Jay-Z: Stylistic Winner

Whether rocking a plain white tee, or draped in a Gucci black stretch wool 2-button suit, rapper Jay-Z embodies the essence of hip-hop fashion. From a humbling beginning as a child in the Housing Projects of Bed-Stuy to a multiple Grammy award winner, Shawn Carter is undoubtfully a (if not the) key figure in urban music and fashion.

Jigga Man's style IS hip-hop casual-chic. Mr. Carter introduced hip-hop fashion to mainstream America. The moment Jay walked into a business meeting casually dressed in Rocawear jeans and a plain tee, a new meaning to proper office attire emerged.

You don't have to have Jay-Z's bank account to mimic his effortless sense of style. With his Rocawear fashion line, Jay-Z offers hiphoppers a piece of his envious swag.

For these reasons and many more, Jay is this weeks' stylistic winner.
