hov breaks down the upcoming year for rocawear and shouts out cam'ron.
interview

[@ksanders249]

2002 was the dope year for baggy clothes 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@purpleplantain374]

Kareem Sanders_249 and then came Kanye

[@jaydot4956]

@@purpleplantain374 actually dipset (Jim Jones and Juelz) influenced the transition from baggy to fitted clothes. Kanye was on it first but everyone thought Kanye was just a nerd 😂. Dipset had the street credibility to actually make it cool.

[@mo2k638]

jay dot dipset starting wearing fitted clothes mad early like in 2006

[@UniVS427]

Mo 2k facts they was ahead of their time cuz in 06 most wasn’t wit the fitted wave yet. It wasn’t til like 08-09 when I started seeing people with fitted shit.

[@Desrost888]

jay dot ye when they came out with ed hardy and bb simons antics ect but at that time ye was just a hypebeast working with pharell nigo for their own streetwear clothing line

Nahh that’s Kanye then Kendrick then Drake then him

[@yeau2732]

I remember it being way more parts to this interview during the early KZbin days…I remember sway asking him about the rkelly situation and jay saying “it’s the gift and curse” referring to the album he was working on during this time

[@pedrogates3189]

Nah that was a different interview bro cuz at the time of this best of both worlds hadn’t dropped yet this was from February 2002 you heard jay say it’s Valentine’s Day n cam’s album just dropped in may ….the r Kelly situation happened exactly a week after the album dropped that’s why they couldn’t probably promote it

[@yeau2732]

@@pedrogates3189 nah it was definitely this interview. For some reason it’s only a couple of clips though. I’m not sure if the r Kelly tape came out yet at this point but best of both worlds definitely leaked a month early cuz they had to move the date up. Maybe that’s what sway asked him about…

Good to see jay once big’d cam up , I think cam and jay’s beef might’ve stemmed from the falling out he was having with dame and not having a actual problem with Cam’ron personally

[@sunsetsmoke29]

pedro gates agreed cause even tho dame made cam a president he also made beans one but cam just made it public. It was for anyone who had their own label under the roc

@@johnrod9449 I'm saying after come home with me dropped in 2002. Basically dame started getting heat from Jay of why cam'ron was making all the moves he was making.
