New York:

Rapper Kanye West is reportedly planning to quit his music career in order to pursue the fashion world.

The 37-year-old singer feels that there are bigger bucks in fashion than in music, reported New York Post.

“After his next collaboration with Paul McCartney comes out, he is going to step away from music and concentrate on clothing,” a source said.

The sneakers West designed for Nike have become collectibles, selling for thousands of dollars, but the rapper left Nike because he wasn’t making enough money.

“He got a USD 15 million signing bonus from Adidas, but his line has been pushed back four times because he hasn’t had enough time to work on it,” the source added.

West is married to reality TV star Kim Kardashian and has a daughter named North.
