@Iptihaj---thats really stereotypical..all of us arent like that. Me for example, im not like that. I feel as if u put every black guy on blast as being disrespectful or having an attitude...whats up with that???

Thank You Esquire for putting together such an unbelievable idea!... i truly love this!.. btw.. that picture of pharrell is extremely old... i remember seeing that in a men;s fashion magazine like 2 or 3 years ago... just saying.
RosJen28 | August 16, 2008
@Iptihaj - Ummm. Yea you need to pray.. but not for no white dude... Not for any dude with that mentality. I feel you tho.. it's hard to find a good brotha out there! But that don't mean you gotta discount the whole race of black men over one stupid one... You just sell yourself short because when you can have 2 handfulls of guys to pick from, now you only have 1 handfull because the other handfull might be black.. Maybe this is too complicated... Anyhow.. all I'm sayin is... There are some good brothas out there... (even tho I've yet to find mine.. but I am single by choice.. workin on my career). I'm mixed but there's nothing like a black di... umm, ok I'll shut up now.. LOL!
RosJen28 | August 16, 2008

Nice post. I love how bad the fit was in the 80s. Double pleated pants, baggy coats. We peaked in the 50s-60s and I think we're getting it back now though. Thanks for this one Kanye, it was great. http://www.myspace.com/jacobtheproducer

that's really cool, I'm a girl but I'm really really into mens fashion...i think i'm obsessed with purple and black label from ralph lauren, and the mens style in japanese modeled site yesstyle.com, I love when women dress slightly masculine but not overshadowing their femininity. Woman suits and all that, it's just all so cool, so i really appreciate this post.
forcemajeure | August 17, 2008
Love it. Kanye... just saw your vision in an Absolutworld.
Njordan317 | August 17, 2008
WOW... how is all black guys get knocked cuz someone thought it would be a good idea to try n get with the gangsta type??? Its ok tho cuz it just goes to show how shallow chicks are now a days... so us black dudes are better off ;-)
BenJamYn | August 17, 2008

SoloPoloVision | August 17, 2008
That's awesome, it's interesting to see how shit like this evolves, especially when you put it all together.
