Still, it seems a curiously arbitrary trio of concerns--particularly the drug-war component, which scores scarcely a blip in any catalog of the public's disenchantments.

Despite the Armani imprimatur, though, the new Shaft looks like a catalog shopper. He may have dissed the drug dealer Peoples in his Egyptian cotton as a "cheap knockoff mutha-----" but Shaft's own styling is unlikely to inspire any new look, precisely because its baldheaded, black-polo-neck-and-raincoat look has long since been a mainstay of R&B music videos...
