Kanye West Opens Pablo Pop-Up Shop in Los Angeles
Kanye West may not be throwing any more parties in L.A., but he is opening a Pablo pop-up shop in the City of Angels today.
On Saturday (May 21), Yeezy is set to launch his temporary store at 441 N. Fairfax in Los Angeles, the same location as Drake’s Views pop-up store. The shop will be open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. through Sunday (May 22).

Fittingly, Yeezy followed up the announcement by promoting his “No More Parties in LA” white crewneck, which is currently retailing for $90.

Fans started lining up outside of the shop’s location in the streetwear-driven Fairfax district last night, shortly after it was announced. According to creative director Virgil Abloh, the store will stock “everything new.”

In March, Yeezy opened up a similar shop in New York, unleashing several Life of Pablo-inspired pieces, including denim jackets, T-shirts, and hoodies.
Earlier in the week, ‘Ye spoke about his passion for fashion on “Ellen.”
“I literally have to be Michael Jackson of apparel in order to break open the doors for everyone that will come after I’m gone, after I’m dead, after they call me Wacko Kanye,” he said. “Isn’t that so funny that people point fingers at the people who have influenced us the most?”
