Dating back to Kangol hats, Adidas shell toes, and layers of gold chains, rappers’ personal style choices have, for better or worse, spurred fashion trends across the globe. But recently, there are some decisions so bold that it would be a moral failure for us regular folk to even attempt to recreate them.
