You can't define Street Cred. You know it when you see it. Jay-Z has it. Basketball player Stephon Marbury personifies street cred. Brooklyn bred, handle born in the streets, just the right inflection in his speech, the can't-F-with-me strut. The little things. But he's also got an aspect of street cred that no worthy hipster can be without: mystery.

Either you have Street Cred or you don't
