DJ Premier's Columbia Jackets Discovered + A Hip Hop Radio Mix From '94




If you recall Gangstarr promo photos from back in the day, Premier was heavy into the Columbia jackets back in ‘94. So was NYC where the variety of colorful designs worn by us adolescents lit up the streets. If you wore or remember the Columbia wave in the 90’s, drop a comment!

Side note: BRING BACK COLOR TO HIP HOP FASHION! I see a lot of the youth lately rocking all black here in NYC. It's about time we bring back the art of color to the culture.

If you’re interested in owning a piece of Hip Hop history, I’ve got a copy of the fleece and jacket worn by Preemo here at my eBay storefront (Large and XL sizes). Thanks in advance if you decide to purchase this gear (or anything else) through my link. eBay will compensate me to help support my continued work of promoting classic music here at the blog.

Enjoy this discovery of classic Hip Hop gear along with a classic mix by Preemo. He catches wreck on the turntables during his former radio show "The Thunderstorm" on the great NYC radio station WBLS FM. This set was just before the release of Jeru The Damaja's debut album.
