  • I'm a white boy and I dress any way I feel like, I don't care what people say about my clothes, I dress base (which is difficult to get away with in public), sometimes childish, my religion (metaphorically) is my moccasins and my purple trousers, if people get angry with this I don't care, my good isn't all about the clothes!

  • The funny part about it they believe its gangster dress that way. Where real gangsters wore suits. Nicky Barnes, Fat Cat Nichols, Frank Lucas, and Bumpy Johnson all wore suits. Thats real gangster shit.

  • the "macho" g mentallity is one of the stupidist things in human history, at the same time we shouldn't limit our view of "nice" down to 3-peice suits, button ups or whatever the 'well-dressed" fashion is. A sensible person it able to project their personality through clothes of various sorts. I think a lot of guys are unfamiliar with putting together outfits for themselves (hints the same old baggy jeans or the so called classy brotha with the same pinstripe suit as the pastor)

  • me myself i rather were sweats and a t shirt shits comfortable dress clothes are stuffy most times and i like to breath and be comfortable

  • yea young black males dont know how to carry themselves anymore.Look and act like fucking coons and buffons.Look at Dominican,Haitian,Jamaican,Cub­an and Panamanian kids dressed and are treated compared to black american kids!

  • i agree on so many levels i think its mainly the young crowd and followers scared to be they're selves but everybody not trynna be thugs or look hard that may be the clothes they can afford some ppl might not be able to afford a nice suit or polos me personally i remember wearing white t shirts bcuz thats what i could afford at the time or wearing my brothers clothes that were a size or 2 bigger but now im able to buy nice clothes i love dressing nice

  • Starring contest with malcom x

  • wearing large over sized clothes makes one look like a kid. suits are for real men.

  • i cant agree with this video i am one of them brothas who rocks the HOOD FRESH shit not the business type shit i would like to debate @macadon on this subject though.

    and another question for @macadon did you get that name "macadon" from the rapper MAC from No Limit?

  • @RottenPeachState706 Yes I did that's where I got the name from. As far as this subject goes what did I say that u disagree with

  • @macadon ok then you get some respect from me for havin' my fav rapper tied wit' PAC and the Best rapper from da South in MY humble ass opinion.

    now to the topic, i can't agree wit' ya on alot of the aspects you brought up my nigga, for one im a speak on ME & mines cuz i cant speak for "every" black male out here so im a speak on me & da niggas i "personally" know from when i was a Jit. we dont dress to "impress" niggas bruh you trippin' the first thang about when you come up in tha hood is

  • RESPECT and if you dont have respect you dont have nothin' in this world from a hood nigga perspective we internalize what is "respectable" from our Environment and project that in our everyday lives you know how it go and you sayin' shit is "gay" cuz niggas worry about what other niggas is thinkin' da fuck?? now IF you from the hood then you know dats NOT how niggas think fuck tryin' to impress niggas it's all about how WE feel

  • and da notion that one way is considered "dressing nice" and the other is so-called un-presentable is a fallacy and it's ALL about Perception and stereotypes some of the most poignant ppl i've ever known weren't niggas in suits and ties but niggas OF and FROM the block and our boy MAC can attest to that. it's NOT the outside appearance that matters but the inside the character of a man is what defines him not no damn clothes, clothes CANT determine will, virtue, or ANY qualities

  • @RottenPeachState706 But u fail to understand that u do have niggas who believe the clothes make them who they are. And never get anywhere in life, just stay stuck. I’ve said in the video clothes shouldn’t make u but unfortunately for others it does. I’ve said guys in suits are not what others assume they are but majority of time when it comes to blacks who ends up in handcuffs or caught committing a crime what are they wearing?

  • @macadon im glad you caught me on cuz i just got back but fam your point of attack is mired in stereotype itself thats why you cant see the Dead End in your analysis bro.

    #1 we ALL know america tries it's best to get rid of us they didnt so whats there next best plan take away the strong willed and the backbone and you can make us conform and what is they doin' now? if you over 21 then you can tell how the "collective" Black mind-frame has shifted since the 90's bro

  • #2 they have somethin' we dont have and that is the most Powerful tool in the world in my opinion in this new day and age and thats the MEDIA. they can project images and Slant the coverage to fit whatever agenda they see fit now tell me im wrong bruh..

    it's ALWAYS been the plan to erase us some way some how and they've succeeded in alot of aspects

    and the main one is find a "hot topic" issue so that can create a divide then they come in and drive a wedge further between us and it's workin'

  • @RottenPeachState706 In repsonse to both of your comments: No its not mired in stereotype and heres why; My man you can look and see how many brothas are in prison or arrested & pull up stats yourself on the web and not have to rely on the media potraying the images of brothas. Majority of brothas who have done what we deem as immorally wrong are not the ones in suits so its not a stereotype that is reality. The stereotype exist because these type of brothas influence that.

  • @macadon Hey, Here's a thought? Stop doing crimes??

  • WOOWWW!! You SOOO know what your talking about!! I wish all gangsters seen this. Im no gangster but i just came here to check it out and learn. Great job!!

  • True, acting so hard and 'real' is always a sign of insecurity, fear and stupidity. Fear of not expressing themselves fully. Remember the old days of rap when Schoolly-D, Grandmaster Flash and even Too Short wore tight jeans and still were gangster? So your personality, views and attitude make you not your damn clothes. Gather not material possesions but spiritual and do not worry about what to wear or what to eat like the bible says. But real niggas will never understand that unfortunately.

  • Every Gangster I have ever looked up to wore suit and ties

  • I must say that I feel that the baggy pants and shirts trends is just so tired that I don't even look at men who wear this style anymore. It is just so tired, it has been around seems like since I have been in high school, and I am nearly done with college now!

  • True 

  • co-sign all of this 110%

  • it's more than that its more the color now more than i ever seen!

  • Pants sagging came from guys that were in prison. It was a way of showing other inmates that you were easy access.

  • @southboy99 Thats a bold face lie;Dudes wore sagging pants bcuz when you get arrested they take your belts from you;your not allowed to wear belts in jail they assume you will kill or hang yuh self with them;has nothing to do with being gay who made that shit up?hahahaha mother fuckers allways taking shit off face value without researching it

  • @CrashArtSkilz Looks like you need to do some research. Dudes don't wear jeans in prison. You watch too much TV. They wear pants with the elastic band around the waist. My uncle spent 10 years in prison 1975 to 1985 and I got this from him.

  • @southboy99 lol hahahahahaha r u serious? I didn't know that.

  • @Washanen07 They may find that you have home training, but when they walk away from you, they will still wonder why in the hell you went and messed up your mouth. I even snicker at black men who do mess like this. I would never date any man who has such a strong tendency to follow the masses whether they make sense or not. This is one reason I love that bald guy that plays for the Lakers. He's so handsome and is his own man. Is not a tatted up slave.

  • great video. i only wear fittted polo shirts not too big or too small one that fits my body build. polo pants and shoes. and american eagle from time to time no sagging at all.

  • Amen to this WHOLE video. I couldn"t say it any better!!!

  • yeee so right

  • Just as a tie marks a man as serious or as astute, J's mark a man as ignorant,tacky,non-imaginative­,status quo,nothing special,which is ironic since DUMMIES pay top dollar for the shoe!! WTF?

  • @RedSkullthagreat your an idiot!if you think a tie represents intelligence then you are sadly mistaken.Niggers allways want to be accepted by white ppl now every nigga wants to be a uncle tom;nuttin wrong with wear whatever makes you comfortable'Dressed close make me feel stif an most ppl also where in as urban wear feels gud all day

  • @CrashArtSkillz & you have the nerve to call me an idiot? HA!! I'm talking about the mentality associated with dressing the way you are talking about. Jordan's are the ugliest,corniest shoes (besides Sketchers) but TRUE Uncle Toms buy them anyway bc they dont have a mind of their own. More like MONKEY see MONKEY do. U dont have to wear a suit & tie,but be CREATIVE,instead of another CLONE!

  • @RedSkullthagreat so hold up a suite an tie doesnt make you a clone?WTF?How many ppl in manhatten or any court street dont wear suites an ties?

    So what wrong with buying jordans?Is it bcuz michael Jordan isnt with NIKE any more?but its ok to support nike an reebok an all these other slave owners huh?STFU you sound stupid

  • @CrashArtSkillz No, you sound stupid than a bitch! LMAO I can tell you know 0 about life,and are really young and dumb.I'm opposed to buying UGLY ass,OVER priced dog shit looking shoes that make you look like the fool that you are for buying that shit. Especially when you could take the money you spent on them and purchase stock in Nike instead.Now,which one will MAKE you more money?It makes you look like a no class having clown.Again,u dont have to rock a suit & tie to dress with style.

  • FUCK the gay community MAC!!! LOL Don't pander to those muthafucka either,as they play a big part in the mess we are in. Having said that ,alot of these MANGINAS are in LOVE with Jordans and looking TACKY as fuck!! Jordans SUCK,and mark you as tacky ass nigga!! Look at some of these SUCKAS here on YT that make JORDAN COLLECTION VIDS!! WTF? This is the type of mentality that stems directly from single mothers!!

  • i hate baggy jeans but i like skinny jeans

  • Most fashion trends in urban black culture derive from imprisoned blacks, most are gays.

    IE: How one's pants worn below the ass-crack marks "property" belonging to another (gay) inmate. Yummy, right?

    Baggies were tolerable enough, but revealing the draws. Dudes wearing pigtails? Cam'ron wears pink, so niggas wear pink?

    I insist ya'll keep the trends, tho. You make me appear more appealing towards folks with high-end assets & network. If all wore classy I'd have more competition.

  • Hell, I'll ask you out, lol. When I was stationed in Virginia, black women would look at me strange. One even asked me if I was gay. But when I was in Dallas, black most of the black women I came accross did appreciate it.

  • Where in the hell can I find black women that appreciate a well groomed and dressed man? I used to dress like that all the time but black women will not take you serious.

  • @southboy99 groomed you mean the rapist face no facial whatsoever?

    Actually no hair on your face was away of greek knowing they were homosexuals;When you get a hair cut thats low ceasar the term ceasar cums from the greek prince or kings that were faggs!

    Also alot of the clubs that dont want the backward hats an sneakers or sports jerseys etc is away for them to profile black or hispanic men they even tell the they cant wear white t shirts;Cmon:

  • @CrashArtSkillz I'm not aware of any greek culture or customs. I'm talking about today. Just because a guy dresses nice or GQ black women automatically think you are gay. Hell, in prison, if you wore sagging pants, that was a sign for another dude to get the booty. I'm not joking. I would rather have a clean nice look, than some pants sagging clown.

  • @southboy99 seems as though you know nothing my boy;Jail is always b4 prison they wear their normal clothes in most jails an that trend leads to them doing it when they get up state in prison.I been in an out of jail since I was 16 over 3 felonies i know more about it then you

    Not Bragging niether actually embarassed but I have turned over a new lead

    Thank The Most High Yahawada

  • @CrashArtSkillz Dude, this is not a recent trend. What are you like 25 now? The trend of guys in prison wearing their pants low started in the 70's. My uncle use to scream at me if I wore my pants like that. And that is the reason he told me to never wear my pants like that. This was when I was 14. I'm 37 now. I think a guy doing 10 years in prison has more cred than someone sitting in county jail or juvi.

  • @southboy99 Yes,I get negative reactions from a few black ladies but not many.

  • @southboy99 That has nothing to do with being more credible

    Ppl been going to church all they life an didnt know that God hates christmas an that easter is the worship of a fertility God;Ppl have been going to school all their life and think the word Belief is the same as knowing;

    I've been in Prison never in juvie

    Thanks for playing im 30 an I guarante i know more about History then you know His-story older doesnt mean wiser

  • @southboy99, I don't know where you've been looking! I am looking for a quality, well-dressed, nicely cleaned black man. I take a man very seriously. The women you've dated is not real ladies. I am a real lady and treat myself like it -always!

  • @southboy99 The women you are not looking at! You can't dress nice and have a taste in ghetto trash women. I am not trying to be funny - it's like putting a clean sheet in a pig pen. The pig is not going to give it any real regard. If you want to be appreciated for how you dress - appreciate and don't over look the women who DO appreciate a nicely groomed man.

  • @Lyme70 Never said I had a taste for ghetto trash women. I hate hoodrats. I don't even deal with women who have kids.

  • @southboy99 You sure donot deal with women who have kids, thats funny because it always the one who say I don't deal are the very same ones who do deal.

  • @vinoivoire2 Oh please, I worked too hard to get where i'm at to waste my time on someone who did'nt. 

  • Its all about your personal style. If that's what they like to wear I don't understand why people care. Why does what they decide to wear matter? I'm sure anyone else would feel uncomfortable if people were coming at them trying to change their dress simply because they didn't like it. If you don't like t-shirts and baggy pants then you don't have to wear them. But don't think just because you don't like them everyone else should agree. Fashion is nothing but opinion.

  • The dressing should go with the english!!

  • i dress baggy and my reason is cuz i feel good in it. don't care what people think of it cuz it don't mean i'm trying to be "hard" i listen to rock, pop, j-pop, elecrto, electronic, electronica, dance, classic, reggae, soca, not much not much hip-hop, very little rap.

    i say "dude" all the time. use the "like" like a valley girl uses it ( i do). never use the "n" word and people still judge me by my clothes before i get within 10 feet of them.... i'm like "dude... seriously?"

    it sucks.....

  • Totaly agree, but not just black men. There are plenty of white men also who could stand to class up their wardrobes.

  • It seems to me that black men are beginning to pull their pants up more often. I believe it is just a fad and will fade away one day just as gold teeth are beginning to do. A lot of black men don't like weave and it is only common sense to understand why many black women do not like men who wear clothes that are entirely too big for them. It does look rather sloppy but the funny thing is that many of these saggy jeans cost 200 bucks or more. A lot to pay and still look sloppy or downlow.

  • Thats what I'm saying you pay all this money for some jeans but your saggin in them and it looks foolish. Showing your draws out in public that is very downlow.

  • @SamsCall you dont have to dress for success ppl dress to impress but a suite doesnt make you a great person mobs wear suites an shoot up everything the goverment do also an they are allways looking for agendo to kill hurt rob steal or colonise some ones land.

    I agree with the sagging pants but the biggest problem with BP is not dress code its there morals with God

  • @CrashArtSkillz You speak much truth here, Crash. Our problem is moral. We are killing each other more than cancer is. More black women are killing their unborn babies than white women are. Most blacks are not aware that more than 3,000 black babies go into dumpsters every single week. THIS IS A FACT! Then you have black rappers sellin out their peope for bling bling and money while demoralizing the mind of young black people. It is truly sad...the plight of black people.

  • what about women showing thongs and behind tattoos

  • shit i dress for myself

  • you are so right dress for the ladies not the men, dress for sucess not for a mess. dress like a man and maybe you will be treated like one. .

    pants hanging below the booty: hommies, hommo, ain't that a shame. most of them are on the down low. they fool no one except themselves.

    the church is not helping casual day everyone looks like they just left the club. what is happening to our people.

  • I completely agree! There is nothing more attractive than a well dressed well groomed man. I really can't understand the need to look like a thug all the time. IMO If you are still dressing like you did at sixteen it's a reflection of where you are mentally and emotionally. I agree that young black men should dress according to the occasion.

  • Thank you for addressing this topic! Most guys where I'm from actually think that sagging pants will get them a date or they think it's cute, but it just looks like they are gay or just got out of prison to me.

  • I love a guy who wear fitted stylish cloths...I love man who wear nice polo or a nice t-shirt with fitted pants it doens't have to be saggy but nice enough to where it's not falling off or hanging of their butts.

  • Marry me!! men listen up preach (african girl an I dont look like no Zulu bitch if ya know what I mean hahahah (Joke!!)

  • In my book, if you dress like a thug from the ghetto, you ARE a thug from the ghetto. That's why I don't dress like a thug or like I'm from the ghetto, since I'm not from the ghetto anyway. I'm black and proud to not be a thug.

  • lol ok 7 hours later -.-

    I got complements lol =D

    (most were women)

    the formula works!

  • @bevon17: hahaha! spread the word!

  • a matter of fact. I'm about to wear a button up to school today just for the inspired

  • lol i love this dude

    good stuff!
