You know times are tough when a multi-platinum rapper can’t sell his own brand of clothing. HipHopDX is reporting that despite recent accolades in GQ magazine, large portion of Andre’s Benjamin Bixby line is now on clearance for 50% off on Barneys.com.

‘The problem is no one is buying the clothing line because of the high price point and no brand equity. As a result, the Benjamin Bixby clothing line has had to dramatically drop prices in order to move inventory and prevent retailers from shipping it all back to Mr. Benjamin.’
