From an attire aspect .... ranging from virtually every era in NYC rappers who were on top for regardless of the duration of time they we're poppin set notable trends From Slick Rick Wu tang , Nas , Jay , Camron (Dipset In General) , Max B .... but now that I think about it 50 lacked that fly characteristic that most NYC rappers possessed ... shyt I recall my moms purchasing me a Gunit shirt and I wore it too the park and the older niccas roasted me into the next century ... mind you this is summer of 05 when G-unit/50 was at its peak in popularity

A variation of du rags and fitted w/ the white T was fifs default wardrobe for the entire 2000s even after Dipset put bagged clothes to a cease fif still continued to sport that until probably earlier this decade

So basically my question is what's stated in the title , was fif one of the first NYC rap superstars to not usher in a new wave of style / swag :ld:

Jay Z put jerseys to a closure for the mature appearance and Nas made waves prominent what fashion style has fif pioneered

swag isnt just about clothes. camron walked round wearing pink. it wasnt because pink clothes were cool. its because cam had so much swag he could literally wear anything and it would be cool.

i think you are talking about fashion not swag.

His musical swag was slept on though...listen to Power of a Dollar and tell me that album is not ahead of its time. He was doing all of the things that NY rappers do now aka riding the south wave and making the music stand out in other ways than just being another Ny rapper with a razor under his tongue.
