And black people wonder why were getting pushed out of our neighborhoods so easily. So quick to drop money on some dumb shyt tryin' to front while owning 0 in appreciating assets. I brush shoulders with well off folks and you wouldn't be able to tell they were wealthy just by looking at them. Most of them wear regular inexpensive clothes and drive medium range to older model cars, but will live in 800k to million dollar plus homes that will continue to appreciate in value. SMH. Black people got the entire game ass backwards.
I swear some of y'all are at minimum sub conscious dikk eaters man. The first part has some truth in it but that's not the only reason (some get that deal and move is another) so nothing to really say there. That second part makes me so sad. Y'all just love to be on y'all's Kanye white people get money and don't spend it shyt don't ya? It's a stereotype but definitely not reflective of most white people at all esp if they not millionaire next door type of millionaires. Nothing wrong with that at all but you will usually live different from somebody that's not a mnd type.

It's a clownish, overblown article with racist intent, so let's leave that to the side, but let's be real for a second- that ski mask is absurd and hilarious. And who wants to wear a white tee with leather epaulets? :scusthov:
You trying act like these Brooklyn hipsters in Williamsburg won't buy that shyt :usure:

:pacspit: this cac. He's basically saying a nikka who came from Marcy has no right to charge premium/ couture level prices.
only cacs can. but nobody says anything when ASAP talks about Raf Simmons and Rick Owens who both make 800+ t-shirts 2200+ shoes and boots.

let a nikka say some shyt about ralph lauren (grew up in the Bronx) who's black and purple label cost 3 times hov's collection. :mjpls:

regardless of what he thinks justifies the price, the writer obviously has been and shopped at barney's, so i'm 1000% sure it's not the first time he's seen a collection and raised an eyebrow at the price. you don't go to barney's or bendels or saks to get a deal. you aren't going in there to see if you can stay within your budget. the people that do that shouldn't be there in the first place. barney's and all other stores like it appeal and retain a customer base that don't have spending limits. a few years ago i went in the Prada store and saw a pair of tights for $900! i couldn't believe anyone would pay a G for tights that cost $3. you know what though? it's in the store because they know exactly what they can charge for what.
:ohhh:

first they were making it about injustice and racism and now they're outraged at price justification. wow, a liberal cac pseudo journalist, probably paying $3500+ for a 1.5 bedroom in NYC, pretending to be concerned about inflated clothing prices.....GTFO.

I dont like how he goes out of his way to chastise the prices Jay-z's apparell is selling for in the middle of a store like barneys that has thousands of other items similiarly priced.

If he was going to shyt on the price of the clothes he should have done it on the basis of the quality of the clothes, the craftsmanship of the clothes or something along those lines. For him to be in the middle of a store like barneys criticizing over priced apparel is a joke.

This is what the author of this article looks like

If the Jay z shyt is high quality shyt then why cant he price it like the rest of the shyt in barneys?

If George Bush can send drones to bomb brown babies why can't Obama?

Stop using these savages as a measuring stick for morality..Who are they to be equaled too?

Fukk Barney's, Fukk the cac that wrote this article & Fukk Jay-Z....

It's not an either or scenario or about chosing the lesser of the evils...

Why not go for a price people can afford? The market for high end price/low end quality clothes is huge, why not go into a different lane. This isn't like shoes where nikkas will pay through the roof for shyt. Hoodies, jeans, and tees are always gonna move more numbers at the $40-100 price range.

Someone is gonna make bank when they figure that out. This high end shyt is tacky and "fashion gurus" laugh at that shyt. Same with Kanye, can you imagine how easy he could take over with affordable "fashionable" clothes instead of $700 leather sweat pants ideas?

Jay has beefed with my daily forever, they are the ones starting all the rumors about him. From paying Un a million to saying he was selling out Brooklyn with Barclays center to Robert DeNiro.

These cAcs think they are cool because of c00n ass Jay-z haters supporting them at any given time. Probably sending them emails and thanking them and shyt.
