YEEZY & Balenciaga Team Up On the Ultimate DMX Grail
Before DMX's funeral, Kanye West's YEEZY and Balenciaga are coming together for a special commemorative shirt.
YEEZY asked Balenciaga to design a T-shirt in tribute to the late artist Earl Simmons, aka DMX. It will be sold by Yeezy on a dedicated webpage starting April 24th. The tribute is to the artist and his fans, with all proceeds benefiting Simmons's family.
DMX will be honored with two memorial services this weekend. Though the physical events will be restricted to friends and family, the proceedings will be live-streamed to the public.
Today, Saturday, April 24 at 4 pm ET, a Celebration of Life memorial will be held at the Barclays Center and broadcast live on BET. This is followed by a traditional Homegoing Ceremony on Sunday, April 25 at 2:30 pm ET, which will be live-streamed on the rapper’s YouTube channel – you can tune in below.
