Olivier Rousteing muses Kanye West and Joan Smalls have joined forces for Balmain’s Fall 2016 “Music Meets Fashion” campaign.

Joan struck a pose in the French fashion house threads that featured a ruffled two-piece, while Ye kept to his signature ripped jeans and a jacket. This is Yeezy’s second time starring in a Balmain ad after he posed for Balmain’s Spring/Summer 2015 “Army of Lovers” ad with his wife Kim Kardashian West.
The Balmain Gang was also recently featured in Paris Match magazine where they rocked their Balmain ensembles from the 2016 MET Gala.
On the music scene...
Diggy Simmons is hitting the music scene with a brand new track.
The 21-year-old rapper serves up a melodic new track titled“Feel Like,” where he raps about what it feels like to be on top of the world and being independent. Sort of gives us a Drake vibe was he rap-sings over the track.
He raps:
Have you ever been through can you please tell me what it feel like
And when your heart turn cold nigga it don’t feel right
On top of the world I wanna know what it feel like
Feel like, feel like
The song, which is produced by Ayo, Keyz& EV, is the follow up to two tracks he released earlier this year called “The Climate” and “N.Y. State of Mind.”
No word on where this track will end up, but maybe Diggy has a new project in the works. Time will tell. In the meantime, vibe out to his new track below:
