Welcome to the T-Shirt Forums!

It will be hard to find legitmate transfers for celebrities, since that involves a lot of licensing and celebrity permission to sell them legally.

Pro World has a large selection of Hip Hop. Their stuff is all pretty generic but you may find some stuff there to at least get you started, without having to worry about copyrite.

true.

i think if Play de Record, some peeps at BMG and others like Kardinal, the Raptors etc... got involved just a little, more would happen in the t-shirt transfer hip hop biz.

Depends on the specific shirt. It could be screen printed by a screen printer or it could be a vinyl transfer or rhinestones or some type of heat transfer.

There are a few different ways to accomplish the same final look.

There is a merchandizing deal in the works now with kush music - live electronica & instrumental and other artists....I heard.

This will be part of a Hip-Hop, Jazz, Electronic, and Afro Transfers/Branded garments Label.
