  • The history of 2000's #rapclothinglines go deep, really deep. In this video we cover the #historyofstreetwear from day 1 until now.
    Remember when #hiphopclothes Ruled?
    LL Cool J wouldn't be caught dead not in Fubu and even crashed a Gap commercial wearing a Fubu hat, Jay Z and everybody signed to rock a fella repped hard for Rock a wear, everyone from Usher to Beyoncé could be seen in Sean John.
    Kids these days may not realize, but there was a time where rappers having a clothing line was a prerequisite. Or if they didn't have their own, they were closely affiliated with one.
    Today, rappers brag about high fashion brands like Gucci and Louie but in the early 2000s the upstart urban brands were de joure in the rap game.

    Today's world it is hard trying to brand. I am in the middle of starting one called pREACH unlimited, it's about the Reach. A Christian based clothing line, 20% gos back into the community. I hear that 100 dollars for shoes is a lot, when they are wearing 500 dollar shoes. Support a brand that cares about you and your area.

      I hear you, starting from scratch is tough. But stick with it bro, I’m finding that the most loyal fans will support what they really stand by and they will create the foundation for others to latch on to.

      I wish you lot’s of succes with your brand and think it’s a good name for a brand but if i can give you my honest opinion i wouldn’t go for a small letter at the front because it’s something that issen’t really aesthetic ( Offcourse i don’t know if this was going to be the case in the actual logo) but would definitely try to distuingish the P from reach on a different way, too bad (P) is allready taken by phat farm but you could maybe use some kind of P that looks like a 2 or something since the objective is 2 Reach.

    You skipped Marc Ekco and the later connection with G Unit whose T shirt layouts was dope. Silly thinking rappers went back to foreign designers not associated with the culture... it is odd. You would think you want your people's culture to bloom but no they bloom another

      @@draztiktunez7104 Fubu creator's are not themselves rappers, but line was affiliated with hip hop worn by rappers. Dapper Dan himself is not a rapper, but he design clothing for the dope early rappers. Echo design clothing for rappers, 50 Cent wore designs by eco brand and G Unit wear came from eco brand. Karl Kani is not a rapper but he designed for the streets.

    If I'm not mistaken, the rapper fabolous had a clothing company called Rich Yung. Also, I believe Lil Romeo had one. Something about cookie monster. Everyone and their momma had a clothing line.

    You should have made mention of Kanye’s impact he was kinda the transition. 1st he brought the 90’s polo, náutica, Eddie Bauer, bboy style back when he first came out then he’s the one that flipped it to high fashion around the time the ROC broke up

    Too bad the culture didnt push the blk labels to the levels of the white labels like Louis Vutton and Gucci. I mena the closest thing we had was Yeezy, but Kanye almost messed that up, luckily he's valuable to Adidas and got his status back. If blks united back in the day, it could be crazy right now.

    • @takeflight2142

Back in the day, I wore that ish with pride, For Us By Us, most of my clothes were made by blk clothing, just said to see nothing out there, imagine if they did Kanye did to get Yeezy a household name without the meltdowns.
