R.A.P.E.D. was a concept that I came up for a magazine publication that I wrote for a magazine in Chicago, lllinois. When the word "Raped" is placed into the atmosphere it is automatically assumed with a negative connotation. R.A.P.E.D. is meant with a more intense definition. Have you ever heard one say, "I'm "killing" the game," when they talk about their contribution to fashion and style? To take that statement and turn it into a more intense and attention catching phrase, I would say I am "raping" the game. The people that joined me in this photo shoot have all R.A.P.E.D. the game as far as fashion is concerned. Their vulgar ambition, harsh statement, cruel intentions, and lunatic sense has turned fashion and style into an entirely new direction. I believe when one goes after something, they should take it for everything that it has. That alone is why we have R.A.P.E.D. style. We are individuals with Rare. Authentic. Powerful. Eccentric. Daring style.
