Ballin!

The term 'Ballin' has forever been immortalized by Jim Jones, the MOB Dipset Capo whos 'We Fly high' captivated the hood. Luckily the term is defined completely by its user. Example - You are driving a '93 corsica and your friends got a 2004 Honda Civic you could be hatin like 'oh that dudes ballin son thats why he got that car'.





Now with Jim Jones ever increasing popularity in hip hop his unique style has been brought to the masses.

Such as the Skull and Crossbones design to my left. Which is now a staple of Hip Hop Jewelry [photo courtesy of http://www.icedout.info] They have incorporated such styles into belt buckles, jean chains, pendants, shoe tags and everything. Goin straight bananas on this design and variations of it! But hey Jimmy stay fly son and you gots to too or the girls are gonna just pass you by.

You should also be on the look out for Juelz Santanas clothing line RoyElz and Jim Jones clothing line which are both set to blast off later this year [2008].

Now only if these iced out watches / jewelry sites would get me an advance on some clothes from these guys maybe I'd have some justification for blogging about this industry [hint hint guys....hook it up!]

See you guys later this week as I figure out other trends particular hip hop artists inspired, besides the logo jewelry that is obvious to all.
