I had wanted to go for years and never had the chance. No one in\u003cbr\u003emy entourage was interested in going with me, so, as an obsessive music head, I went alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFuture, DMX, Kehlani, Anderson .Paak and Kaytranada were playing, and I was not going to miss that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBack then, these artists were already the soundtrack to my days as I endlessly walked the streets of New York with my iPhone. Music on, camera ready. I wanted to pay tribute to the beauty and the chaos of the city I had moved to - midlife - a few years earlier. Street photography became a way to document places, people and my own sense of\u003cbr\u003ebelonging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a keen observer of my times, the infamous New York street style always caught my eye. What we choose to wear says a lot about who we are, what shaped us or what we\u003cbr\u003estand for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo when I got to Philly on that hot Saturday, fashion was what struck me right away.\u003cbr\u003eA parade of vintage tees. A moving archive of cultural references. Old rap tours, basketball legends, films from the ’90s. An entire generation wearing the symbols of another. Mine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was immediately captivated by what these t-shirts revealed about heritage, nostalgia and our collective memory. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat weekend was also the weekend Muhammad Ali passed away. Seeing so many young people wearing Ali t-shirts said something about how certain images and figures travel\u003cbr\u003etime. I didn’t photograph the rarest T-shirts or the most beautiful ones, but the ones that strongly and instinctively resonated with me. The ones that reflected my own sense of culture, my own heritage - and what, I think, deserves to remain.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Grand Jeu","offers":[{"title":"Tupac","offer_id":57842414682447,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Muhammad Ali","offer_id":57842414715215,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"KRS One","offer_id":57842414747983,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/8147\/files\/EgleedeBure-RootsAli_1.jpg?v=1780413984","url":"https:\/\/www.legrandj.eu\/products\/eglee-de-bure-roots-ali","provider":"Le Grand Jeu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
