Dressed smart like a London bloke, before he speak his suit bespoke
from Estelle (Ft. Kanye West) – American Boy Lyrics on Rap Genius
Meaning
Queen’s English has bespoke meaning “custom-tailored,” but it’s also the simple past tense of bespeak, meaning to indicate. Kanye, master of puns, implements the double entendre to jab an Anglicized finger at the superficiality of designer fashion. Also, he’s just sort of talking up the effect his fashion has on the females. Pretty badass
Perhaps a triple entendre; the third meaning is that his style precedes him..
