While we may not have a pistol that goes BANG BANG, BOOM BOOM, POP POP, I can for sure say that we are fashion killas and some trendy hittas. A$AP Rocky – rapper, actor, fashion icon – known for many things, but more so than ever for being the star at just about every fashion show. He’s unlike any other when it comes to his style, consisting of a very high-fashion, skater-boy, grunge look at times, he’s iconic and edgy. While many rappers are known to absorb and execute the 90’s, he exceeded those expectations and proceeded to the road less traveled. Using popular brands like Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana and many others, he is known to mix it up with some of the brands you may remember from childhood like Starter. There’s no doubt A$AP Rocky has the whole fashion thing on lock. It’s more than just the cool shoes and name brand t-shirts, though, that make him the icon that he is. The confidence and swag is what fulfills his image. Manhappenin’ decided to channel the rapper’s fashion vibes for this latest shoot because. who wouldn’t? Don’t worry about not having Prada, Escada or Balenciaga in your closet, (we sure don’t) but you can still channel the energy and style needed to execute a “Rockin’, rollin’, swaggin’ to the max,” kind of look like our beloved A$AP.
