Thristen was dope from a 'Lo Head perspective. I'm a huge 'Lo head so I definitely give him props.
But 'Ye and Skateboard P actually started collabing with the brands that rappers had only previously worn and idolized.


Ye is a ripoff of Dem dare and Dem dare are influenced by lo lifes.
Learn your history and Kanye can not dress or acessorize anywhere near what Dem dare was about on no day.
Rap became mainstream from Dem dare reg know creating singlehandidly how to mass market hip hop culturally for the pop audience world wide.

Just stop breh,....
Pharrell can't dress and has no swag compared to Dem dare or lo lifes.
Everything ye and pharrell toy sellout c00n asses do is from lo life and Dem dare marketing, period.

Fab is fly, his inspiration def comes from the 80s-90s. Kanye is always gonna be Kanye. Whether you hate him or not he's the most inspirational and imitated rapper when it comes to fashion. If I'm going all time I gotta go with slick rick or Rakim. Them dudes were on another level in my eyes :manny:

I'd argue that 'Ye was more heavily influenced by Taz Arnold specifically, who too was a 'Lo Head.

But Dem Dare was a Chicago cat so I could see how 'Ye probably drew influences from him as well.


You 90's dudes be so angry whenever someone doesn't know the most trivial info though. To say Pharrell and 'Ye can't dress or hasn't influenced hip-hop and the entire city of Chicago's style as a whole is crazy. As influential as the dudes you mentioned might be, ain't no one working at RSVP Gallery are going to name them as their style influences.

I'm 25, born in '91. Ye and Pharrell changed the game from a style perspective for hip-hop. It's indisputable.

nikka,...taz Arnold ain't influence Kanye at all on this shyt.
That was all Dem dare, and kalif to reg and tone bobby and clay.
Dem dare is not a Chicago cat.
It is one of the greatest and all time flyest crews in the history of hip hop and single handedly is how hip hop was marketed world wide.
Again learn your history....ain't nobody but Dem dare influence Kanye culturally as far as hip hop fashion, period.


Just stop breh.
You don't know this shyt and your google but lack of indepth study just told on yourself.
trying to pose by calling Dem dare one person.

Just stop breh,.....

You young nikkaz don't know this culture and need to realize you can not fake jax on real bboys.
Just because you follow jiggy sellouts.

Breh, I was there.

Ye and pharrell did not change shyt,..it already existed.
It is obvious you were not there and you not even respectful enough of the culture to dig and get what you lack.
Which is a direct violation of this culture because you are supposed to know, period.
Not speculate not guess, but know and also be prescient about this culture.
when you know the history norms, and mores of hip hop.

You exposed yourself on your own and you can not critique anyone.
till you know this culture and really apart of it for real..


Art Barr

also the nerve of you to post a dem dare link here.
When, I am thee guy who intro'd who dem Demarest was to this community twenty years and in real time.
To the point when I posted the original link.
Members from dem dare registered from the link being linked to the reg know cartoon site.

Stop it,.....

Everything you're referencing I was literally like 2-5 yrs old during the heyday of. I'm not a b-boy and was not a part of that era of rap.
I'm respectful of the culture and understand that you're a big proponent of keeping the virtues and 4 elements very near and dear.
But to hold this information as something that 20-somethings should have Rolodex on is :manny:
You can't expect 90's babies to be familiar with every streetcrew that was big in the 90's and 80's just like I wouldn't clown you on not knowing modern Soundcloud rap or being familiar with VLONE or Off-White on the fashion tip.

Nas ain't never been fresh like that.

He don't even have an iconic fit.
nor accessory that regular nikkaz or nikkaz in the culture rocked.
His claim to fame dressing was jiggy sellout wannabe goodfella suits.

Y'all nikkaz and the Ts tweak'n even mentioning nas.



Art Barr

nas is more famous for that street new yorkish swag so to speak. the "nas cut" is iconic. the timbs, the army jacket and the nautica jacket, he was the poster child of that. it ain't hard to tell did a lot.

I heard a lot of rappers referenced nas when it comes to the mid 90's street style
