These racist instances from companies like Gucci are staged promo to turn black customers away.

wrong....

90% of the gucci you see in the HOOD and most black people rocking in the CLUBS is FAKE BOOTLEG SHYT ANYWAY...

my homeboy who has a shop in the flea market down in DUVAL says.....GUCCI IS STILL HIS TOP BRAND AS FAR AS BELTS and BAGS...

people in the streets aren't concerning themselves with boycotting this brand...

Political and racial correctness is the last thing on common folk's mind when they trying to look "fly"

simply put even if they are "offended" they (our people) will simply find another EUROPEAN BRAND to throw thier dollars and loyalty to ....

so at the end of the day this boycott is meaningless

one rapper promoted boycott isn't enough to turn back the tide of insecurity..materialism ...consumerisim and material attachment that has plagued black people for such a long long time

I knew either c00ns and white supremacists was go feel a way about that post. No way a pro black person taking up for gucci going bankrupt in a few years due to black people saying "FCK GUCCI WE ONLY SUPPORTING AND BUYING FULLY OPENED BLACK BRANDS". gucci dead in the black community fck em. Along with papa johns who was begging for the black community to forgive them. Same with the nfl. The super bowl ratings this year it was the lowest it's ever been due to the black community saying fck the nfl and the duoer bowl. gucci already issuing out apologies back to back. That shxt ain't go work. All these racist pieces of shyts doing this lil corny shyt every other month ain't doing nothing but bringing the black community closer and closer every time. We eating at black owned restaurants, shopping at black owned clothing stores, women going to black owned nail shops, etc... Fck all these racist pieces of shyt stores and brands and fck any lame c00n that go against the grain of the black community by still going to these racist pieces of shyts. And fck anybody on this forum defending any c00n or bullshyt racist brands.

you're the same single mom who was boasting about taking your kids on a conscious trip to AFRICA

and you don't know what ADOS means??? :why:

good gracious they should have never let your dysfunctional single mother azz become a parent :ufdup:

Why don't you have a little respect and give that black woman some guidance.
It wasn't long ago you were apoligizing for your drunken ramblings,and nobody held that against you.
Don't hold her possibly being loose at one time in her life against her,we aren't in her bedroom to know whats going on today:henbron:
ADOS is a term invented to replace the term African American,because black people don't want to claim Africa anymore,and would prefer to claim our history as told by the white man:respect:

Of course its publicity. These brands dont want to be associated with 'lower class' people like rappers or athletes. It's a chance to turn away black people while getting free publicity and advertising from the mainstream media. There isnt really such a thing as genuine controversy when it is coming from a private company. It is literally just another form of marketing.

If you still rock Gucci in 2019, you're free to be doing so but you'll have to be okay with the fact that people may look at you as a sellout or a whole clown.

what the hell are u talking about man??

Dapper dan been fighting cease and desit letters and lawsuits from the house of GUCCI since his prime time years doing business in HARLEM during the 80s

if anything Dan like most "bootleggers" has always sought VALIDATION from these europeans....

and eventually got it when STEVE STOUTE'S company "translation inc." created the marriage between these two in that deal last year...

Steve+Stoute+Dapper+Dan+2018+Roc+Nation+Pre+Zqa0kTV7yrMl.jpg


Steve+Stoute+Gucci+Arrivals+Milan+Fashion+PbJO4dStnDql.jpg




the whole intent of Stoute's company is assimilate urban culture into the european dominated corporate and mainstream culture

so in the end WE AS BLACK FOLKS SHOULD BE MAD AT OURSELVES THINKING GUCCI IS REALLY OUR "FRIENDS" instead of realizing IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL..and just because someone makes MONEY OFF YOU or WITH YOU don't mean they LIKE YOU :manny:

that's our problem WE AS BLACK FOLKS WANT EVERYBODY TO BE OUR FRIEND...but we ain't even FRIENDS WITH OURSELVES

we rather BE CONSUMERS seeking validation from those THAT DON'T LIKE US...instead of bossing up in our own world and empowering our own

we need more CREATORS and LESS CONSUMERS...

and our BLACK CELEBRITIES are poisoning us with this mentality...

no different than OPRAH when she raised hell cause HERMES treated her with her" racial disrespect"

im like KHALID MUHAMMAD of the NOI once said...

"black people are retarded.....how the hell you gonna get ANGRY cause your OPRESSOR don't want you in his establishment???....WHY DON'T YOU HAVE THAT SAME PASSION TOWARDS CREATING YOUR OWN ESTABLIHSMENT?


Im talking about a Gucci designer stealing one of Dapper Dans designs and people getting upset about cultural appropriation.
Thanks, Internet Outrage! Now Dapper Dan and Gucci Are Buds
Easier to set up a botique than to fight court cases,plus like homie said intelligently,they probably are trying to get the money from both sides.
This post would be correct and I couldn't agree more, this is righteous talk.

Nah that ain't the case. gucci wants the coolest group in America to sport they shyt. That's why they issuing out all kinds of apologies back to back and even getting out free gucci to black people. The owner went to Harlem with dapper Dan to apologize to the black community. They begging for us to fck with them and forgive them but the black community aint fcking with gucci no mo periodt. They dead in the black community. The black community only fcking with black owned brands now thanks to gucci and Floyd and Kodak. Fck gucci

They signed him so he can make shyt for nikkaz and they want nikkaz to leave the other shyt alone lmao

no i don't think so at all...

in my opinion...

GUCCI knew it had mad appeal amongst black folks...... they don't mind blacks buying thier shyt...

just visit the Gucci store near lennox square over at phipps plaze in ATL ....

they is not BLACKBALLING no pun intended any black consumer be it a rapper....athelte or corporate guy with some dollars to spare on a outfit...

it's BUSINESS ..nothing PERSONAL

if anything

here was a way for them to further capitilize on it without having to spend big marketing dollars to cater to the urban community or turn off thier target audience.... "wealthy high end fashion loving caucasians"...

it's like two birds with one stone

you got a guy like dapper dan who knows the appeal of gucci to the urban community and can tailor it in a way the old white desigerners wouldn't...

it's a marketing plan....he has the urban hip hop crowd and they as white designers can have both worlds ...the blacks and the whites to profit off of ...

and DAPPER DAN and STEVE ARE AWARE OF IT....that's what translation was about....MAINSTREAM DESIGNGERS like GUCCI wanted in ...without comprimising and URBAN DESIGNERS wanted in that MAINSTREAM world without comprising themselves as well

and it became a marriage...

yeah shyt got mad awkward with this blackface costume.......but let's be real nikkas ARE NOT LEAVING THIS BRAND ALONE TO GO SUPPORT BLACK OWNED BRANDS :ufdup:

the OWNERS of FUBU tried that shyt in the past.....


it doesnt' work.....NEGROES LIKE EUROPEAN BRANDS like they cherish LIGHT AND WHITE WOMEN...

it's a STATUS SYMBOL
