@@calebjohnson6727 Their are plenty of interviews of Dan explaining how his Gucci partnership help him expand and get bigger, so it's incorrect to assume he didn't need them for anything. He's a smart business man who doesn't let emotion cloud his logic.
Let’s keep it 100 Gucci knew there sales where going down once’s somebody caught that dapper Dan styles jacket .. they tried it but fail so they called him to work a deal smfh
He said that it was a message to people with colour that ok we can finally do this and now since 2018 Virgil has been the artistic director of LV. I'm glad that happened.
People of color? Black people, please stop using all these terms that minimizes blackness as a struggle, and includes other groups. Stop playing their games! Gucci is about that dollar, that’s it!!!
To me bootleg and knockoffs are people duplicating garments or items that already exist. Dapper Dan was not and does not duplicate garments that already exist. Instead, he creates 'original' garments that do not exist anywhere on earth, which is a HUGE difference.
my man dap don't y'all hate on him cause y'all don't know him like i know him and where he came from he took nothing amd made something and i mean nothing ha ha you see him you tube just meet him and you will see where i am coming from he is Harlem raised right on Lexington Ave and 130 street I'm proud of you my friend for 50 yrs
@@freefarmsetups THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I SAID... Hopefully he has a team that'll teach him to stay irrelevant. Idk why everyone is calling him a genius cause I'm watching 10's of videos they using him

Dapper Dan: "F U to this system. I'm gonna do this in a way that is representative of our culture". His explanation of his creation is pretty representative of Alchemy. He is a true Alchemist.
Blk ppl already knew they could "Do This" after Cross Colours...especially after FUBU, so Dan getting a b.s. Gucci deal wasn't the blk designer firestarter sheesh...OH and 1 more thing. FUBU is actually STILL alive and well...they own Coogi, and a few more known brands. How could they die off??
Actually, the method in which "Dapper Dan" enter the business he kept all his over head insular and marginal by not occupying over prices loft space in mid-town he payed O! for advertising it was all word of mouth so yeah...if I were a big luxury house I'd want dome of that juice to spill my way as well. The trick is for Mr. Dan not to leave his neck region vulnerable for the culture vultures to suck him dry..for GUCCI that shit aint all Love ....keep that cross up !!!! The fashion vampires are swarming............
leila, let's keep it simple. let's not start with a "revolution". let's just start with a "treadmill". or a staircase. u know how to walk up stairs right, leila??
What a Don. Dapper Dan manages to be seamlessly both inspirational and aspirational. Massive respect. 🙌
Gucci know where trends begin - ie: on the streets/ hip hop artists, this is another example of them using the culture to gain sales -
cherylline price that’s another reason why he should of said for get them smfh

Much love to Dapper Dan..... from South Africa ❤️🇿🇦🌍
Black American Culture is shaping the world once again. The cream always rises to the top. “No Cliche”
Dapper Dan those not make knock off he made knock ups
point taken
Originality is whatever and however you are feeling at the time. Its creativity from within
Let’s keep it 100 Gucci knew there sales where going down once’s somebody caught that dapper Dan styles jacket .. they tried it but fail so they called him to work a deal smfh
Caleb Johnson that’s what they do the unnoticed gone become noticed long as they benefit from it
Business never Personal
The announcer Sucks on how he introduce Mr. Dapper Dan. He has the nerves to slick talk.....Dapper Dan is a real fashion Icon!
He said that it was a message to people with colour that ok we can finally do this and now since 2018 Virgil has been the artistic director of LV.
I'm glad that happened.
Did I HEAR Dan said like the introduction I just got was "Bootleg"
Yes he said it!!!!
I know...yikes. That was inappropriate of him.
Yesss... My mouth dropped
People of color? Black people, please stop using all these terms that minimizes blackness as a struggle, and includes other groups. Stop playing their games!
Gucci is about that dollar, that’s it!!!
L🖤🙏🏿E Dapper Dan story his contribution to fashion & his projectory of black fashion
His outfit is insanely cool.
LOVE DAPPER DAN! AWESOME DESIGNER.

Dapper dan us a legend super talented guy
The GG shoes he has on are really nice.

No...he used an already exciting brand. Geniuses create their own.
Please read his book
The funny thing it's only gucci that's given him the props he deserve, but what about what's with others fashion brands LV, Fendi, etc.
@@freefarmsetups master slave designer. That's deep. Can you expand what that means in context if you don't mind.

Desde Argentina thank you for sharing

Dapp know he fresh.
Stay FLY❣️💜
Sounds like the Gucci copying was a publicity stunt to generate publicity to bring attention to the collaboration.
seems timely but so untimely
That's marketing... They using him for sales
StyxVxn also to pretend they’re not racist. Dapper Dan is a mega talent but Gucci is problematic.
@@makedab4614 love both of your comments cause I was shole thinking back when they targeted the “lips” sweater... and the stories behind the scene

HARDWORKCORP it all started with Dapper ... do ya research
that introduction was shady...
#guccigang
This guy is selling/monetizing our culture outside the culture! That’s why he stays in the Bronx
Crab in the barrel mentality you have there. Grow up!
Dap that dude
Gucci house nigga dapper dan
FG!!! , Dap can do it all without the euro presents.
