They've been dressing like idiots since forever for the most part. Our idea of what that idiocy is has just shifted.

Rap isnt the same as it was in the 90's or 80's, its Pop now so the artist dress like Pop Stars and not "hood" or "gangster"

"Im the new face of hip hop"

 

[wenis]

I for one am glad that the image of the "gangster" is dead in the mainstream. Wear all the colors ya like, I was getting sick of grey and black.

 

[Gully State]

I, for one, am glad that the standards for masculinity and what is and isn't acceptable has become a lot less rigid and a lot more open-minded in the Hip Hop community. It's called change and progress.

I'm not. Shit looks ridiculous

You can be fashionable/handsome without looking like a clown. See: 2pac

There he is.

ITT Celebrities attempt to create/assimilate to Fads.

It's foolish spend time on disliking Today's fashion. The very nature of it is constantly changing fads. It also makes you look silly when you claim that any era of Hip Hop fashion as if one is better than the other.

Leopard pants = Stupid
Shiny Suits = Stupid
Clothing 3 sizes too big = Stupid
Full blown costumes that look like you threw on half the Salvation Army = Stupid

 

[Cipherr]

Photoshoots dont really bother me. People have worn some ridiculous shit for photoshoots since forever.

But damn, when you are on your own time, and still dressing like a goddamned fool while out and about; I just .... man...

 

[Gully State]

Never forget

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Never forget

That's Frank! Tupac's body guard.

I don't think it's too bad.

They need to wear pants the right way or wear shorts.

So we gone to act like that mask yeezy is wearing ain't badass I see

...hell no. I'm glad Yeezus has come out as rap's first furry/Court of Owls cosplayer, but that shit is straight stupid. You're drinking some special koolaid if you think wearing a taxidermist's leftovers over your face is anything resembling badass.

Come on sons.

Spoiler

hip hop is full of clowns and idiots, but i think asap rocky dresses well when he isnt trying to be a douche and he's just wearing pyrex, supreme, some denim, and sneakers. i think q would too if he didnt sag, fuck plenty of rappers would if they didnt sag still

Take the worst dressing people in hip hop and put em in a thread.

[Rocket Scientist]

Why did Tupac have to die =(

 

[Dereck]

What do you say GAF, are the rappers in the pics above examples of creativity and originality, or they are just pretentious, hideously dressed insults to the genre?

I don't think it matters either way.

 

[Blearth]

I love it.

Then again, I've always been a firm believer that weird is good and weirder is better.

 

[Nappuccino]

Because they are man-children?

 

[DreD]

I wouldn't dress like him, but I do like Big Boi's style.

 

[computers putin']
