Antonio Brown is now Kanye “Ye” West’s newest employee (via MARCA English). Go ahead and let that sink in for a minute. According to Cassius, West hired Brown as a part of Donda Sports. While there is not a whole lot of information about what that actually means, the athlete has made comments that he’s actually leaning more towards fashion than any part of the Donda Sports department of the Donda Academy. Although the possibilities are “limitless,” according to his comment.
The title doesn’t even seem to be clear to Brown. “We’re just excited about the Donda sports brand, and making this thing a competitive sports brand to the athletes,” Brown says, according to Cassius. “I don’t think there’s a lot of fashion lines for athletes, wearing fashionable and comfortable clothes, so with a guy like Kanye West, being able to partner with him and work with him to provide more creative, genius ideas for fashion looks for athletes in general … I’m just grateful for the opportunity here soon, to share what we’ve got with the world.”
What makes Brown and West such a good pair? Well, they’re both a bit controversial in their professions (via Sports Illustrated). Weeks before news broke that Brown would be working with West, he quit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, blaming his entire team and coaching staff, and then left the NFL altogether. Now, he’s on to a brand new profession, it seems.
