Is that suppose to be a controversial take? Listen to Nelly's Breakfast Club interview he said Harlem put him on game.

Harlem didn't make that song though. Harlem didn't double the price of forces. Harlem didn't send sales up 800%.

St. Louis, by way of the St. Lunatics, did that.

Forces are OUR shoe.

Y'all made it a hot line, we made it a hot song.

Nelly doubled the prices of Forces?

All whites is $90 in 2020

nikka you'd find a way to say New York influenced Jesus if you could.

That nikka Jesus got his whole swag from Max B look at his fukking hair

do people still rock uptowns? also they were never comfortable and they creased mad easy....

You from the East Coast asking this question?

 

[JoseLuisGotcha]

of course they do lol , you seen the amount of crazy color ways out

nah guess i havent been paying attention i was never really a fan they always felt clunky to me i like a better form fitting shoe/silhouette ....i rather rock with dunks/Jordan 1's

When Nelly dropped the song forces blew up overnight

Air Force were already poppin before Nelly but I agree with you. He probably did Influence the the rest of the country to catch up to AF1s after that song.


When I first heard that song I was confused what the hype was lol

They used to be $50 - that's why they were singing "give me two purrs".





If twitter ( thank St. Louis again ) were around in 2002 we'd be able to go back further than 2012.

Scalpers were selling them out the back of footlockers for even higher back then.

Why NY always hating on St. Louis?? We ain't never did nothing but show y'all love.

We had this debate today


Someone asked was there a shoe that blew up over night the way air force ones did and one Nia said chucks and a few other ppl agreed with him n it turned into a real violent debate


Whats yall take

chucks is a 103 yrs old.... n havent went anywhere...

Chucks are rocked in the east but not by hood nikkas. You ain’t going to see a dude with Timbs and AFs rocking chucks like that.


Laid back people rock them chucks tho. Never had one in my entire life

Gotta be the most random regional thing I ever heard in my entire life. But then again this is the coli

I was laughing at the shyt this week of twitter saying Nelly is the reason they rocked uptown’s. I’m like none of these twitter followers are from the east coast or maybe they 12 years old

He must have doubled them out there. In present day they’re $90 so if y’all was paying $100 for AF1’s in the mid-00’s that’s crazy.

I remember I used to buy a white and black pair, whites for the summertime and black to match my school uniform as a kid it was no more than $75 for them.

No hate to St. Louis it’s just that NY and other cities was already rocking ‘em. The shoe been out since the early 80’s ballers like Moses Malone used to wear them.
