Turn Back Thursday: Kanye and A-Trak

October 22, 2009 | Category: Turn Back Thursday | Author: John (admin)

In 2004, Kanye West released The College Dropout, which did a very effective job of bridging the gap between mainstream rappers and backpackers. Not only did he revolutionize the radio with his soul samples and conscious rap style, but he changed the rap uniform forever. Kanye spearheaded a movement that made it cool to wear Ralph Lauren and collared shirts when everyone else in the rap community was wearing a jersey and oversized shirts. Here’s a photo of A-Trak and Kanye from 2004, when Kanye ’s outfit usually consisted of bright colors, a popped collar, and Polo.

    Oh, I live and die buy Ralph Lauren, but suprisingly not when he wore it. Everybody was wearing it..too bright.

    I prefer Polo over Ralph Lauren sometimes, then vice versa
