it up like "You're special, just like everyone else". I think that has a strong parallel to putting a Margiela mask on a high profile individual, like you mentioned earlier about simultaneous ego and anti-ego. I think this is reinforced by the final track being called "No Child Left Behind". In the equalizing state of being a child of God Ye truly is just another person, but doesn't lose any uniqueness in being so. This could also be reinforced by the fact that there is an absurd amount of features on what is believed to be a very personal album.
I finally did it! Became a patron of yours! big fan of Margiela myself, since my early interest in avantgarde and darker fashion as a teen in the southern German countryside around 2005 or so. After a few years of fashion asceticism and minimalism, I have started to rekindle my love and passion for fashion and style and to consume content around it again 2 yrs ago. Your channel has really helped me to see it all in a more positive light of art and culture again after my perosnal rebellion against capitalism that made it hard for me to appreciate clothing anymore... I very much appreciated your Jacquemus video! I mean, pretty much all your videos. Which is why I finally became a patreon. much love from Germany.
Im a huge Kanye fan but never dove into the merch and fashion. This was interesting as hell. You got a new sunscriber. I love learning new stuff. Especially about art.
My interpretation/theory that the room was symbolic of the tomb Jesus was put in after he was crucified and then later ascended to heaven. Him being completely alone and exposed at the first show to him being surrounded at this one seems significant in some way if it was planned out. Loved the video though I wouldn’t have caught all of those references :)
Also that choreography at 12:06 feels symbolic to Tawaf during Hajj (Pilgrimage for Muslims) Kanye with square light as the Kaaba and the performers circle around. Just my theory! I mean Kanye is religious and might have took inspiration from a form of worship. I could be wrong but it is all up for interpretation.
I agree. I think he is going on a completely other direction from most of the black, even white people in the industry in the sense of upholding human values as they’re vanishing in today’s society, even though at first sight one would just notice those “weird” to some maybe “controversial” outfits he been using
There’s something beautiful about the interlude where the word “donda” is incessantly repeated. in my perspective, it seems like when you say a word a million times, it begins to lose its meaning. With the Word “Donda” it was originally Kanye’s mother’s name, however with the constant talk of the album and the countless hours of work that Kanye is putting into the project, the word may be losing its meaning as the name of his mother as he continues to work on the project and as people continue to keep talking about it

The "blanket jacket" could also be a reference to the piece by Joseph Beuys "I like America and America likes me" that Kanye referenced earlier in his work. In the performance art piece Beuys wears a huge blanket while living with a coyote in small room.
As an FYI, that “Siberian bear hunting armor” actually comes from a Cabinet of curiosities and is believed to be a piece of art rather than armor for hunting.
I actually got to see the siberian hunting armor in person. It's located at the Menil collection museum in Houston Texas. It was extremely creepy to see in person honestly but I couldn't take my eyes off it for a while. Very interesting piece to view.
Ok 6 months later im still blown away by all the references 8:39 Kanye did this since 2018?? He replaced "i" with "we" and seeing Maison doing that in the first place ASTRONISHING
the location reminds me of barney's cremaster cycle and so does the fake sky but myb I'm biased because I checked out kanyes twitter and among the last posts there was a book by/on barney. Enjoyed the video so much, thank u!
I just wanted to thank you for your videos they are some of the best and most intellectual content I’ve consumed in a long time. They have also helped me understand my own creative process.
