We shoppers, you bloggers. If money talks, you mumblers. You try it on, then take it off, Then post a pic on your tumblrs.

More quotes by Pusha T
That competition grew through high school and you step outside more and it grew through college. Then you had regional style speak volumes through college. As you get older, and begin to travel and see more, that was the progression of style for me.
Pusha T
I don't know if that comes in a number, I don't know if that comes in a plaque, I don't know what it is. If I can keep me and the crew around me happy, stable, and out of jail, then we good.
Pusha T
Fashion is just really standing up in the forefront and it's being even mentioned at the same level as the music. I sort of feel like that's where it gets a little sketchy.
Pusha T
My style is a mix and match of everything. Like I said, It's Play Cloths, it's Saint Laurent, and I know I sort of won when everything can be understated, it can be three different brands, and you can't really see what it is and then you just ask, Well damn that looks good, what is that?
Pusha T
The thing that I realize about fashion now, fashion and music, now versus back then is that you had to have fresh records and be fresh.
Pusha T
I feel like Hip Hop culture has always been about [fashion]...it started in the street so it has always been a thing of the streets to be first.
Pusha T
To me it's just the knock, man. It's the knock and the groove of the beat. When I start a song, it's the first thought. It's the first thought and the first cadence, because that's the most natural. You know what I'm saying? I feel like people can feel when something is natural.
Pusha T
Let's test the waters... Love makes a splash, and you too thick to skinny-dip.
Pusha T
For me, being a rap fan and the nostalgia of me being a kid, rappers and guys on the street told me everything to wear. That was it. I didn't necessarily read too many fashion books. Then it got competitive in junior high school. It was moreso about, You don't got these. Everybody could be fresh, but you don't got these.
Pusha T
I feel like people can feel when something is natural. I think they can tell.
Pusha T
I got a voodoo doll every time I pen a verse: Not only do they say they feel it, but they say it hurts.
Pusha T
This is my time, this is my hour, This is my pain, this is my name, this is my power. If it's my reign, then it's my shower, This pole position...I made a lane 'cause they blocked ours.
Pusha T
Some athletes are super fashionable and not good. It's like c'mon man focus on your craft, be who you're supposed to be and then go put on the clothes.
Pusha T
I can't say that music ever made me do anything.
Pusha T
I don't want people to see what I've been doing at Play Cloths for nine years and built from a streetwear independence standpoint through Japanese streetwear - I don't want that to be shifted into something else.
Pusha T
Hip-hop to me right now is really easy listening. It's very easy listening, like there's nothing abrasive about it. There's no album that I put in my car that makes me roll down the windows - all the windows - and ride past the club line three times before I get out the car.
Pusha T
Sonically, musicians always go above and beyond in our efforts to disrupt radio. It's always about being different. Our radio is never conventional anyway.
Pusha T
Women's style is so hard for me. I just know what I think looks good.
Pusha T
Pain is joy when it cries, it's my smile in disguise.
Pusha T
I try to make Play Cloths really representative of me and my designers they look at my evolution as an artist and in fashion and they [zero] in to different details. I come into the office some days and they're like, 'What are those? [I say,] [These] are Philip Lim...[I'll] have on Philip Lim sweats and they go and put their spin on it.
