Rhuigi Villaseñor talks the Business of Rhude with students at University of Southern California

[@santiagoskywalker]

it's like sampling music, you take certain things and change it to your style, you add your own twist, it's all about adding your personality to things, everything comes full circle. same way kanye takes the melody from one song, adds the drums from another song, adds some spoken word from gil scott heron and boom a hit song, hes a genius. all using and drawing from past music that has been made already. rhuigi doing the same thing with rhude and charges what he feels he is worth. if you feel like your clothes are only worth h&m prices, then charge that but don't hate on him. People in LA got different money than a kid in Iowa.

I really respect that he did this

[@lisvanypimentel3330]

at 47:00 his question was essentially "how do you justify making huge lump sums while ripping off other companies logos?" Huge Question with great clean answer.

[@aayobruv]

Rhuigi's styling is good, but his clothing is not original, he charges designer prices for it, and people praise and give credit to him for it and he accepts it.

[@1kontrabida]

@@aayobruv I agree about his being not Original but i think he got this big break initially and got "noticed" from his "inspired" designs . Now we cant knock a guy for trail blazing his ideas and trying to make a mark in the fashion world just yet, he took that and used it to gain attention and at the same time showed that he's not just about that but have a vision to make and build a luxury brand with his talent and his team as they showed at the 2020/2021 Paris Fashion Show...ALL or any form of design came from something or someone which brought inspiration to someone to create something out off just like other luxury brands being inspired to produce such pieces but they don't tell or not made public...WHat i see in Rhude and RHuigi is, he's not sugar coating and doesn't deny where his inspiration came from and i think that's pretty genuine and encourages people to think outside the box and IMPROVE what existed and or be inspired and make new designs.

[@ishmaelsantos2275]

@@aayobruv Fashion as an art is not original, that's something people fail to understand. Art is not original, nothing is really original if you look at it in a thorough manner. It's references that we experience throughout that shape the vision/design process of one's brand. Every garment that exists has been curated by many designers, yet we only care to critique the ones that are "expensive".

Shame you didn’t ask about his dodgy business practices

[@lilb252]

Wdym

[@alex10991]

lil B multiple people have complained online that their goods were never shipped, him going as far as too delay responses/buy time so PayPal would then not intervene after x amount of days. Deliberate ripping of and copying of other designers and artists - although you could say a lot of designers “take influence”

[@lilb252]

Alex Leech damn really?? It’s not excuse what he did, but he did mention saying he had no money so head has to charge Kendrick double for a garment so maybe that’s why

[@alex10991]

lil B the margins luxury fashion make are very large, the consumer shouldn’t have to worry about dodgy stuff because of this. Look at his mr Porter video, stuff doesn’t add up he bought an AP watch when he moved from Philippines, he has a mclaren car. Dudes had every opportunity to save money by the time Kendrick asked for his stuff - it’s just more proof he’s not got any real buisness acumen.

[@destortions]

Alex Leech his shit is raw even if he rips off
