Virgil Abloh would’ve turned 46 years old today 🤧🎉 Rest In Peace 🕊️ Virgil Abloh was connected to hip-hop culture, and his friendships with rappers helped shape his lasting influence in fashion, music, and art. He had a particularly close creative relationship with Kanye West, working with him on projects and traveling with him early in his career. Abloh also built friendships with artists such as Drake, A$AP Rocky, Travis Scott, and Kid Cudi, who often wore or supported his designs. These relationships were more than celebrity connections because Abloh frequently collaborated with musicians on clothing, album visuals, stage design, and creative direction. His ability to move naturally between fashion and hip-hop made him an important cultural figure, while his friendships showed how strongly music and style influenced each other during his career. #rapmusic #fashion #virgilabloh
