    Yeah, fads are really annoying. It gets to the point where you don't even want to wear things that you occasionally wear because the current style is to wear that piece of clothing every day with everything.

    Yeah fads are against the very essence of my individualistic soul that burns brightly in contrast with the dimly lit drones around me...*drinks pabst blue ribbon while listening to Kid A*

    Yeah I can say for certainty that black guys didn't get this Johnny Depp...but Kanye has been doing this thing along with guys like Pharell...Lupe Fiasco does it too but I think he has always wore glasses.

    Actually that thing has been around a while now in hip-hop. Way before 09, just everyone has started doing it.

    Don't worry though, now since everyone is doing it that means it's about to die out.

    Or neck tattoos,
    Or cornrows,
    Or skinny jeans,
    Or piercings anywhere except the ear,
    Or...

    Again yes its "FAD much", to answer the question. :) The people doing it are POSERS cuz we've already seen them BEFORE not doing anything close. So yeah who are they fooling. They don't have the Arian Foster type "cred" to pull it off.

    I'm saying that its not only just a bad show from them, really it reflects greater society too.

    You got these beer commercials saying "MAN UP" -and its a girl calling out a guy out. When she herself would walk out of there wearing thick scarves and furry Ugg boots in a sunny beach area. With leggings. How come THAT dumb stuff doesnt get a "call out"?

    You clearly don't have enough swag if you don't see the correlation. Unless you're just trying to be in the minority just to start your own movement, in which case.....where can I subscribe to your newsletter??
