    Let me get this straight... Fuct is upset because both he and Obey reproduced some of the most famous images in the world?

    That image of Mao was official propaganda and it was everywhere in China while he was alive...



    And the cuban poster of Angela Davis is almost as well known as the Che image in revolutionary circles...


    And as for Kiss... That's one of the most popular bands on the planet... Plus the treatments are quite different...


    As for the other stuff... the old giant logo is obviously an intentional referencing of the Fuct brand, the Erik B. and Rakim shirts don't even resemble each other, and neither do the belt buckles. You can't 'own' something in the public domain...

    Anyone remember someone named Andy Warhol...?
