Supreme's latest music collaboration brings together the brand with dead prez, the revolutionary hip-hop duo whose politically charged output has influenced the genre for over two decades. M-1 and stic.man formed the group in early '90s Tallahassee before relocating to New York, where they were signed to Loud Records in 1996. Their 2000 debut Let's Get Free remains a landmark in conscious rap - an uncompromising examination of systemic racism, police violence, economic inequality, and corporate manipulation over hard-hitting production. It's the kind of album that still resonates today, which makes this collaboration feel like more than just another music drop.
The collection draws from artwork across both Let's Get Free and 2004's RBG: Revolutionary But Gangsta, spanning a solid range of pieces:
- Quilted Work Jacket
- Embroidered Hooded Sweatshirt
- Embroidered Sweatpant
- Two T-Shirts
- 5-Panel Hat
- Bandana
The collection drops December 5 in Supreme stores and online in the US and EU, with Japan following on December 7. Given dead prez's continued work in community empowerment and holistic living, this feels like a natural fit for Supreme's ongoing celebration of authentic counterculture voices.
