iHipHop Admin The war on hip-hop has mostly stayed on the content of rappers’ lyrics, but now it’s moving towards how hip-hop heads are wearing their clothes. According to a CNN news story a small
"Are they employed? Do they have a high school diploma? It’s a wonderful way to redirect at that point," Trenton Councilwoman Annette Lartigue, who is drafting a law to outlaw saggy pants, told CNN. "The message is clear: We don’t want to see your backside."
The style of sagging pants was believed to start in prison. Back in the day prisoners were not given belts to hold their prison-issued pants up for fear of suicide or use as a weapon. The style came out the prisons and into the hip-hop world in the 80’s and has been here ever since. Hopefully they’ll fine those plumbers that expose their backsides too.
No No No you dumb
lil fucks.
Sagging pants did not come from prison. It came from the hood. I rock my shit the way I rock my shit and I be damned if somebodies mom gone tell me how to.
If you don’t want to see it then don’t fucking look. it’s simple.
White suburban skateboard kids do it. Black kids in the hood do it.
Lil wanna be ‘s do it. It’s nothing.
There THEY go worried about the wrong shit again.
And they ain’t going to stop until we turn it into Watts again and riot. Maybe then they’ll listen huh?
fuck the world 666 pod mvp g
fuck tha law.. amma keep my pants sag alll day till i D.I.E.
Sag means fag in prison
Here we go again, huhhh. Ok, the shit looks bad, it aint sexy, or cute. U think u representing tha so called hood? No no no, u represent ignorance!!!! And for ur info mississippian, this bullshit did start in prison? Do ur research damnmit!!!! They had them turned out punks there walking around the cell and whatnot with their assess hanging out!!!!! As a REPRESENTATION of being some mans bitch in there. Now, it gives a true meaning to who represents what? It is what it is. The TRUTH. So next time u decide to sag ur pants, thinking u look good or hard, nooooo!!!! U look like the prison mans BITCH!!!!
Dumb ASSESS!!!! Leave that shit to the females to have they asses hanging out, not u dumb fools!!! Besides…. if u guys are ballin sooo hard, then u can afford a belt, right? Hmmmm.
Sagging is just nasty!!! No class to it at all. Look at the fashion today. No label is promoting sagging. If anything, today jeans are designed to show the masculine image of a mans sexy legs. go to Macy’s or Nordstroms and look at the jeans.
Mississippian, come on now, it’s understood that Mississippi is among the lowest when it comes to education, but you take the cake!!! -Shatez00 wifey
QWhat! thats some bullshit. Fuck the law, fuck the world. I sag my pants so its easier for the world to kiss my ass. For my homies, do wut yall do.
Get the Fuck out of here. Sagging did not start in fucking prison. Yall do some research and stop beleiving all the bullshit that the news tell you.
Sagging is from the poor culture. It came from when parent passed clothes down from one sibbling to the next,because they could not afford new clothes. Most of the time the clothes would be to big. Which what leads to sagging.
Dont get me wrong it is in some cases were people do need to pull up they damn pants.
Like when a dude is showing there whole ass. That not cool. but a lil sag is aight. Just showing the top of the boxers is aight. LOL.
My man above got it right^^^^^^^^^
It doesn’t fuckin matter where saggin came from. The fact of the matter is, everything in hood or Hip Hop culture is being emulated by suburban youth. The moment some of these high society white kids and shit come home with a “hood” type look. There is going to be an uproar about the shit because they don’t want their kids to be associated or appearing like they are involved in anything on the other side of the tracks. I look at the Jena 6 situation and it just seems like anything nowadays can get you locked up, from a schoolyard fight to the way you wear your clothes. The next thing you know it’ll be slang or something even more petty to get us locked up for and wasting tax dollars on bullshit jail time.
Niggas please wake up before its to late!!!!
Ok, for the purse snatchers and stick up men that think this shit is some kind of statement??? Ummm ur an idiot!!!! Fresh2death, u sound halfway decent, please don’t believe the hype!!! It looks awful!!! But arguing is useless with the rest of these bums, cuz it seems that the average so called thug and gangbangers are comfortable in their own ignorance!!!! oh, for doket hope u read this….. THINK OUTSIDE THE BUN!!!!!!
fuck that shit. These pigs always tryin some new law i aint listenin to that bullshit. Outlaw fuck that. all these laws just keep a nigga in a trap cuz other dumb mufuckas follow it and group up when the next man dont then it makes it seem like that person doin somethin wrong
iight there is a big debate as to wether or not to sag your pants…I say fuckin leave us alone n let us wear our pants the way we want… if we look stupid then let us look stupid… we feel comfortable wearin it like that… it not u its us so leave it alone… JAE
it doesnt matter where it came from but the fact that the law is again trying to limit out rights now its how to dress and next it will be how to talk….^6^ GD till the world blow
back when i was n school,we would clown niggaz 4 floodin. so to make pants look longer u pull them down at tha waist. u get use to it and wearin ya pant on ya waist got uncomfortable.
saggin is comfortable, its alot of shit i dat i dont like. stankin ass people on the elevator, people wit holes all ova they clothes, people who dress they kids in diapers….just diapers.shortys be 2 and 3 playing outside in nothing but a diaper. they just need to get they jails full. u kno niggaz aint sellin dope like we use to.
the point here ain’t who thinks sagging is in fashion or out. i personally don’t sag.but the point is what they’re doing about it. it’s a freedom of expression issue. if we all had the same opinions on fashion, then we’d all wear the same thing. but we don’t. it’s not about you or me. it’s bigger than that. the lady said it herself in the interview, if you’re sagging then you must not be in school. that’s her indirect way of calling us stupid. and by us i mean the hip hop culture. it doesn’t just stop at sagging. sooner or later it’s going to hit something about every single one of us, and our so called freedom of speech and expression.so go ahead and let them confuse us into arguing with each other(like on this comment blog) while they steady stomp us back into that hole in the ground.
fucc every6ody if a nigga want to wear his pants how he wants to who the fucc is ant60dy to tell him he cant do it
This is all another ploy to take away rights and lock up niggas at the same time. How is locking up and fining anyone going to help them grow up or get a job. Put some legislation in place really aimed at fixing the problem instead of trying to flex government muscle. Wake up ya’ll. It’s saggy pants today. Tomorrow it will be ugly people, fat people, or women who expose too much skin.
