Its a waste of time when the clothes aint even cool anymore. Same with rocawear let all fake brands die. Stick to quality shit thats be around...like Levi's and maybe Nike if you dont feel bad for supporting child labor and overpaying for shoes but they do got some good comfortable sneakers even tho they cost pennies to make and sell em for 150$ plus.

@ Ol_Skool_K
that title should be for Fab 5 Freddy. But Russel was the one who really had the vision of Hip-Hop fashion, since he got the RUN-DMC Addidas deal. But Karl Kani came earlier introducing a clothing line.
Brother built a factory in South Central that time to do the production.

Ol_Skool_K — Sat, 25 Aug 2007 01:24:52 GMT

@Asher "BB" Sommer
Oh definitely much respect to Fab 5 Freddy, Kool Herc, and Bambaata too, but Russell Rush took it to another level. Fab 5, Herc and Bam definitely deserve the Godfathers of Hip-Hop title though.....

all you dummies hating on this man for showing us how to be successful without being pimped by the white man need to pick up a book. yall keep on thinking that being a rapper will get you out. don't be a rapper, be the ceo of a rap label so you make the money and not the white man sittn upstairs allowing you to get on tv acting a fool while he's laughing all the way to the bank. let this man be an example stop hating. if it weren't for him you wouldn't have not rap

@clown chekka2323

And the rest of y'all trying to take up for Russ...Okay Russ was one of the most influential black people of our era but he ain't above everything just because of it..He always had a white boy pulling strings right along with him so it ain't like he didn't require the white boys help whether it was Rick Rubin or Lyor...He didn't just make Def Jam by himself and without the white man he couldn't have done it..Do your history before y'all start commenting..He started Def Jam with a white boy in his college dorm room..Russ was a weedhead and cokehead back in the days and he's so quick to criticize everybody else..This ni99a letting his people get killed in Africa for them blood diamonds but do that bitch @ss shit with Al Sharpton hating on Vick..To tell you the truth Master P showed young ni99az how to get that money more than Russ did and to say there wouldn't be no rap without him is ridiculous..Do y'all ni99az think Def Jam was the only record label back then? If it wasn't for him and them clowns at Def Jam rap wouldn't have been commercialized and going through the problems it's going through now..Then the bitch ni99a say some shit about banning the "N" word but he could've been doing that with his record label from the start if that's what he wanted but he's turning into a lil Al and doing shit just for the attention...Everybody know Def Jam right along with a lot of the other record companies gave ni99az them fucked up deals back in the day too..That's why all the old heads that were on Def Jam ain't there no more..Hell, if LL left what that tell you..

Yeah ya'll need to stop hating on Russ. When he was doin his thing at Def Jam everyone on this board was on his nuts. That being said, I didn't know people still even wore Phat Farm. I'm sure Baby Phat make 10 times as much as Phat Farm do now. Just gimmie some Rocawear or Sean John and I'm good. Hell, I even wear Enyce or Akademiks before Phat Farm.

Leave it to a Nigga to bite the hand feeding him. You know what keeps cats in the hood?
Being comfortable as a second or third class citizen,
Climbing and clawing when you could be flying,
Disrespecting the people who get up and reach down,
Believing that there is honor in ignorance...

This kind of self-hate and bashing of the ones who teach and lead is the reason Malcom X is dead. The reason Jesus was stoned before he died. The reason why Tupac started a coast on coast war and the reason why Big had to die too.

Y'all Niggas better start checking the time cause ain't nobody gonna save you when the world starts to really fall apart. When the power's out and oil is in short supply. Y'all sitting around trying to stack dollars that are quickly becoming worthless on the world scale and spending money to buy the devil's candy. Eating posion kills people. You injest that shit the industry force feeds artists and call it new and good, that shit ain't new or good, it's poison. You think somebody stopped trying to kill the poor and dark skinned peoples of the world just cause slavery is "over" and the bathrooms are desegregated? You call the woman who loves you out of her name and the "man" says : "see"; You fill your mouth full of metal and rocks that rot your teeth and the "man" says : "see"; You spend your life trying to harden you heart and turn love into loyalty and the "man" says : "see". Then when some white man trying to be cool says to you what you say to yourself, you say : "see". But do you see? Do you see with the divine and perfect eyes that your ancestors gifted to you? No, you cloud your eyes with lies and shades. You avoid the sun, the god of your ancestors, and worship money, the god of your enslavers. You, refuse to leave the ghetto that imprisons you in poverty and obscurity, right where they want you. And what do you say to those who RUN FREE OR DIE, you say "SELLOUT", you say "TRAITOR", because you will not see and your music is too loud to hear. The day you become comfortable in Hell is the day Heaven becomes impossible.

DREAM BIGGER DREAMS!
YOUR ANCESTORS COULD FLY, WHY WON'T YOU SPREAD YOUR WINGS?
BABYLON IS FALLEN, FALLEN; BABYLON IS BURNING AND HER ASHES CLOUD THE SKY...
Save your soul, eternity is coming.

I like some Phat Farm gear, but it's just not my first preference. But I got some sneakers I love and I have nothing against the brand.
I like variety and healthy competition whether it's clothes or music :)
