    I think Nigo had taken Bape as far as it could go by 2012 , plus the sheer amount of counterfeit pieces the subsequent costs of fighting multiple cases wore him down, and now he’s creative director Kenzo , human made plus a hand in helping pharell etc , He is truly a streetwear icon and to many are called icon , legend , these words are warranted for Nigo
    Personally I love bape , but not Aape

    • @THECASUALco
      @THECASUALco  Před 3 lety +1

      Had to stretch it with the nods to Human Made with the "LVMADE" pieces. And the embellishments may have had nods to Icecream as well but Human Made's imprint is clearly notable but you are technically correct. It's not a Human Made collab.

    Reggie, the bape hoodie Biggie wore apparently didn't belong to him, it was a homie of his. They only gave it to him because he wanted something to throw over his shoulders. Biggie never wore Bape.

    • @THECASUALco
      @THECASUALco  Před 3 lety +6

      The story goes: BIG had the jacket over his shoulders, was put in a magazine by Bape the company. BIG like the jacket so much he wanted one in his size. Reached out to NIGO to get a custom one for his size, it was being made to order but BIG passed before he was able to get a personal fit.

    I dont like bapesta's but the craftsmanship on them joints deserve to be highlighted, because at their prime the the bapsta's quality even as a bootleg, far better then Nikes Af1. What does this have to do with Nigo as a whole, basically i am saying i may not love his clothes on a style based standpoint, but i admire his quality especially when he is motivated to really make great product.

    Idk, Hip Hop was already pretty huge in Japan prior to Nigo

    • @THECASUALco
      @THECASUALco  Před 3 lety

      “Pretty huge” is a stretch. Even today hip hop is pretty much still a subculture in Japan. You most certainly hear it, no doubt, but there are acts and artist you can mention that many Japanese,who you think should know, don’t. Japan as far as western music is concerned has definitely been more into western pop and rock than anything.
      The obscure references to bands and individuals like the Sex Pistols and The Beatles are everywhere in Japanese fashion and culture. And Japanese music will ALWAYS be more popular in Japan. And outside of a few smaller acts, idol music and dance groups rule that scene. Think: AKB48, JSoul, Exile Tribe.
      NIGO wasn’t the ONLY individual to make hip hop bigger in Japan but keep in mind before Bape there wasn’t a Japanese fashion label that actually catered to that audience. So Bape effectively made Hip Hop even bigger in Japan growing a bit outside of its subculture roots. In fact after Bape an influx of Japanese rap groups followed and got signed to record labels. That’s certainly not coincidence.
