Remy Ma isn’t letting a pregnancy stop her bag. While she prepares to welcome her first child together with husband Papoose, the “Love and Hip Hop: New York” star is launching a new clothing line with Vim Vixen.

The rapper announced her collaboration with the women’s fashion brand Wednesday, Oct. 24, on Twitter, the proceeds from which will benefit her foundation to provide education and career-training resources to women released from prison.

“So excited to finally launch my clothing line thru @vimvixen! A portion of the proceeds will go towards my @RemyFoundation for previously incarcerated women. Stop by any VimVixen store in the 5 boroughs & NJ or purchase the #REMYMACOLLECTION online at http://SHOPVIMVIXEN.COM,” she tweeted.

In a longer caption on Instagram, Remy, who was previously incarcerated for six years, explained both projects were something she’s been longing to tackle.

“I am so very proud of this moment!” she said. “Launching both a clothing line and foundation are two things I have been very passionate about since my release from prison! I want to thank my entire team and @VIMVixen for seeing and supporting my vision of helping women all over the country! Stay tuned, because I will be giving my fans a chance to win a shopping spree really soon!”

“I promise you, you will not be disappointed. We have all the cutest, sexiest, flyest, most amazing, poppin’ clothes that you would think Remy Ma would be having in her collection,” Remy says in the accompanying clip.

With prices ranging from $19.99 to $29.99, the affordable clothing line features sequined tops, pants and skirts, tees, jumpsuits and jeans.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
