Next time someone tells you that a fedora isn't cool, tell them that Lou Reed wore one when he was being cool with the kids of a new 80s generation by rapping!

Lou Reed wears a fedora in the video for "The Original Wrapper".

How does that make you feel, /mu/?

I think one of the things that made Lou Reed a musical star was his ability to keep current and go with all the latest trends.

Here he is being cool with kids of a new generation and trying his hand at rapping for the hip hop era!

Also, check out his snappy fedora, 25 years before they were everywhere, and you can see he was a following the trend before there was a trend to follow!

We need more musicians like Lou Reed, who was never afraid of being too cool.
