Dude looks like Goldface from the DC Comics

Back then, artists were "different". It was fresh and new. Nowadays, every other artist tries so hard to be "different", they ultimatelyend up looking like clowns. lol

 

[b smooth 202]

and @%*!+$ wanna talk about skinny jeans

 

[nyota de la star]

There are many elements of 80s fashion that I love. Most of which are being incorporated in today's fashion trends anyways. If you ask me 80s fashion ispretty timeless.
It always pops back up in one form or another

As for the "OGs" posted, they were just comfortable in there own skin that's all.

20 years from now you will be like ,I can't believe i rocked skinny jeans,fitteds with the brim not folded,and clothes with the tags still on them. Ohyeah, those huge overpriced and sized shades.

 

[ponson02]

I always thought this was more of a hip-hop thing where groups in the early 80's wore more costume like stuff. The Run-Dmc kind of changed it up or was athe beginning of the era where that started to change.

Besides, I see many questionable styles nowadays.

EXACTLY! It wasnt really until maybe Kurtis Blow somewhat and really until Run DMC came along and said forget all that mess and started wearingtheir "street" clothes during performances, pictures, album covers, etc...that other rappers followed suit and started doing the same.

Everytime I see this pic, dude on the far right always creeps me out. I dont know, theres just something that seems off about him, might be theclothes, his stance or his hairline
