Today 5 years ago I stood in the yeezy show... I was still living with my mom and flew on a buddy pass to New York with probably $70 bucks to my name.. but I was mad excited and I feel like my life changed from this day on. My mom and friends cheered me on via text. Thanks Ian.<3 pic.twitter.com/B3CnTK9kDF
