Vince Staples, whose debut album Summertime '06 officially drops today, has previously given an excellent tour of his local neighborhood in Long Beach. Now, the rising rapper is hitting up some of the stores in his area and talking about his personal style during a shopping session with Highsnobiety.
The rapper's first stop is Fairfax's FourTwoFour. While combing through the selection, Staples explains that he loves to wear outerwear at all times. "I don't give a fuck if it's 80 degrees," he says. His personal style also dictates that he always has at least one piece of "dust" on. "Dusty in the sense that, very urban, very down to earth." Staples also supports local designers by shouting out Jerry Lorenzo's Fear of God. "You gotta support your own," he notes.
Make sure to watch the video above to listen to Staples drop knowledge on what prisoners in Sweden wear. In part two of the series, we'll see the Long Beach product go shopping at a fixture in the Los Angeles shopping scene, Union L.A.
