You wanna know the answer, can it be turned into a silhouette and be recognizable ? If answer is no then it is not iconic or greatest image in hiphop history.

2pac has that silhoutte game on lock, like elvis, marilyn manroe, al hitchcock (which can be biggie) bob marley, hogan, mickey mouse, bart, etc.

Alright man I'll back off. I don't want to be "that guy". I'm probably coming across like a backpacker. I like Eazy I just disagree with putting him on the same level as Pac like others tend to.

Trust if the DOC would of left Dre and been with Eazy ruthless would of shytted on DR... Eazy was what he rapped about, probably not a killer but he was the streets and he had a voice it was just Dre and DOC made it into beautiful music...Eazy will forever be my favorite for giving me the "news from his ghetto point of view." He had an ear for talent and gave back to the hood, had he been still alive he would of been a billionare by now.

Personally, I like Ghost's image.

The Clarks :youngsabo:
The robes :wow:
The eagle :gladbron:
Throw in the mafia/kung fu/Ironman influences :ohlawd:

....oh, and that pic in Enter the 36 and the Chessboxin video where he got the stocking cap on cuz of the legal troubles :birdman:

Edit: but can't knock Eazy's image. Who do you think of when you see a black hat with Compton written in Olde English?

Eazy E wore the robe long before ghostface did it.

...do you mean trenchcoat? I don't recall him rocking any robes, but someone dapped you so I might be missing something. I did try googling eazy e robe and this was the first image that came up :skip: (none of the actual eazy pics got robes)

But if you google Ghostface killah robe, even his action figure got one :pachaha: (ghostface robe is only Scream pics :pachaha:)

Cool, I guess point for Eazy, but Ghost took that shyt to a whole nother level. Your link is broken but I'll just search "Eazy Arsenio" on YouTube

Edit: :russ: just saw that shyt, he wasn't even wearing a shirt/shoes :pachaha: I think they're two different images tho. Eazy came out on some absolutely no fukks given type of style, while Ghost's robe game was more on some crazy stupid fly type of style.

Actually someone put me onto game in a different thread when they were talking about Ghost's robes. He was emulating Vincent Gigante (Genovese crime family) pleading insanity, who would always walk around his neighborhood in a robe and house slippers to keep up the insane image. Kinda like Tony's uncle in the Sopranos.
