Kanye “Ye” West’s YEEZY brand is going through a period of semi-disfunction at the moment, as Ye’s controversial new CEO and new YEEZY headquarters are getting situated in Los Angeles while Ye visits Japan. In fact, as first-look imagery of two new YEEZY spaces suddenly reveals, everything YEEZY-related certainly seems to be a period of flux.
First, there’s a purported YEEZY workspace set up in Los Angeles’ Cornerstone Christian Church church, where Ye reportedly has seamstresses working on new YEEZY clothes.

Main things to note from this first peek inside YEEZY HQ — it’s still unconfirmed exactly what this space will be, whether it’s a store, an office, both, or neither — include the tall ceilings, raw untreated floor, and ample support beams. Expect those to all remain basically unchanged.
Meanwhile, as YEEZY things happen in Los Angeles, Ye and wife Bianca Censori are strolling around Tokyo, he in his sweats and socks, she in a leotard sort of thing and kitten-heeled mules.
Note Ye’s pullover, presumably a preview of some…
