So whats the sales pitch attached to these products???

Hand crafted? Egyptian cotton? What exactly is the jusitification for the high price tags? This nikka aint @then1ggerian, he and the people around him knows he has to have one

:what: That's a fukking cashmere skimask b. It's 100% pure-- not silk or cotton blends. That was made in the same factory as Saint Laurent and Balmain. The quality of the skimask speaks for itself, if anything he could get away with triple what he's charging. That's how good the quality is

why does jay-z need to barney to sell his own brand?

lol Jay Z doesn't own or have access to any sweatshops and the finest fabric and textile factories.

If he doesn't go through Barneys and tries to do it on his own, he gets that Rocawear quality level of clothing :scusthov:

he has hundreds of millions of dollars :dahell:

You don't seem to understand that doesn't mean anything. Cam'ron has a Breakfeast Club interview where he specifically talks about how the whole Hip Hop fashion stuff
works. Cacs control all the manufacturers and textile factories so you have to go through them to put out a quality product and at most they only giving you 10% of the profit. That's Rocawear level quality of clothing, so imagine what it would take to get cashmere ski mask and egyptian cotton t-shirt mass produced :patrice:


Networth means nothing when you control the means of production

This man is a goon just like Michael Jordan and plenty of other wealthy men of color.
They come from humble beginnings and the second they achieve a certain level of success, they cow tow to the white political/economic establishment and play the game in order to protect their self-interests.
Look, that's fine.
But it's a damn disgrace when you built yourself up on the backs of the people you now choose to ignore.
So yeah, Jay-Z is a house nikka. The second he issued that BS statement about the Barney incident, it was official.
Eff him and his stupid wife.
yea i should've completed my comment - some of the comments venture into "hate", there's plenty to point at and find fault with without that. but we certainly should be searching for better role models than jay-z
