He may still refer to himself as Young Hov, but the reality of the situation is: Shawn Carter's all grown up. And as Jay's gotten older, so too has his style of dress. If you couldn't tell by his rhymes, just take a look at him—we don't even think he wears Rocawear anymore, and he's obviously given all his du-rags to Memph Bleek.

In the visual for his latest single from Blueprint 3, "Empire State of Mind,", rap's Frank Sinatra trades in the baggy jeans for some clean wool trousers, and goes with a navy-inspired duffle coat instead of North Face snorkel. Real classy. Read on to watch the video and learn how to get the look. But hurry before he's on the next one...
