Kanye also addressed YEEZY’s impressive growth in a Tweet back in April.
“We have 160 positions to fill by the end of the year. Yeezy will hit a billion dollars this year. It is the 2nd fastest growing company in history. It is a unicorn on its way to becoming a decacorn,” he wrote.
As noted by The Blast, just because a company is worth over a billion dollars, doesn’t necessarily mean its founder is. But West is still Yeezy’s majority stakeholder, which means “he is right at the line of being considered a billionaire.”
