Went down to gwinnett mall/discover mills few days ago and i see black people with mohawk/ Rock star cloth/ multi color shirt/ tight jeans/ weird looking shades that makes your eye look like a fly. It wasn't just one person, but a good amount of them. Thought they made fun of the white people cause they dressed like that?

    Umm... Black people have always been a part of the "rock star" scene...Considering that this is the WL I doubt you are looking for an intelligent conversation... So I guess proceed with your ignorance...

    Rock is a fusion of different sounds from different people and assuming that black people cant dress like "rock stars," I guess it's wrong for white people to dress like "hip hop" right?? Please...

    I am Puerto Rican and listen to RATM religiously as well as Del Tha Funky Homosapien, Eminem, NIN, Nas, Busta, Aventura, Sergio Mendes, Bach and Beethoven... I consider it being cultured. But I guess all this time, I have just been confused. Damn...

    Listen up...

    If some random honkeys even dress like country stars, rap stars, etc. then that's unacceptable. Jesus, this has NOTHING to do with race. If white people dressed as ridiculous as the kids we are talking about, then yes we would make a thread about them. If you went to lenox and a bunch of white kids were dressed like rappers, FUCK YES I'd be making a thread. Same goes for any race, it's not about which race is doing it, its about the fact that a huge group of one race is supporting a ridiculous trend that makes them look like fucking idiots.




    Also WHO said they can't listen to that music? No one. Who said you can't listen to that music? No one. Listening to different music and dressing like an idiot are two different things.

    Also I'm glad you mentioned you were puerto rican seeing as that is very relevant.

    Sorry but I utterly disapprove of your post and see very little to no validity to anything you said.

    You apparently are as bright as the OP. You seem to not understand what I AM TRYING TO SAY... Where you live, the music you listen to, and who you surround yourself with are extremely relevant when it comes to the style of dress that you portray to society. Regardless of your opinion on what "normal" is to you...Their style is very much so normal to them. How do you know that you dont look like a complete idiot to them???

    I dont get why it matters what one wears..

    Oh and if it isnt about "race" then why are black kids singled out??? Why not also mention the Mexican kids that are emo... White kids that are whiggers...Asian kids that try to pull the skater look off....Or hell my worst nightmare...white people and their "bro-look"
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    I hesitate to even respond, so I will just address a few points.

    Okay the urban kid, that's one thing, but if one day 50 douche bags decide all of a sudden "holy shit I'm a damn rock star" that's completely different.

    I make fun of the bro look, I make fun of a lot of arbitrary fashion like previously stated.

    Look, your taking this too far plus your stupid. I'm just confused what happened in the past year that made them dress like that. Last time i went to the mall ( year ago) black people seemed to dress like they have been for decades. Baggy jeans, shirt that stretches down to there knee, basically like a "thug". But all of a sudden there dressing like a "Rock Star".

    Thats all to it. I didn't ask what race you are or what kind of music you listen to.
