New York, rooftop and Bandana: the highlight moment signed Roy Woods x PXP

Roy Woods was spotted in New York, perched on a rooftop, wearing the Bandana jacket from Project X Paris's FW25 collection. A simple image, but full of meaning: an international artist, an iconic skyline, and a key piece from our wardrobe.

Roy Woods, a unique voice in modern RnB

Born in Toronto in 1996, Roy Woods has established himself as one of the standout figures in contemporary RnB. Spotted early by Drake, he joined the OVO Sound label and released projects blending melancholy, trap rhythms, and dreamy choruses.

Tracks like “Drama”, “Jealousy”, and “Say Less” have defined his signature: a recognizable voice, a nocturnal vibe, and a polished visual universe. Roy Woods represents a generation of artists blurring the lines between RnB, rap, and street culture.

Seeing him wear a PXP piece from our FW25 collection in New York is no coincidence. It’s the meeting of two scenes speaking the same language: music, style, and attitude.

 

Drake, OVO Sound, and the culture of style

It’s impossible to talk about Roy Woods without mentioning Drake.

Founder of OVO Sound, Drake has built a universe that goes beyond music. OVO is a sound, a logo, an artistic direction. It’s also a cultural bridge between Toronto, New York, and major world capitals.

Drake has always maintained a strong connection with fashion. From his collaborations to his front row appearances, he has helped establish a premium aesthetic in contemporary rap. The OVO environment values bold silhouettes, graphic pieces, and a global vision of streetwear.

Seeing Roy Woods wear the PXP FW25 Bandana jacket in New York fits perfectly within this logic. An international scene, an artist affiliated with OVO, and a Parisian brand that dialogues with street codes.

 

Roy Woods x PXP: a natural connection

Why was it obvious?

Because Roy Woods embodies an aesthetic that perfectly matches the DNA of Project X Paris: bold silhouettes, graphic pieces, strong references to urban culture.

The FW25 Bandana jacket he wears on this New York rooftop fits this logic. The bandana pattern is a symbol deeply rooted in the history of streetwear and hip-hop. It spans eras, from the West Coast to international scenes, and returns today in revamped, sharper versions.

Overlooking New York with this piece sends a clear message: PXP plays in the league of major metropolises.

 

New York, historic capital of streetwear

It’s impossible to talk about streetwear without mentioning New York.

It’s in its neighborhoods that hip-hop culture exploded in the 70s and 80s. The Bronx, Harlem, Brooklyn: these territories gave birth to a style that goes beyond music to influence fashion, art, and sports.

New York is also the rise of brands that have become cult:

  • Supreme, born in Manhattan in 1994
  • Stüssy, which solidified its aura on the East Coast
  • Timberland, adopted by a whole generation of New York rappers
  • Ralph Lauren, revisited by street crews
  • Tommy Hilfiger, worn by hip-hop icons of the 90s

Every street tells a page of this story.

 

New York Yankees, New Era: the ultimate symbol

When thinking of New York and urban style, one image instantly comes to mind: the New York Yankees cap signed by New Era.

Originally a simple baseball accessory, it has become a global emblem. Worn by rappers, artists, and creators, it transcends sport to become part of global culture.

This alliance between the Yankees and New Era perfectly embodies the link between performance, local identity, and international reach. Exactly what New York represents in street imagination.

 

A rooftop, a skyline, a global vision

Seeing Roy Woods in the FW25 Bandana jacket on a New York rooftop is more than product placement. It’s a powerful image: a dialogue between Toronto, Paris, and New York.

The urban scene knows no borders. Artists travel, influences circulate, silhouettes export.

With this appearance, Project X Paris joins this global dynamic. A brand born in Paris, worn in New York by a Canadian artist affiliated with OVO.

The circle is complete. And the story is just beginning.
