Kanye West has taken to Twitter to boast about the money he made from his pop-up store in New York City.

West, who tweeted last month to lament his $53 million in debt, sold a slew of pricey clothing at the store from March 18-20 in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood. Items included a bomber jacket for $350 and a jean jacket for $400.

He dubbed the store after his recent album, Life of Pablo. The items sold were reportedly inspired by his music.

On Twitter, West wrote, “but there is no other brand that could sell 1 million dollars of clothing in 2 days from 1 location!!!” West has 20.5 million followers on the social media platform.

Earlier this month, West is said to have appeared at Ikea’s offices in Sweden because of a possible collaboration with the furniture brand. Unsurprisingly, he took to Twitter after the trip:

In March, West asked Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg for $1 billion to help with his debt.
