Hang on. Someone explain this shit to me…what’s with rappers and the punk gear? Lady Gaga did it like 2 years ago, and I am seeing it more and more. I don’t believe for a second that Lil’ Wayne has ever heard Anti-Cimex, DIRT, or Aus-Rotten. I’m not mad, but I just don’t get it. Is it just cause it looks cool? If so, fine, whatever, it does look cool. But I don’t hear punk bands having influence on rap or hip-hop at all (say for Doomtree, maybe Death Grips and a few others). Either musically or lyrically. And that goes double for Lil’ Wayne and Tyga.I could put, literally, thousands of words to the page about how punk bands like those on Wayne’s vest run totally counter to the ideas YMCMB presents through their music and lifestyle, but that’s for another time. I just want to know…what gives?
