Kim Kardashian expressed just how proud she is of her husband, Kanye West, for finally locking in a partnership with the GAP.

Kim Kardashian made sure to congratulate her hubby on his new brand deal, stressing just how long he's been working toward this moment. On Friday (June 26th), Kanye West announced that Yeezy is officially collaborating with the GAP as part of a ten-year clothing deal, for which he will develop apparel for men, women, and children. Longtime fans of Kanye know just how exciting this is for him as he has a long history with the GAP. Kim brought attention to this history when she applauded Ye for his accomplishment, mentioning his stint as a GAP employee at one of their stores when he was in high school.

"If anyone knows Kanye they know how much the Gap and Yeezy means to him so this partnership is his dream come true!" Kim tweeted. "I am so proud of him. You guys are going to love what they have in store for everyone! From working at the Gap to this partnership is so inspiring #WestDayEver."

Kanye famously rapped about his time working at the GAP as a teenager on his 2004 song, "Spaceship," for which he just dropped the official music video on his website sixteen years later. "After I f*ck the manager up/Then, I'm gonna shorten the register up/Let's go back, back to the GAP/Look at my check—wasn't no scratch," he spit. "So if I stole, wasn't my fault/Yeah, I stole—never got caught."

Following the news of his exciting partnership, Kanye announced a ton of additional projects coming soon, including the previously teased Dr. Dre sequel to Jesus Is King. The #WESTDAYEVER has just begun.
