Shyne is getting into the fashion game. He’s launching the Gangland clothing line, a partnership with U.A.O.P Ruprai, an emerging clothing designer who has also created custom pieces for Grammy Award-winning musician Pharrell Williams.
“The Gangland brand is something we want to build, from music to clothing,” Shyne says in a press release. “I’m from Brooklyn, and the streets have influenced a lot of trends in the fashion industry, and I want to mix street wear with high fashion.”
The Gangland clothing line features sweaters, shirts, hats and accessories and is available in select boutiques, and online at Shyne’s website. The clothing line has the same name as Shyne’s recent mixtape, a project that features Pusha T and World Kin Folk. It also has production by RZA, Young Lord, Odds and Ends, Omega, David DA Beats, Danja, Pheonix, Hebrew Hustle, The Olympicks, Kojak, J Kits, Arthur McArthur and Rich Skills.
The Brooklyn lyricist was expected to release a proper album under the Def Jam imprint and his Facebook page says that two records are slated to drop, Messiah and Gangland, but those projects both initially had 2010 release dates.
The former Bad Boy artist spent nearly a decade in prison after being convicted for his role in a 1999 nightclub shooting in New York.
the thing with shyne the thing with shyne the thing with shyne,

Not a big fan of Rappers releasing clothing lines but I thought you were suppose to do that while you were still relevant?
Who would rock something with the name “gangland” on it?? Come on now. Them clothes are going straight to Ross. Checkout thegrandreport, they have some good videos and stuff on there
Fashion is for gay and hipster people, for real.
And this train of thought is why some of you guys be looking dusty as hell coming out of the house. Fashion is for everybody yo.
shyne poh a real gangster
for years something has been missing from my wardrobe and i think this might be it. i always wanted to look like shyne
LOOOOOOOOOL
give up shyne its a wrap for you and your career
gangland? thought this stooge was promoting peace? Guess not.
Nice looking logo.
what happened to promoting peace??!?! Gangland?? lol.. Shyne = A JOKE! I’m not trying to hate but this guy is as lame as it gets… what does he know about fashion anyways? he’s been away for TEN years
Gang doesn’t necessarily mean violent group and just because you were in jail doesn’t mean you don’t know how to dress. Expand your horizons child.

“Gang” Is Just A Word. The Negative/Positive Around Those Letters Is Based On The Way A Person Decides To Promote It. Maybe Shyne Is About Being Positive….Time Will Tell.
LOLOL ol’ shyne tryna eat; he used to have a little bit of potential but man this is traaaaaaaaaaaaash
Everyone needs to chill a bit…Let the guy eat, T.I. has the whole hustle gang thing, nobody squawking about that.
his album and record company is called gangland, so it would only be right to promote his name like that??
Man i dunno about y’all but this dudes sweaters are pretty dope…
everyone constantly h8tn on the music, let po do something else then.
#Gangland
Shyne trying to eat? The guy has made money. He signed another record deal after getting out of jail. His pops runs Belize. He has money. Let’s forget it’s Shyne for a minute..and think about all the failed clothing lines from rappers…very few have done well. Now when you realize it’s Shyne, who want’s to buy his clothing? I don’t hate the guy, but I wouldn’t drop 2 cents on it.
