My Fashion Icons in the Game!!

Kanye West aka The LV DON

4REAL aka Skateboard P.

Tyga Tyga!!

Ok..so Kanye, Pharrell, and Tyga are all my fashion icons in the game right now. Don't get me wrong, there rhymes are dope and everything but it's their unique fashion sense that stands out to me the most. I've been a big fan of Kanye when he first started out in the rap game, before he even had his own music video lol. I first seen him in Twista's "Slow Jams" video feat. Jamie Foxx and he wasnt wearing anything close to what he rapped about in some of his songs. (Polo by Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, Versace, etc.) But not long after that did he literally begin wearing what he rapped lol. Than in 2006 along with Gwen Stefani and many others, He was listed as one of Vanity Fair's International Best Dressed. I've also been a big fan of Pharrell
since his days with the rock/hip-hop group N.E.R.D with Chad Hugo. He had some dope rhymes and produced songs for alot of artists such as Jay-Z, Britney Spears, Clipse, and many more. But the thing I admired most about Pharrell was the way he dressed and his clothing lines (Billionaire Boys Club & Ice Cream Clothing). I only have a BBC T-shirt that my cousin bought me for my 15th b-day which I was really excited about lol. I'm not really a big fan of the BBC and Ice Cream Clothing, but I really admire what he has done with the brand. Last but not least Tyga Tyga lol. Ok so basically like I said in my recent post about Tyga, the reason I admire his style is because of his unique fashion sense. His style is kind of a mix of Rockstar/Preppy/Nerd look, and I think thats a trend of 2009. His music is real dope too. He has a couple of mixtapes out now, one of them I was recently listening too called "The Potential" and it was pretty hot. I believe that he really does have potential to be a major part of the rap game lol. I'm out..God Bless. Peace.
