Smif-N-Wessun<\/strong>‘s groundbreaking album, Dah Shinin<\/em>, celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. Partners in rhyme Tek & Steele<\/strong> chose to honour the project\u2019s historic timeline by aligning with UCL <\/strong>to create their commemorative Bucktown 360<\/strong> collection. The dynamic duo\u2019s Bucktown 360<\/strong> capsule is considered to be the very first collaborative artificial intelligence-designed fashion collection, bringing the worlds of fashion, hip-hop and artificial intelligence together on the same stage.<\/p>\n

To create the designs, Smif-N-Wessun<\/strong> worked with UCL <\/strong>artificial intelligence platform to create graphics central to who they are as hip-hop pioneers, paying homage not only to their hometown of Brooklyn but to their groundbreaking album. To activate the artificial intelligence hub, images of Tek & Steele<\/strong> were fed into the mainframe, along with various snapshots of Brooklyn. As an added layer of creative depth, their song Bucktown 360 <\/em>was also inputted into the hub, which was then used to elevate the designs. As a result, the collection perfectly captures who Smiff-N-Wessun<\/strong> are as cultural vanguards, and respectfully pays reverence to the group\u2019s milestone album.<\/p>\n

Bucktown 360<\/strong> collection is now available at urbancoolx.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
