Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[Maximus Meridius]

Fake 11's gotta be brutal b/c the real ones sure can be.

Jim be forgetful sometimes, he said NY started the Nike boot, he said NY didn't wear FUBU , Kanye definitely came in the game w/ "fitted" clothes in the era, while Jim & the rest of dips stuff was baggy as hell. Kanye blew up Carhartt/workwear stuff when he was hiding his mantits, & now I can't find a damn carhartt shirt or jacket in thrift stores anymore. It was a guarantee that you'll walk in & tan canvas linned carhartt jacket.

This is 04-05

Jim was looking outta place in Dipset for a second til Juelz started dressing like him.

You could tell in real time that Jacob wasn’t putting out the best quality, he was just the hot name and added color to his pieces which is what cats wanted at that time

I gotta disagree. To this day Jacob is light years ahead of any of the other jewelers in terms of craftsmanship. Homie been in his own league. They did get caught up selling CZ’s but nobody matching that quality.

human made is hard

This is their hottest piece. Pierrot button up from 2011

I would buy this if I saw it in a thrift store, but not for retail. It's cool though. Not w/ that colour denim though. A light medium wash pair of 505 or 512 cut would w/ some og stan smith's would set it off well.

Look at the Certified Gangsta video & Look at the All Falls Down video.

Look at Pharrell from any video from 01-03. Before people really knew Kanye he was known for wearing slim clothes.
