Rap's fascination with rocking lounge wear.

Raekwon - No one stays flyer than the Chef because only Raekwon can pull off wearing boxers, a blue bathrobe and Jordans. That's C.R.E.A.M. right there.(Photo: Raekwon via Instagram)
Eazy-E - The best MC to ever rock a bathrobe has to be Eazy-E, hands down. The N.W.A. boss must have loved the gifts he received backstage at The Arsenio Hall Show back in the day because the Ruthless MC came out and conducted his interview in the bathrobe given to the guests. E was so comfortable, he even barefoot. Now that's gangsta.(Photo: Arsenio Hall via CBS)
