Whenever I see someone walking around in clothes with big, visible branding, I can’t help but think they paid a fortune to wear an advertisement.
This is especially true with luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Prada. People are either trying to impress others with fakes, or they’ve actually paid full price to become walking billboards.
Similar thing with iPhone cases that have a cutout for the Apple logo. That's just hilarious.
This is quite an individualist mindset; I was mainly talking about YT Trends-type of music - music likely listened to by millions, shaping the minds of millions.
