The 90s coolness is hard to top! :)

Indeed it is. Can't be replicated.

Agreed, but Bruno Mars and Cardi B came pretty damn close to replicating it in the “Finesse” video!

Confused by thumb

The_Presitator t1_j5eyrt7 wrote

Yeah, me too. I was thinking OP might be one of the dudes in the back, but no, the comment under yours confirms he's claiming to be black kid.

Edit: checked his history and the vids posted seem to look similar to the kid in the pic. A friend was probably holding the picture.

I was probably holding a fist, lmao. I stay ready.

I think he means how your thumb holding the photo is white but the picture is of a young black kid.

I am also confused.

That's my sister's thumb and she's darker than me! Only the tops of our fingers are black!

Probably an old friend sent OP the snap of that photo, and OP decided to share. Thanks OP!

Man we had so much drip back in the 90’s and we didn’t even know it.

Champion and converse were cheap! Rude dawg shirts with the pit bulls and Rottweilers were bought at the swap meet.

Do you wish you were a little bit taller?

I hope so because we’re taking calls on the wish line, making your wacky wishes come true.

At first, I didn’t realize you had glasses on and thought you could do that trick where you make your eyes bug out of your head. I was like, this kid has seen some shit

ThaBlackBeacon OP t1_j5gxxbw wrote

Haha! I had seen some shit, like, have you ever seen a Digimon evolve into an angel!?

Jordan. Bernie Mac wants me to tell you to take your inhaler.

OP: Out of curiosity, what city/town was this? Even without many clues, the setup looks kinda familiar to me.

You could fit a second person in that shirt.

Did you ever grow into the clothes?

ThaBlackBeacon OP t1_j5eb8fs wrote

I think so. My mother would purchase so we could grow into the clothes. Every penny counted.

reggaemixedkid t1_j5ggo9r wrote

Same. Hell I stopped growing in 8th grade so I still have (like 2 articles of) clothes from then

If you added a long braided leather belt and a lil lowrider picture on your shirt, this could have been me too...lol

You and a friend could have shared that shirt, AT THE SAME TIME.

This photo makes me want to go spin some old school New Jack Swing jams. It’s the whole vibe, but those round sunglasses really make it.
