Abstract
This project reviewed the relevant literature on the link between Hip-Hip and fashion, determined the frequency of brands being mentioned in the discographies of the artists chosen, and explained why it is important to know which brands are being mentioned by the artists chosen. The media we consume all means something, and this project determined what the Hip-hop music medium tells us about the fashion industry, and what brands artists choose to wear and endorse.
