    $50K in Diamonds on a pair of muthaphuckin’ tennis shoes! Hmmmmm…..and we wonder why we as Black folks hold material shit more important than relevant shit in “our” world! This is some ultimate NI**A shit if I’ve ever seen it….

    Niggerish!! That’s what they called it back in the day!! It’s staving people in the world and these dumb ass cats can’t find a better way of speading their fame and fortune around. You never hear about any of these cats giving to ther needey, only when it has something to do with promoting their artist or them. You don’t hear about them contributing to cancer or A.I.D.S. And blacks are leading in both!! Senseless

    I got to give it to him, he do have cash but it seems like the rappers down south spend they money on stupid shit like putting diamonds in a grill, a sneaker, and buying rims instead of investing all that money!! Big Boi is one of those rapper ballers with real long cash, I just thought he would be more wiser with his money, this is some young boy-niggerish shit. That’s why I always liked Andre with his sexy weird self!! Now niggers that can’t even afford monthly rent will be getting shot trying to keep up with the”Jones”!!
    We really need to wake up!! You can’t take none of that shit with you when you die!

    are y’all serious? someone GAVE him the shoes. he didn’t buy them. and you don’t know what he did with them after the store got its photo op. Big Boi could’ve donated ‘em to charity or gave ‘em to someone. if you don’t know and don’t take the time to find out the whole story then stop criticizing people!

    But some other stupid idiot will buy it just from seeing them on him and guess who that will be?
