Major Nelson's blog informs us the (still free) clothing comes in the female as well as the male variety, and we've listed below what your options are. We'll just be upfront and say it -- where's the oversized men's jacket with a myriad of patches for various sports teams? And the Kanye shades? Eh? EH?! Hit the break for all the details on the new clothing, gangstas.
[Thanks, Julian!]
Men:
- Denim Shorts
- Faded Jeans with Print
- Striped Visor Beanie
- Diamond Stud Earrings
- Square Stones Ring
- Oversized Jacket with Chains

That's hip-hop?
nocturnefoxx @ Apr 22nd 2009 12:37PM
It's like the "Rave" set from a few months ago that really looked like "80's 6th grader".
Gaymer @ Apr 22nd 2009 12:26PM
Where's the hip-hop?
Looks like homeless wear to me. : /

Oh lord...the influx of racism is about to increase ten fold on xbox live.

Where is a normal black hoody at?!?
Magicman @ Apr 22nd 2009 1:07PM
It's a hobo!

Hip-Hoppers wear jorts, diamond earrings and beanies? Not in this universe.
JusJ3ff @ Apr 22nd 2009 1:21PM
I've never liked hip-hop but i'm slightly offended.

More evidence that rare are so out of touch with society today. Next up will be the new "modern" lineup http://www.ucar.edu/communications/staffnotes/9812/hippies.gif

It's ok, all the avatars still pose like women. Seriously though it kind of bugs me
Alex @ Apr 22nd 2009 5:47PM
Yep, me too. Nobody takes an Agent 47 avatar seriously when he stands like that. I have been told that he looks like a dance choreographer.

Don't add me as a friend, because I'll just decline you.
megapenguinx @ Apr 22nd 2009 5:48PM
Wasn't planning on adding you(?)
Alex @ Apr 25th 2009 2:55PM
I was talking to the general readers, not just you.
Sorry if that seemed a bit blunt.

Can we please have some threadz for black people. Please?
Daniel Schrimshire @ Apr 22nd 2009 2:57PM
that's a boy? i swear it's a girl in boy-drag.
Scott @ Apr 22nd 2009 3:06PM
Nope, not "Hip-Hop", "Hip-ster" is more like it. That is all the clothes on the avatars, Hipster and emo, same goes for Playstation Home
warioman64 @ Apr 22nd 2009 3:27PM
There still aren't any decent shoes.
mgsrocks1 @ Apr 22nd 2009 4:20PM
That avatar looks like a homeless girl. What's that? It's not a girl? What do you mean it looks like Dustin and that's why I got confused? Hmm...
+++volume+++ @ Apr 22nd 2009 7:00PM
Don't diss Shutter Shades (aka Kanye shades), I have a pair.
pete @ Apr 23rd 2009 10:06AM

Don't diss posers, I am one.

xbox420king @ Apr 23rd 2009 4:24PM
These are hip hop clothes? Let me know when ill be able to get some NFL jerseys. ill pay some Microsoft points for that.
Redeye @ Apr 23rd 2009 11:36AM
More evidence to support my theory that 80% or more of the avatar clothing is designed by gender-confused artists. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course...
Tor @ Apr 23rd 2009 1:58PM
yeah it's hip hop...20 years later after the hip-hopster has moved out of their parents house and into the street.
MicroShaft: Now I want you to make a cardboard sign accessory so my character can become the penniless gaming bum he was meant to be.
The picture above is what you look like after your 20th RROD.
