How? Hip hop has been in tune with high fashion since ever. Jay-z, Nas, Biggie, AZ, LL and host of other rappers have always mentioned high fashion wears in their raps. Dana Dane had a shop where hip hop artist and drug dealers would get their Gucci, LV, and fendi wears from in the late 80s and early 90s. But you know what makes kanye different? He has these high fashion brands GO AFTER HIM for collabs and expand their brand. Nothing wrong with looking nice.


I think his mothers death has affected his music more than what he likes to wear

I knew someone was going to bring up "hip,hop been rocking high end", obviously that's the case but the issue is now you can't listen to a song without Tom ford, Gucci, Armani, LV..... Being name dropped

In the 90s it was mentioned once in awhile, by a couple people here and there, now even the broke mixtape rappers can't stop talking about it

I definitely believe he's real. I don't believe in him though. I believe in God. You can easily find out satan is real, I don't think you want do that though.

I never understood how atheist can believe God or satan don't exist. I could understand stupid people but most atheists aren't stupid. But those who know satan will never say that he doesn't exist and those who know God will always believe he exist.

I don't attribute human faults or successes to higher powers. Just a difference in perspectives.
