Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Rappers' fascination with luxury brands is far from dying down: following this summer's surprise hit " Gucci Gucci" by Kreayshawn, it is Soulja Boy who is expressing his fashion love with an EP dedicated to Bernard Arnault.
The maker of "Crank that" and "Turn my Swag on" has turned his attention to Arnault's signature brand Louis Vuitton, offering lyrics such as: "It don't make no sense why they LV fake. But mine's real!"
But while Soulja Boy manages to mention and correctly pronounce the label more than 60 times (rivaling Jennifer Lopez's obsession with her Louboutins in her single of the same name), Arnault likely won't be pleased with being called Robert instead of Bernard several times as part of the new song.
"Louis Vuitton" is part of the rapper's Bernard Arnault EP available for download at http://goo.gl/ZlBAc. Listen to the song at http://youtu.be/ghkklsnSj98.
