Its ironic that most if these brands went under because the artists themselves starting hyping up all these euro clothing designers as they got rich. Not realizing theyd influence regular people to start wearing gucci and prada and shyt.
Basically sabotaged themselves. Fashion should’ve been a black dominated industry instead its italian or whatever

this is revisionist history. It’s fashion it would never outlasted it’s time

Fashion lasted as long as the popularity of the artist behind each brand. There are still popular artists today. where are their brands? Why are they all promoting Gucci instead of their own shyt?

It's not a fad because most of these dumbass rapper still have people behind the scenes trying to push their own branded products. Instead of promoting it though they wear Gucci everywhere. And they don't make any profit by giving gucci free promotion. Gucci isn't sponsoring all of these rappers. Example Why is Kodak Black always wearing Gucci and Versace when he has a Snyper Gang clothing line?

Jay z wore Gucci at the height of roc a wear. I’m not getting your point here

rapper clothing lines don’t work anymore just like current basketball players shoes being fashionable don’t work anymore

Jay-z is the one the started this low key, but even he started out promoting Roc-a Wear. That only supports my point, not sure what you're not getting. and basketball players are still getting shoe deals (you don't see them rocking nikes when they are sponsered by reebok) so not sure why you brought that up either. You seem stupid low key. Negged.
