WoooHah: Hip-hop artists and their clothing lines...

by THEYETI

FRIDAY DECEMBER 14, 2007

Some say beat boxing is the unofficial 5th element of hip-hop. Others say it's fashion. Whatever the case, 2007 has been the year of the hip-hop artist clothing line. Maybe it's the goal to reach the levels of Sean John or Rocawear or maybe to just be able to have your own fashion sense out there. Although both those labels got as many haters as lovers...there is no denying Jay and Diddy put hip-hop fashion on the map in a major way.

Just this year Three Six Mafia, Jim Jones, Young Buck, Andre Benjamin and Kanye West all have clothing lines or plan to launch soon. Some good...some bad...some maybe will never get off the ground. Any of you own any of this? Would you buy and wear any of this? Thing we never hear about are the lines that aren't doing so good. They just kinda fade away. Check out some clothing lines here....

Fabolous: Rich Yung Society
Fabulous
Fab's clothing line launched last year and uses his trademark "wings" in all of his designs. Rich Yung is named after his style of being Rich & Young. So far the line is limited to boutique stores in a couple of major states. Shirts go for $55 a pop.

Jim Jones: Nostic
Launched in the middle of this year, Jones' clothing line Nostic is also on a smaller scale limited to places like Dr. Jays and select boutique shops. His line plays close to the whole goth/rocker/hip-hop trend that I thought was dead now.

Young Buck: David Brown Clothing
Young Buck did the whole viral video thing including an intro to his David Brown Clothing line on his official site davidbrownclothing.com. This has been in "relaunching soon" status for awhile now so who knows when this will actually be happening. He has the clothes though...most of the stuff Buck wears....is his own line.David_brown
