That has nothing to do with my point. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. If lavar ball is "wrong " for the price tag on his sneakers then so r all these other high fashion companies. Hate on all of them if u feel that strongly about it. No need to give the selective outrage to a black man

it's no reason for Lavar shoes to cost $500.

He just trying to make as much money as possible. That's it

Lavar does not care about black business or group economics or any of that shyt.

The coli love Lavar and Floyd because they think these 2 make cacs mad.

I made a thread on this and it got bushed. Lavar is married to a white women (A sin on thecoli) and Floyd supported Trump ( a sin on thecoli). Yet and still they are Coli heroes

Jay z sounds dumb as hell on this point. Black people don't sit back and purposely NOT support brands because they're ran by us:comeon:

Look around in the room you're in, everything you see has a CEO behind it, and without using google you couldn't name 5 of em

That's how it's supppse to be..company CEO's shouldn't be out front trying to be the stars - you see that ever now and then (papa john's) and it's usually AFTER they've become CEOS and the brand is successful

He went further on about later in the interview. (Not word for word) Said that Jordan separated "himself" from Nike and became his own brand, but is still able to partner/work with Nike, but as Jordan.

Finally someone who listen
