Why all these kids look like they belong in the 80s?

The 90’s is next. Expect to see Tommy Hilfiger and Nautica run wild again.
I found these kids to be average at best. But Its good to see the younger generation try to get hip hop out of its funk.

Fred Da God is nice by the way
And shouldn’t Diggy be in school? Check that, Lil B NEEDS to get his ass in class ASAP.
