Tastemaker - According to Webster & Kanye

1. tastemaker

2 thumbs up

An individual who's determination of what's stylish influences a significant quantity or quality of people resulting in a supportive trend.

“I’m a pop enigma. I live and breathe every element in life. I rock a bespoke suit and I go to Harold’s for fried chicken. It’s all these things at once, because, as a tastemaker, I find the best of everything. There’s certain things that black people are the best at and certain things that white people are the best at. Whatever we as black people are the best at, I’m a go get that. Like, on Christmas I don’t want any food that tastes white. And when I go to purchase a house, I don’t want my credit to look black."

Kanye West talking to Spin Magazine.

Not ironic at all, all of the elements listed are sneakers that Kanye has frequently been spotted in.
