Re: Excellent Post Ankesh! and a question :->
Hi Ankesh,
Thanks for Playing :-> THAT was what I heard as well. Specifically "Chuck D" from the old Hip Hop Group Public enemy had come to our city for some kind of symposium. And I heard he "Schooled" the attendees on what the real deal was with the baggy trouser. I believe it is fact. Here is what on Historian said. http://www.journalgazette.net/apps/p...template=apart "The style originated in prisons and picked up steam with the hip-hop scene, said Southern University History Department professor Raymond Lockett. "Prisoners are not allowed to have belts and shoe laces. Since they can't have belts, their pants are saggy and our young people are picking up that style. "A lot of people are making a lot of money with our youngsters with that style of dress," Lockett said." So I believe it did originate from prisons. Pretty Interesting. Here is a review of some of the thoughts from one of Chuck D's university presentations. He shares his thoughts on MORE than just baggy pants. http://www.expressnews.ualberta.ca/article.cfm?id=5350 |
