Avant Garde

Someone who thinks they are "too cool for school". They think they have the flyest kicks, and gear bruh. Usually can be seen wearing skinny jeans, and a cardigan, with matching nike sb's. they think they are ahead of their time, even though all the other db's are wearing the same thing.

Generally these are the people you think are faggots.

They are trying to be trend setters, for trends already set,homo.
HAHAH bruh, check out that faggot over there, he thinks he is avant garde.

avant garde hip-hop 

hip hop music made almost exclusivly by white males for other white males. often called nerd-rap by people who find it pretensious and geeky due to the sometimes very abstract lyrics, which often (or in the case of the anticon collective, almost always) do not rhyme.
Anticon fan: "Yo, i'ma go listen to some avant garde hip-hop shit and read chemistry books"

avant garde
