THE MAN VS. THE MONSTA

LIVE DREAMS.rich&rude

Over 15yrs in the game and still nobody can touch him. The common thought when reflecting on Swizz Beatz is when you create a lane- stay in it. Since day one Swizz has made sure to let audiences know he was in the area. To be the young Dj of Multi-platinum rap artist DMX some would have taken a back seat but the brilliant 17 yr old at the time saw opportunity knocking and answered the door to success. With an estimated net worth of $65 Million I would say he had the right idea by opening that door. Today luxury brands all across the world are knocking on the door of Swizz Beatz for a collaboration of a different kind. Swiss is currently the Global Director of reebok , vice President of Creative Design and Global Marketing for Lotus and designer for Audemars Piguet. Cheers!

Check out these amazing projects to date.

T-RAN; "SO DAMN GOOD"

=ITS A LIFESTYLE=

T-RAN

THE WONDERFUL EXPERIMENT

This new breed of soulful bay area artists that apparently have something to say. Of course the bay will always produce "the slaps" but in the meantime we are have noticed a huge increase of the indie label (back pack) hip-hop taking a front seat to all the corporate gimmicks that consistently flood the airways on traditional radio. The popularity of these underground hip-hop shows has given new life and opportunity for the young artist of today to speak their mind. Giving this freedom of expression has produced many great new artists... one to look out for would be our great friend T-Ran of Oakland ,Ca currently attending college at Howard University. His latest project The Wonderful Experiment features music production from 9TH Wonder.

And yes we all want one but doesn't everyone already has one. The Rich&Rude Lifestyle is about being a individual. How are you supposed to stand out in a room of white tees with just another white tee. Forget that! Wear red with stripes if you have to. To be Original is what creates your value. The Lewis Stewart Collection embodies our lifestyle to a -T-. You may notice a few similarities to other popular bags on the market reflecting the four years he spent at Louis vuitton as a pattern cutter. After years of hard work and dedication in 2009 Louis decided to pursue his own dreams by leaving the company to launch his very own Louis Stewart Collection based in Los Angeles, Ca. The collection features Backpacks, Handbags and carry on Duffle bags all of which are made custom to specifically represent the customers personality. From color to texture this company is doing some amazing things.

As a independent company you have to give respect when it is due, these guys are working hard popping up all over the country placing bags with some the hottest celebs around see for yourself. Enjoy.
