He's a little too Russian Club lookin for my tastes, but its time to grow up and out of the college sweatshirts/ironic t-shirts and skull caps. Can an artist grow?
Great photos, I had to laugh when seeing these at first. Is that a photoshop technique to get skin to look like chalk? That goatie thing is also priceless as fuck. It's cool that he's growing as an artist and stuff but he looks like a vampire/T1000 business man or something.
HOLY SCHITT! IS THAT SHADOW!!?!?!? He looks like some Berlin house producer. Yo dude...I'm not really baggin' on dudes clothes (kinda ) but the brown and white thing makes him look silly. I'm glad he ditched the bucket-hats and cargos, but yo...
I don't think so.
but yo I'm with Just Blaze in a suit (last month's URB). Homeboy lost mad weight as well.
sure, dude has grown up and i'm willing to let the b&w dracula pics slide, but this white suite ensemble? is he wearing eye makeup? c'mon dog, tone it down.

Shadow is almost on some so self-loathing of my past right now. but yo...so Shadow gets the "HYPHY"-token cover? Not an actual "hyphy" (damn Im starting to hate that fuckin' term) artiste.

i know, i'm not trying to hatt, but there's a step between his "i'm a super b-boy" style of old and this "david-byrne-elder-statesman-sophisticate-artiste" look that he skipped.

I think a lot of cats mo today is to get beyond "HIP HOP". At least front that way so they can transend there core audience. LL was one of the first cats I know of to publicly allude to this type of shit. No thread highjack.
Shadow has the makings of a Rick Rubin career if he plays his shit right. He going to isolate many cats along the way. He's lookin extra Matrix-like IMO.

If I remember correctly dude even penned the phrase "B-BOY SECRECY" in his BBE comp *CRINGE!*.

JEEBUS...Cut Chemist looks like Mr Rogers Jr...
I'm seeing a Van Winkle quality to that photo that I can't put my finger on.
that sure looks heavy.
And Armand van Helden now looks like Justin Timberlake instead of Ali G.
I was thinking "Vince Vaughn with a soul-patch".
???
Cut Chemist looks like this dude here
Peace

Do you want to offer us further thoughts on your favorite producers' personal style?
Is this picture from Urb Magazine?
it's bugged-out. I think even in one photo one of them dudes is rocking a helmet. I mean their isn't much to explain, dudes are in their own world.
Would you prefer them to wear some "linen slacks, clarks, and a matching cap to tie it all together"?
I also like how you're hatting on them when you haven't heard any of their music. (I know you woudn't like it though).

What does hearing their music have to do with hatting on their fashion?
You sound ass-hurt.
