Top Urban Clothing Brands
Mention the word ‘hip-hop’ and two things come to one’s mind – music and fashion. Hip-hop has transcended the music scene, inspiring several fashion styles like street wear and urban clothing. The fast evolution of urban clothing has given birth to a wide variety of styles. Urban clothing has become a common fashion style even among people you meet on the streets.
The fashion style has gone beyond big jerseys and baggy jeans. Different brands and designers like akademiks, sean john, and rocawear have sprouted like mushrooms to meet the growing demand for more choices when it comes to urban clothing. Below are some of the top urban clothing brands in the market.
- Rocawear – A clothing brand founded by the popular hip-hop artist Jay-Z and Damon Dash, an African-American label executive. Rocawear carries different lines like included children, juniors, socks and sandals, leather suede and fur outerwear, handbags and belts, lounge wear and big & tall, headwear, jewelry, and sunglasses. It is reported to receive $700 million annually.
- Sean John – This brand is again, founded by a hip-hop artist, Sean John Combs, also known as ‘Diddy’ in the music scene. Because of its revolutionary clothing line styles and trends, the sean john clothing line was nominated for the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Award for Menswear Designer of the Year in 2000 and another in 2004.
- Akademiks – This urban clothing brand is popular with the devotees of hip-hop music and fashion. It was founded by Donwan Harrell, who thinks that denim or jeans are the best pieces of clothing. Akademiks became popular in 2001 when the brand was featured on the song by rapper Fabolous.
- Apple Bottoms – Another clothing brand founded by an American rapper and entrepreneur. Nelly introduced the brand with the statement “a woman should not try to fit the clothes; the clothes should fit the woman”. Apple Bottoms specializes in providing a way for plus sized women to wear fashionable clothing lines.
- Baby Phat – Kimora Lee, a famous American model and author, founded this clothing line. It specializes in urban women’s clothing lines such as apparels, accessories for phones, jewels, and shoes.For more information visit our website at http://www.streetzwear.com

Why is hockey not taken so seriously in America?
I wasn’t born to like hockey, but when Gretzky came to Los Angeles, I initially followed the sport with great enthusiasm. Not only did hockey became so popular in Los Angeles, it became popular in other southern belt states such as Arizona, Texas and Florida. Hockey jerseys also became fashion trend among hip-hop artists and urban youth. Then the Kings made the Stanley Cup Finals only to lose to Montreal 4-1. Ever since, the Kings never regained their ability to win games and with Gretzky traded to St. Louis hockey once again gradually took a backseat behind all the other three professional sports. After all Los Angeles and New York are two of the most influential markets for sports and entertainment in the United States. Is it possible that had Gretzky won the cup for LA, the NHL would have gotten more ratings and respect? Why or why not?
Unbelievable. I was expecting Dallas to score on an empty netter.
No. I don’t think Gretzky bringing the cup to LA would have made a long term difference, regionally or nationally. The reason for this may be the lack of American born players or the fact that the winner of the Stanley Cup is not automatically considered to be World Champions. If you look at the top 3 sports leagues, NFL, NBA and MLB especially football and basketball, their rosters are almost exclusively dominated by American players with very few foreign born stars.The winner of the respective league is determined to be World Champions in the absence of competition. That is not the case in hockey. The typical NHL roster is dominated by Canadian and European born players with some Americans, eliminating the “Home Town Hero” aspect.
