Y’all acting like Opium invented this style. They done copied and took inspirations from rock culture then made it popular in hip hop. All they did was ride a wave then made it popular
true but that’s kinda the general process of music, but if we’re being real how many artist(that were both a blend of hip hop and rock) were around before opium as a wave
Who cares? As a metalhead whose entire friend group dressed "Opium" way before Carti, it's cool to see some many people dress like this. It's awesome. People are discovering the same music, fashion, art ect. as me. Be happy.

nah, real lore is that ian connor tweeted out, looking for videographers and Joy was the one picked out of a bunch of different entries from that tweet thread and been with ian and carti ever since. He was the main videographer for all Ian Connor revenge vid promo and been doing brand editorials ever since
Black absorbs all colors; if you look at a crow under UV light it is like a rainbow colored bird. Our eyes can't perceive all the colors in this spectrum. That is why you see an oil sheen on black bird feathers. Black is actually the true rainbow. Whereas white reflects all colors.
i think opium is the best modern rap record label carti allows them to shine in their own way and work within their own schedule doesn’t throw them under him like cactus jack.
I'm from Russia. It's crazy that you know about VIPERR. Many listeners there accuse them of biting Opium music and aesthetic, but anyway I believe that they have their own unique things in their music. They made this emo / gothic aesthetic so popular in our country, so that lots of young people and also some rappers started to dress this way. Thanks for mentioning our guys. I recommend to listen their music for every connoisseur of Opium music. They do it tuff and often use English. Video is fire
ion get why a lotta people be hating saying how its nun new ans just reused from obvious rock sub cultures- mainstream style (i think mostly centrally focused on goth-punk- no duh) but i think especially in art forms, a lotta things are reused and replenished and made in different ways. i think opium is obviously bringing that out, especially since the style is also incorporating hiphop-ish elements in the sense of style. this shi sty asf all im hoping is that this dont become no microtrend/fastfashion/brainrot term since i see a lotta potential in ts
i mean three 6 mafia were pretty much opium before opium from the dark aesthetic to the satanic and demonic imagery, wich influenced raider klan, who then influenced rocky and all of the soundcloud legends that later influenced carti + i hate how he uses this aesthetic but it doesn't bleed to his music at all
I clicked on this video wondering what opium is because people kept saying the I looked opium, and oh your opium and I was like wtf is that 😭😭 I just like the color black and I am really a bubbly person. Now I know what opium is and I kinda like it and I might keep the name.
i told this one guy who was wearing crazy old geobaskets that Carti put rick on the map for the younger generation he looked at me crazy he’s like but rocky been wearing it and i said and look at everyone wearing ramones because of carti now
love how the same people that used to relentlessly hate on emo kids did a total switch up and became what they used to make fun of. they literally look like matrix extras. humans are interesting and goofy creatures.
It’s funny cause these dudes (opium) when they first started getting traction specifically CARTI people hated on his look and his style and aesthetic then like 4-5 months later flipped and are obsessed by him
@@sashalove83 nope. I’m speaking from facts. I see what you are trying to do, you can go ahead and stop with the racist card ma’am. Just because I’m not black doesn’t mean and have to be quiet about specific things 👍🏼
@blksheepramirez What I'm trying to do is see how you can speak about what black people thought without being one? We aren't all the same or thibk the same,but yet you making generalized statements as if we are. How privileged of you. Have a good day✌🏾
@@sashalove83 privileged? I’m saying what many black people said out loud many years ago. I know you heard it as well, speak truth. You are probably think you deserve reparations and that America is racist as well. I am a minority, just like you. My parents came from another country, they taught me at young age to not be a victim. Seems like yours didn’t do the same job. Good day ma’am, or is that bad to say as well?
I apologize for mispronouncing some of the words
Nah i literally cant imagine how much effort and time you put in that video this shit deserve more appreciation

I think that Gab3 deserved more coverage in this. He’s so important for the creative direction and he goes under the radar. Great video nonetheless!
Yeah Gab3 a goat too 🐐
This was very helpful as a fashion designer I loved it ❤
this guy said “whole lotta red” is the best album of all time 💀💀💀💀💀
That’s the truth
If Carti cares so much about Family, all image aside why doesn't he claim his kid with Iggy!!
He does. He Puts his son in the rick
Opium aesthetic was really created by lone imo the whole world didn’t know until if looks could kill
i feel like that too but really before ILCK cause ken wasn’t even all black everything until lone
naw it was erry.
No.
@@GH-yt7eg yeah it was he was friends w virgil
@@GH-yt7eg also hes the stylist for opium 💀
my dad was dressing opium before opium. little bit of streetwear + punk & alt
I mean, carti likes punk music so I wouldn't be surprised if he liked goth music too
perfect video to have on in the background of winding down before bed ty❤ more vids like this pls

15:24 Rosé from BlackPink is so pretty. I don't blame Lone for having her as a pfp😂
they dont attempt to replicate, they feel like they are representing it
One of the best vids I’ve seen on this watched every second of it 🔥🔥
Kanye was the 1st pulling off black clothes aesthetic, and u didn't even give him credit for influencing carti
btw twxn doesnt use the stuff you mentioned, someone writes, sings, and just puts a filter over it
Wonder how much longer till everyone’s gotta go to rehab and finally come off the all that aura filled opium lol
Couple years
is the song at 31:21 released 😞
He played it in a club in Paris. However, the song ain’t drop yet. Probably the intro to LLF
I fw with your videos heavy … thank you so much ❤💯
@@derekking9836 thank you
Your pronunciation on some words had me dying laughing 😂
"Sushi and the Banshees" 😂😂
the opium aesthetic is basically 2000s visual kei
We know their aesthetic it's the music we want
Tbh Carti and Opium are like a successful version of Stewart and the Skids from Letterkenny.
I'm madly immersed in this vibe bro
Love the vids keep it up
