Anuel's Sunglasses: Discover the Urban Style of Anuel Rapper

Sunglasses are a classic calling card for avant-garde styles. And what could be more avant-garde than the trap exponents of urban music. Anuel AA is undoubtedly an icon of the genre and the hip hop movement. This visionary artist went a step further by daring to launch his own line of sunglasses.

Nothing more distinctive than having your own fashion line. One accessory that undoubtedly comes to mind when thinking about gangsta style is sunglasses, specifically Anuel's sunglasses. Find out all about this scoop that is shaking up the fashion world.

Sunglasses in the music industry

For some reason, this accessory to protect the vision became essential among music artists, especially the exponents and followers of the urban style since its beginnings in the 70s. Elton John, Alejandro Sanz and Rihanna are some examples of high-class singers who immortalized their name by patenting their own line of sunglasses.

Anuel, baptized by Rolling Stone magazine as the "son of the street" joins this exclusive list adding a new anecdote to his particular life story by inspiring this collection of Hawkers sunglasses.

Anuel, an icon of style and irreverence "Real to death".

The Puerto Rican Emmanuel Gazmey Santiago, known to all as Anuel AA is undoubtedly one of the top representatives of trap and reggaeton today. Originally from Carolina in Puerto Rico, he had from a very young age a life influenced by two things: music and the "street".

His father was a salsa singer and music producer, which awakened his artistic vein at a very young age, beginning to compose and record at the age of 14 with a promising projection. However, life in the neighborhood is hard and often marked by violence. Anuel was no exception and in 2016 he was imprisoned for illegal carrying of firearms spending a difficult stay behind bars until 2018.

The resilience demonstrated by Gazmey was noticeable, since instead of collapsing while he was deprived of liberty he managed to publish his first songs. In this way he became known in the music industry.

Already in 2018, when he receives freedom, he had become a hip hop phenomenon, returning to the public scene in a legendary way with songs like "Delinquent". Thus conveying a clear message of rebirth by telling those who judged him, " they say I'm a delinquent, that's why people are what they talk, for me let them talk that they comment because I owe no one anything."

Anuel attends big parties and events regularly, and in his attire there are two things that are never missing: gold clothing and sunglasses. Coupling the tough neighborhood attitude with luxurious attire to create a unique style archetype.

Luxury, party, trap and sunglasses

Sunglasses were conceived as an accessory to be used outdoors, however, this has changed with the passing of time. On the one hand, photochromic glasses allow the lenses to adapt to different levels of light exposure; on the other hand, pop culture has normalized their use at parties and nightclubs.

The art industry in general is a historical ally of sunglasses, and the aura of mystery and glamour they add to your outfit is unquestionable. In short, sunglasses are the most versatile accessory of the moment.

The ones Anuel wears frequently are from designers like Gucci, Moschino, Ray Ban, among other models that we would have to extend too much to name. And how not, if "La Doble A" is an avowed fan of sunglasses. So much so, that he did not settle for just one model, but a complete collection together with the prestigious brand Hawkers.

This exclusive selection includes 3 different models : Histidine Black, Inwood Red Black and the limited edition Vudoo Ruby.

The new Anuel Sunglasses in collaboration with Hawkers

Sunglasses, more than just an accessory, are a tribute to individuality and an evocation of good taste. If anyone has good taste is Anuel, and in 2022 he proved it by launching this collection designed by him in conjunction with Hawkers. We tell you right now the characteristics of each model.

Histidine Black

These sunglasses are the most influenced by Anuel in their design. An angled frame whose thickness varies from the inside out in increasing direction gives it that street style typical of the artist. The lenses are dark gray to create a delicate contrast with the glossy black frame.This model evokes the ghetto for the aggressiveness conveyed by its curves and angles.

Inwood Red Black

A sunglasses model that denotes the irreverence of the gangster style characterized by adding distinctive nuances to old things. The square frames are easy to associate with the legendary and timeless classic Ray-Ban models, with the difference that they are painted with a tribal red design in contrast with the matte black background.

Their dark lenses add an aura of mystery that makes the wearer look more interesting. The colors suggested by Anuel have the essence of the singer that will not allow you to go unnoticed in outdoor or indoor spaces.

3.Vudoo Ruby

These sunglasses are very special because only 1000 units are created per season and because the Puerto Rican rapper dedicated to them the phrase: "Not suitable for outsiders".

The Vudoo Ruby consists of an ultra-thin hexagonal frame design with red mirrored lenses and temples finished with a delicate layer of red paint. This model is loaded with nostalgia as it takes us back to the golden years of the 90s, but with a fresh and modern touch suggested by Anuel.

Aperol Neon Dark

If there's one pair of glasses that's perfect to wear to the disco, it's the Aperol Neon Dark. Their phosphorescent green hexagonal frame will make your face shine brighter than the ball of lights. More than one top DJ has been spotted wearing these sunglasses while mixing on the console and getting everyone dancing to "Bebecita" or "China".

Urban style sunglasses to look like a superstar.

At Bassol Optics we know very well that the combination between street style and luxurious casual is in fashion and will be for a long time. Wear a high-impact outfit with any of these 4 sunglasses popular among urban music artists.

Balenciaga BB0096S

Balenciaga is a brand often named in trap and reggaeton songs for the luxury they represent. This is one of its most iconic models used in several music videos of the urban genre to decorate the faces of the stars and their companions.

The white color is reminiscent of the empty canvas that represents the human being, with the brand's logo arranged in a very visible way so that everyone knows that you are wearing a designer accessory and not a trinket. Just like the Aperol Neon Dark, the Balenciaga BB0096S are the ideal model to wear in nightclubs because of their light color and golden sparkles.

Moschino by Karol G

And yes, women also look spectacular with the urban style. If there is a female exponent within the genre is "La Bichota". Karol G is an ambassador of the brand and the Moschino MOS128/S are one of the models she wears most often.

Their fancy essence stands out for the color and heart shape of the frames, perfect to combine with jewelry in chains and earrings along with aesthetic outfits in bright colors. Karol G's good taste is so good that she even conquered Anuel's heart for a few years with a romance whose end attracted and still attracts the attention of all the showbiz media.

3.Gucci GG1221S

Gucci is the quintessential brand for lovers of opulence and eccentricity. A closet is not really luxurious if it does not include Gucci garments or accessories inside. In the case of these GG1221S, they have a complete Gangster style: classic and with character. If you pair them with a confident and unflappable attitude, everyone will step aside to make way for you as you walk.
