i know a leading question, ripe for controversy seriously though is rmc a hip-hop brand or does it appeal to a wider audience?

[Shin6gc]

RMC is not a hip hop brand. it's a designer brand that consist of both art and style. it appeals to different crowds and it's especially popular with HIP HOP cultures cause of it's design. hip hop / rap artist likes to be different, like huge chrome rims, gold grills (teeth), bling blings and apparel wise it'll be RMC, BBC, etc..

i agree, rmc transcends one musical genre. i dont even like hip-hop but rate rmc as one of the best designer brands money can buy.

Yeah at 36 years old I am hardly Hip Hop material, however although I find RMC appeals to younger people than me, I like it because of its link to Oriental Culture ( which I have always had an interest in) and the outright quality of the brand, plus if I am honest its exclusivity.

yep, i like the way martin entwines culture and contemporary design to create useable art.

HIP HOP is a culture started in the 70's had a part of gang culture in NEW YORK CITY. UP ROCKING, BREAK DANCING, GRAFFITI AND RAPPING. IT WAS A WAY OUT FOR A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE TO ESCAPE THE POVERTY AND VIOLENCE WE GREW TO ACCEPT AS NORMAL. THE KIDS NOW DON.T KNOW WHAT HIP HOP IS. IT'S A WAY OF LIFE A WAY OF DRESS AND A FORM OF SONG AND ART. IT IS NOT WHAT THE WORLD SEE AND THINKS WHAT IT IS. IT'S DEEP IT'S A FORCE THAT INFLUNCES THE WORLD THE MUSIC THE STYLES. AND SO MUCH MORE MY FRIEND DUNNY.

I don't think anyone else could have expressed it like Bobby did there!

bobby just said everything perfectly! my english is not good enough to participate on this discussion.
rmc is not a brand for hip hoppers only, but with it´s different design from other clothing it´s attractive to most hip hoppers, especially nowadays - where hip hop clothing is getting more and more fancy

[Shin6gc]

yea. i saw hip hop went from BAPE to RMC then later ed hardy or something else lol.
