Lil Wayne Plans To Launch His First Clothing Line "Rebirth"

First, it was rumors of Kanye showing at NY Fashion week. Now, we learn that Lil Wayne himself is dipping into the fashion pool. The rapper plans to launch his clothing line “Rebirth” so everyone can “be funky” like him. We all know how hard it is for rappers to juggle their careers while tending to their failing clothing ventures, so let’s hope this is a successful endeavor for Lil Tunechi’s growing empire.

Style Spotlight: URK Clothing

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing the creator, owner & designer of URK Clothing Yaissel Tuti Medina. We happily discussed the past, present and future of URK Clothing along with some great input from her assistant manager Stephany Alvarez. Be sure to check them out online and follow them on twitter @URKClothing

1. The first question I always love to ask is, where did the inspiration

come form to create your own clothing line?

Yaissel: Well, I always designed my own t-shirts ever since Middle School then in

High School I started wearing it more often since we didn't have a dress

code. I designed for myself which made URK Clothing basically a private

line. In October of 2010 I decided to make it into a public line so

everyone can have access to the clothing I designed.

2. What is the meaning behind the name U.R.K. (Us Raw Kids)?

Stephany: Us Raw Kids is a statement to us, that no matter how old you are

you still have a cool kid deep inside, we find it important for people to

remember that you live one life, and you need to enjoy it.

3. How involved are you with the production of every garment for your line?

Yaissel: Very involved. I like to make sure everything goes right and if

things go wrong, I like to be able to fix it before it’s too late. I like to

oversee and double check during the process. From the company that makes

my t-shirts to the company that prints them its a family you know. I don't

see it as a job, I see us as a big family and at the end of the day you

must be comfortable with who produces the products for your company.

Tyga - Snapbacks Back feat. Chris Brown (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

The origins of who brought the new movement of snapbacks to 2011 is unclear, but Tyga and Chris Brown are claiming full responsibility. They shockingly rock the Meek Mill and Rick Ross "Tupac Back" instrumental for it and Breezy sounds a bit angry on the second verse. Who is he firing shots at? Snapbacks are really back, though?

Bedwin & The Heartbreakers x Lee – ‘Holly’ Original Fit Raw Denim Pants | stupidDOPE.com
It may have been awhile since you last heard of Lee jeans making a splash but here they are. In a collaboration with Japanese clothing brand, Bedwin & The Heartbreakers, Lee returns to the spotlight with a nifty pair of jeans that we wouldn’t mind rocking with a pair of fresh kicks.

Bedwin & The Heartbreakers linked with Lee to create a raw denim jean they refer to as Holly. The jeans come in a slim silhouette with classic Lee gold stitching and highlights of red show on the back Lee logo, back pocket stitching and pocket rivets. If you like the way these jeans look against the Converse in the gallery below, you can grab a pair from Bedwin & The Heartbreakers dealers or Intention Online store in Japan.

Meek Mill (Feat. Rick Ross & Swizz Beatz) - Reebok Back

“It that time again” for Rick Ross to unload his infamous grunt with a hard growl in the latest video for “Reebok Back” by Meek Mill featuring Swizz Beatz. Rick Ross will not be caught “chasing” anything outside of “money” in his “Swizz Beatz edition” of Reebok sneakers. The self-proclaimed “baller” does not consider the sneakers to be “classic” but a “basic” pair of sneakers that allows his “youngin” Meek Mill to “hog up” the screen for a new video. Swizz Beatz appears to believe that with the help of Meek Mill & Rick Ross that he can have the streets lacing up & wearing the “highs & lows” that he is offering with the video for “Reebok Back.” Meek Mill is confident that he can “rock” the “pumps” because he is a “Self-Made” artist riding in a “600 Benz” who “swags” in his “dreams.”

The video for “Reebok Back” was directed by Spiff TV. The video features cameos from Busta Rhymes & DJ Khaled.
