Kanye West has gone from being the messiah for every ailing fashion brand to barely being spotted anywhere in a matter of months. The drastic change in status quo comes from his raging controversies, from racism to anti-Semitism in the past year. This cost Ye not only the deals that were set to multiply his fortune, but also a massive cut from his billions as he got embroiled in countless lawsuits. His resurgence seemed to be out of the question this year. However, the tables have turned in his favor.

His quiet marriage with a lesser-known Bianca Censori, and many months away from the spotlight, have done the rapper well. And as his Yeezy brand is jumping back owing to Adidas, Kanye West is now looking to build a passionate workforce.
