The Commodification of Hipster Culture

I only like Remember Shuffle’s earlier stuff. On this episode, the Remember Shuffle crew put on their armchair sociologist hats and do a new kind of episode. Rather than discussing a movie, book, or album, they cover a countercultural figure that rebelled against the mainstream in the 2000s, The Hipster. The first entry in our “type of guy” series, the Shuffle Bois discuss why The Hipster emerged in the 2000s, their philosophies of irony, nostalgia, and a priorism. Also, What are the 3 types of hipster? How brands tried to use hipster culture to wallpaper over their unethical business practices, mainstream culture’s appropriation of hipster culture, and why countercultures as whole are dead.
