Cadillac (search) and Rolls-Royce (search) are in — but Lexus is out. Jacob the Jeweler (search) is hot — but Burberry and Timberland are not.
A new study of brand mentions in songs shows what's cool among the hip-hop crowd — and how fast tastes change.
So far this year, 59 different brands have been mentioned 645 times in Billboard Top 20 tunes (mainly hip-hop), according to a survey by San Francisco-based marketing firm Agenda, Inc.

but Burberry and Timberland are not.
Great, now I can start wearing my timberlands' again.
Thank God Lexus is out, I'd feel like a moron driving a car that is favored by hip hop "artists".
My first car was an Acura Integra. I had no idea what the "import scene" was. That is, until every time I pulled up at a light I heard some engine revving.
Rap sucks...Give me a pickup anyday.
That brings me "no end" in relief.
I wonder what the net depreciation impact for RR and Caddies works out to?
And thats an understatement.
I've been wearing Burberry since before most of these idits were born. I didn't even know that I was "IN" for a while.
Well considering you can get a 'slade (escalade) in a Sean Combs (puff p whatever diddy daddy) version with stock dubs. GAG. I kid you not.
It's better than country music, that's for damn sure.
Many rappers have their own clothing and shoe lines.
my drummer has a 1984 dodge ram with a 8 banger police intercepter (and we have no idea how it got in there)

I call rap"the black man's revenge".
Yeah, but just you wait.

I just think some people would rather grind axes than taking the liberty to listen to the music. I disagree with the "gangsta" aspect of rap, but overall a lot of rap isn't any different than the shock-rock and death metal that's been in existence since the early 70s. And yes, I have and still listen to rock music just as much as rap.
Most consumers of rap music are white suburbanites anyway...
It DID interest me. I never thought I'd be in the same league as a British hooligan.
Who knew?
OMG! I have my hair tied up with a Burberry scrunchie.
I am sooooo last week!
(Wish I had one. A real classic.)
