Kanye West's Yeezy worth at least $3 billion as he looks to branch out beyond fashion

Kanye West's fashion label is said to worth at least $3 billion.

Yeezy, famed mainly for its alternative trainer designers, had Kanye in debt four years ago, but now he's flying high as the sneaker side of the business alone was valued at around $3 billion last year.

Bloomberg reviewed a document by Bank of America Corp. which showed that Yeezy saw an incredible turn around - so soon after Kanye had tweeted Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to plead for financial aid.

Mirror Online has been to Kanye's reps for comment.

If anything, he's more ambitious than ever.

The 42 year old is currently self-isolating with wife Kim Kardashian, 39, and their four kids, North, six, Saint, four, Chicago, two, and Psalm, just short of one year old.

While the family are out on a Wyoming ranch, Bloomberg got in touch with Kanye to ask about his plans for the future.

"All of this is level two," he said, "It's time to go to level three."

Kanye recently opened up to GQ about his past battle with alcoholism - and how it had him drinking vodka at breakfast.

"People have called me a crazy person, people have called me everything," he told, "But not a functioning alcoholic.

"And I would be drinking orange juice and Grey Goose in the morning."

The Stronger rapper went on to detail his drinking at awards shows.

Kanye continued: "I really grabbed the drink to be able to even go to the awards show due to the information that everyone knows now."
