What goes through these dudes minds that they think people wanna buy their shoes? I mean they all gotta start somewhere, but at some point they have to see themselves as not profitable. Like why cant they create and be BEHIND the scenes? Til this day, I have not seen the owners of the VANS shoe line.
this is way worse than that

he is selling knock off jordans with a bootleg ghetto Italian name

the levels of fukkery are astronomical

I'm more amazed at the amount of shyt Master P does with a straight face like he legit must think this is a good idea :wow:

if anyone was going to wear bootleg jordans they would wear bootleg jordans not bootleg jordans pretending to be balenciaga

:dead:

Sure. Master P bit:
OutKast (Hootie Hoo),
2Pac (Krazy was his Shyne),
Cash Money (P claims he owns the name Hot Boys),
E-40 (I have to give P a pass on this one, because his time in Northern Cali may have influenced the early No Limit sound)
Those are the only artists that P copied who I can say had as much of a cultural impact as Master P.

I'm not enough of a Master P fan to know how he bit Scarface (The GOAT), but I wouldn't say that either of the Luniz (Yuk or Numbskull) have made as big of an impact as Master P with their independent releases or Yukmouth's solo catalog.
"I Got 5 On It" is a classic, but that's where their legacy ends nationally. No diss, but even Tone Loc and Young MC got more burn out of their One-Hit Wonder status than the Luniz did, and Yuk even had J. Prince's backing for a long time.
I mean people who are relevent that are MIA.

When you say MIA can you clarify?

I named people who've had a cultural impact on hip hop.

I mean you said cultural impact. If a person with executive authority who uses a 20+ Year rap song talking about weed in one of the top movies of 2017, not cultural impact. I dunno what is.

Havent seen that with a P song as of yet as much being a cultural impact.

Tone Loc became a one hit wonder by accident and Young MC by proxy, not to mention where campy gimmicks at the time not considered "real" hip hop, by hip hops standards.

Yet to this day, I believe "I got 5 on it" will get more burn than Wild thing/Funky Cold Medina or Bust a move when it comes to crowd participation.

Vans has been around for decades. I bet when they started the owner was out on the front lines prompting his product.

MIA means missing in action.

I'm talking about people who've had an impact on the culture at large.

The Luniz did have a good moment when Jordan Peele used their hit single in the trailer for US. Nothing really came of it, except for them getting sued by Mike Murphy for back royalties. In fact, most of the talk of the song came from the remixed trailer version which didn't even make the movie soundtrack.

I'm not sure how old you are; but when this song came out, it was HUGE! It was frequently on BET, MTV, radio, and in clubs. Matter of fact, you can still hear it played at pro sporting events, HBCU band battles, etc.

Give Tone Loc his props. His run in the early 90's (2 hit singles, a cartoon, a few movie roles) was respectable. Anyway, Tone Loc & Young MC are still touring and making money. They were here in the DMV about a year ago and the crowd size was good. The Luniz aren't even together anymore.

Yet to this day, I believe "I got 5 on it" will get more burn than Wild thing/Funky Cold Medina or Bust a move when it comes to crowd participation.
When it comes to crowd participation, Wild Thing, Funky Cold Medina, and Bust a Move are songs that can make anybody of any age group hit the dance floor.
I Got 5 On It is a song you ride to or roll up too. It's not really a club song.
