Ralph Lauren Is Glad Kanye West Respects Him

It ain't Ralph though!

Do you remember that cogent phrase that was heard all around the world? The day Kanye verbally squashed Sway's soul deep into the ground with merely four words. Well, Ralph Lauren appreciates Kanye for turning his famous clothing line into a proverbial catch-phrase. In an interview with Style.com, Mr. Ralph Lauren gave his two cents on Kanye's adoration for his clothing line.

DS: I don’t know if you heard this, but there was a famous radio interview that Kanye West did. He was talking about this clothing line that the host of the show owned, and he said, “It ain’t Ralph, though.” The idea being, it’s not Ralph Lauren level, that Ralph is now a byword for a certain …

RL: Oh. [ laughs] So an adjective. It’s very Ralph.

DS: It ain’t Ralph level.

RL: That’s very cool. Well, that’s great. If I were to cater to Kanye, he would know that I’m catering to him. The fact that I make what I make—he gets it. He gets the quality and he respects it. And I think that’s the key, why I work all the time is to do that. That’s the fun.

That certainly bodes well for Kanye. West is planning to release his Yeezy 3's in November.
