am i hearing this right...theres a FUBU COMPILATION comin out??
could somebody tell me what the point of that is??
shit isnt gonna sell...
why do they even have a fubu record label??
do they even have any artists signed to them??..
that nas/nate dogg song is kinda hot though...i guess its the first single..
-
fubu?fubu as in the company that charges $70 for a shirt?damn thats gonna be one expensive ass cd
-
fuck fubu, they're racist
-
the funny thing is..their racist...but yet like 65% of their sales come from the "white community"
who cares...fubu is wack
-
good point nawshis, and yea they are wack
-
i like fubu...i sport their clothing.....personal taste i guess.....
but i dont know that they are racist..i havent heard anything that they have said or read that hinted at that....they say something in a interview or something?
but..nothing wrong with starting a lable......they have a business.........they are expanding...
thats like asking..why is wu tang selling clothes.....
they know they is money to be made....look at Sean Combs.... may not like his music, or him....but his clothing line is some of the best out there....
Fubu is just doing the opposite......they have the clothing line, they are just giving opportunity to artist out there......if they are racist..they shouldnt be..since their label is distributed by a white own coporation...Universal.......
I remember tommy hilfiger i think said something racist on tv once.....but a grip of "urbanites" still buy his clothing...
-
Fubu= for us by us and US=black people, ll cool j started it, and For US means its clothing for black people yet some of my friends sport fubu all the time...o well i dont own anythnng by fubu though
-
yeah i guess it is kinda racist the ideas behind it....
i gots a fubu hat but i barley wear hats anyway cos i got fucking huge dreads now....
actually, i think they need to go...but i cant decide...
i might thart a post where people vote if i keep the dreads or not...lol
-
lol.....when summer comes..i cut all my hair off...completely bald....when luvv to rub my head....lol
but for us by us......can have its own meaning....
if u seen some of their ads...they have black,white,asian, etc...all in their ads.......so i think they are cool with all genres...
-
Yo did I just read rightly. LL as in In The House LL Cool J started the company FUBU or just started wearing FUBU's stuff. And cause it racist I ain't buying any of there shit now. Was gonna buy a few tops hear in Britain cause you were finding them in TK Max for like 20 pounds each (About $35 each), One of my dawgs bought 2 of them. But I fucking hate racists. Damn FUBU. They just lost a customer although I don't think it'll bother them.
-
nah it wont...they are sellin like crazy over here.....
-
Man FUBU is SOOOO old here in Toronto... people stoped wearing that shit like 2 years ago... we have went through about another 5 brand names just like it as well
-
FUBU is not racist. For Us By Us could mean anything like someone else said.
For the people
For the hip-hop community
For people of the urban community
I seriously doubt it is racist. Just a rumor. Just like rumors of Tommy Hilfiger was racist. That shit wasn't true. Just a bunch of jealous muthafuckas wanna bring people on top down.
As for them comin out with a Comp. whats wrong with that? That are a hip-hop clothing line so the next move is to come out with hip-hop records. Ain't no thang.
-
'Cause they spend so much dough on Ad's in the source & the vibe, they think fuck it may as kill two birds with one stone and release some wack ass album.
-
There clothing is straight wack. I wore it back in 97 but I won't wear that crap now. I am not going to buy an album with fubu on it.
-
Im white and i got FUBU shoes, they suck though. They fell apart the first day i got them. WHats the song with Nate Dogg and Nas?
