Kanye West visited the Los Angeles Trade Technical College on Friday, May 29, 2015, and he gave its students a word or two of advice.

The rapper attended a fashion show at the college featuring many up and coming designers. Afterwards, he took to the podium to encourage the fashion designers with his own advice.

“If it’s in your gut, if it’s in your soul, there’s nothing, there is no worldly possessions that should come between you and your expression,” he explained. “I always had to fight to be accepted to love and I empathize with anyone in this era who has ever loved fashion.”

He added, “Usually, when you’re the absolute best, you get hated on the most.”

Wouldn’t you be delighted to have Dr. West on campus for some little inspiration?
