We are sure Jay Z was only trying to show his support for the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement taking place all over the country when he produced an exclusive t-shirt with "Occupy All Streets" printed on them. But his attempted support, and what many saw a him exploiting the movement to make money, backfired in his face and so Mr. Carter has decided to pull the t-shirts.
The $22 shirts have been yanked from Rocawear.com, the site for Jay-Z's clothing line, according to the New York Daily News. "Jay-Z, as talented as he is, has the political sensibility of a hood rat and is a scrotum," one of the protests organizers said before the shirts were removed from the site. "To attempt to profit off the first important social moment of 50 years with an overpriced piece of cotton is an insult to the fight for economic civil rights known as #occupywallstreet."[HP]
