On the Come Up...

Sooo one boring day I was scrolling through my bbm list and stumbled upon my homeboy Mannie's DP. It was of an old homeless dude wearing a cool shirt that I liked. I asked him about the shirt and he told me about Guilty Victims. Guilty Victims is a crew consisting of 4 dudes (Mannie, Emmanuel a.k.a 2 Bills, Adrian a.k.a Custom the Genius, and Noel a.k.a Nephew). So what's their mission or purpose right? They want to network and push out a brand that is influenced buy fashion, hip hop, music, and street art sub-culture with an intent to be an upcoming huge underground movement; and they do it all for the love of fashion, music, and art. Pretty dope huh?

They've recently done a photoshoot with 2 of their most popular prints. I asked Mannie about it and he had this to say:

"Dead Broke Clothing X Guilty Victim showcases its 2010 summer collection that features Charles Hankins and the beautiful Rose Flor M Lopez. The lookbook features two graphic tees that represent the culture and roots of Africa."

Here are just a few shots from the shoot peeps!

Want one? They're 25 a pop. && in case you're wondering T.I.A stands for "This Is Africa".

I got mine...thanks for the shirt Mannie!
