Hip-Hop Sneaker Songs
Hip-Hop is a genre that's well-known for setting cultural and fashion trends through lyrics. In fact, rapping about brand name products in popular hip-hop music has probably done more for the bottom line of some corporations than multi-million dollar marketing budgets. You can't talk about hip-hop fashion without talking about footwear. The sneaker is a status symbol and the anchor of identity in hip-hop culture. Everyone has a loyalty and a crispy pair of kicks is something to be cherished. From back in the day when Run-D.M.C.told us about their Adidas, up until today when hip-hop stars show off their favorite shoes through lyrics and style, the hip-hop fascination with the sneaker doesn't show signs of slowing down anytime soon.
This playlist includes 20 hip-hop tracks that sing the praises of the sneaker. What's your favorite?
