Internationally famed Hip-Hop music artist M.I.A. who's released hits Paper Planes and Bucky Done Gun, has made her steps into the Retro Streetwear scence. The uniquely styled artist who's voice was sampled for rapper T.I.'s new single "Swagger Like Us" featuring Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne, decided it was time to release her fashion ideas to the world. M.I.A., who's father was a political activist, has put the first designs from her Okley Run clothing line on her Miauk.com website.
"M.I.A.'s style is uniquely sexy and fresh. With the Retro Kidz of New York, Nas, and Kanye West i think she should team up with to promote this very original brand. Awareness is a must for such an exclusive line because the prices require great demand from the streetwear and retro fashion scene," says Sojones.com Hip-Hop clothing site founder Rodrick Rainey on M.I.A's Okley Run clothing line.
Culturally aware, it's obvious in everything M.I.A. does their is worldly influence in her crafts. The Okley Run clothing line is no different from her tribal, electronica, hip-hop culture mixed music. The collection's pants, hoodies, and jackets are filled with color combinations that have cultural value.
