How 'bout the designer that made you, then?
Woah, I got the newest drop, ayy
La ropa de Dios, si, si, me gusta
Get lost in the hues that are in my coat
Been a boss from the view from the Almight'
Done feelin' alright wearin' Off-White
'Cause it cost Christ, covered all life
Ain't no better fall line

High fashion, woo
Fashion, ahh
Where'd it go wrong? Where'd it go? I don't know
High fashion, ahh
But I like it, now I fight back, that's a right kick


Fashion Joe

Fashion Joe Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Released on August 21, 2018, "Fashion Joe" by KB featuring GAWVI presents a thought-provoking blend of contemporary hip-hop sound and profound lyrical themes. The song immediately establishes a connection to the biblical narrative of Joseph, framing its core message around the story of betrayal, identity, and divine favor. References to a coat given by a father, family animosity, and suffering leading to a form of covering or redemption echo the Genesis account of Joseph and his coat of many colors, highlighting the song's foundation in this ancient story.

GAWVI's presence on the track is significant, delivering the recurring chorus that juxtaposes the concept of "Fashion" and "High fashion" with questions about where things went wrong and a declaration of fighting back. This creates a dynamic tension within the song, suggesting a struggle or conflict related to status, appearance, or perhaps navigating worldly values. The idea of liking something yet needing to fight back implies a complex relationship with the superficial aspects of life that fashion often represents, pointing towards a deeper battle for identity or purpose.

KB's verse delves further into this complexity by initially listing high-end designer items and symbols of wealth, painting a picture of material success. However, this display serves as a setup for a powerful pivot. The lyrics challenge the notion that designer brands define coolness or worth, redirecting the focus to "the designer that made you," clearly referencing God as the ultimate creator and source of value. The verse culminates in a powerful declaration that feeling alright is not found in wearing luxury brands like Off-White, but in recognizing the sacrifice of Christ, which provided complete covering and salvation. This ultimate act is presented as the true "fall line," superior to any earthly fashion trend or status symbol.

Ultimately, "Fashion Joe" utilizes the familiar biblical story of Joseph and the modern-day fascination with high fashion and material wealth to deliver an inspirational message. It contrasts the temporary and often misleading nature of worldly status symbols with the lasting, redemptive covering provided through faith. The song encourages listeners to find their true identity and worth not in what they wear or possess, but in their relationship with the divine "Designer," emphasizing that the greatest cost was paid by Christ to cover all of life, offering a superior form of "fashion" or spiritual covering that transcends earthly trends and trials.
