What Supreme's London Customers Know About Rap-A-Lot Records & Houston
“They rap a lot.”
The Supreme x Rap-A-Lot Records release is now upon us and as the routine goes, London gets an early drop of this week’s goods. HYPEBEAST was at the event to cover what went down but most importantly, see what most fans purchased from the highly-anticipated collaboration with the Houston hip-hop label. As always, the crop of customers who usually attend were quick to flaunt their purchases and we have a series of photos of them and their latest goods — these include the Rap-A-Lot tees, jackets, the Dr. Martens shoe lineup, main collection logo hoodies, as well as a flask. We also took the opportunity to fire some quick questions with people in the line to learn more about their Rap-A-Lot Records and Houston knowledge.
