SHAOLIN JAZZ - DREAM GIRLS for SHAOLIN JAZZ - T-shirts (Part 1)

…is a nod to the 90′s female Hip-Hop head, who is just as knowledgeable, confident, participatory, and literate in Hip-Hop culture as her male counterparts – essentially a male Hip-Hop head’s ‘Dream Girl.’

In Part 1 of the “DREAM GIRLS” Photo Shoot we highlight a day in the life of four friends (during the winter on the East), Hip-Hop enthusiasts, who are producing their next music project, rocking T-shirts, they customized, from the SHAOLIN JAZZ – T-shirt line.

Instead of the women playing the “back” the DREAM GIRLS are in the forefront: hardcore yet tempting, raw yet feminine, strong yet alluring, casual yet striking.

Welcome to Part 1 of the SHAOLIN JAZZ – DREAM GIRLS – Photo Shoot.  Shot by Chris Carr (Eat The Cake NYC), make-up by Diti (Diti Devi Makeup Artistry).  Featuring Alison Carney, Jayne Kennedi, Jheanelle Morgan, and Shanika Wright.
