Caps with a direct peak - reflections on clothes of public rappers

The realities of life in our state dictate the manifestation of the fact that all processes and trends in our country are different from similar factors in other countries. Fashion in this aspect did not stand aside, we can confidently say that on the territory of our state this concept has become something extensible and indefinite. Of course, not every citizen of our country can afford to buy in expensive boutiques that offer designer clothes, but 98% of people who are constantly in public dress exclusively in the latest models of clothing produced by world famous brands. Of course, a public person understands that his appearance largely affects the achievement of success and the attitude of others as a whole. However, many citizens still can not understand this incontrovertible fact. Representatives of a very popular youth subculture, rappers, also belong to a cohort of such “misunderstood” ones. Of course, we will not convince every young man to buy branded T-shirts and wear exclusively caps with a direct visor, sold in designer clothing stores. A rapper’s cap should remain a rapper’s cap, you shouldn’t go to extremes, but you should understand that the lack of funds to buy expensive clothes does not mean that you do not need to create your own style. Every self-respecting person, and even more so an artist, should strive to create his own image. The one who has the means has the opportunity to attract a designer to this process, and the one who does not can dress pretty well using ready-made things.

It is probably foolish to give specific examples of good taste in clothing or examples of disrespect for one’s own appearance, and therefore for others. No one can say with 100% certainty, for example, that rapper caps with a straight visor, familiar to everyone, are bad, and caps with a straight visor, custom-made by an overseas designer, are good, but still worth some points note. We are talking about the need to create your own visual image on the example of the foundations on which the rapper subculture rests. Southern music, which came to us from the USA, as well as rap fashion, is now in fashion. If so, why deny the influence of Western culture on ours? This fact must be taken for granted and it needs to be reconciled. Many, by the way, did just that. Fashion should go the same way. No one can say that he saw with his own eyes a Negro rapper, dressed inappropriately. Why it happens? The fact is that in the United States the style of clothing is not a stereotype, but represents a long-established tradition that no one dares to violate.

Many people tend to think that if you walk in the street in rapper clothes, those around you who are not related to the rapper subculture will “point your finger” and laugh (as if they have nothing more to think about except in which direction the caps with direct visor on rappers). Partly this phenomenon takes place, but the rappers themselves, or rather their individual representatives, are to blame. After all, if every rapper dressed in accordance with the traditions, and walked like this in the streets, hardly anyone would have laughed and even paid attention to him.

The above thoughts are by no means a call for copying American rappers, they are also not aimed at offending any particular person or several people. Just think: hip-hop fashion includes several hundreds of different directions, and on the shelves of shops you can find anything and in a wide variety: t-shirts, sneakers, sneakers, caps with a straight peak and much more. Everyone has the right to choose how to dress for walks or performances. But do not forget that the sooner people who are not related to youth subcultures and do not share their views will understand that rappers have a single style, the faster these rappers will begin to be taken seriously as a group of young people who simply have their own view of things and perception of the world. Just for the sake of it is worth dressing with style.
