Tyga, you’re no Kanye.

Fresh off his breakup with Kylie Jenner, T-Raww appears to be all about his business. But we’re not sure how this venture will play out. The rapper just launched a new clothing line called Burlon X Tyga for Saks Fifth Avenue, and the price point is similar to that of Yeezy Season.

Similar how? Similar in that it is wildly overpriced. The collaboration between Tyga and designer Marcelo Burlon—which, not shockingly, features lots of images of tigers— includes a $1,200 jacket and t-shirts that cost nearly $300. Despite the high prices, the collection is reportedly selling out quickly.

Here’s how Tyga justified the steep prices:

“It’s an art, you know?” he told Refinery29. “You’re selling the dream. And it’s like, ‘What is someone willing to pay for this art?’ I justify the price with what I feel my worth is. It’s like, ‘Yo, do you love me that much? Do you understand my art that much that you’re willing to pay?’”
