[Music] what up everybody it's joe from complex we're in new york city at stadium goods with the legend ti it shows the impact that the culture has as a whole worldwide gonna do some sneaker shopping tonight to see what he's feeling what he's not and then hopefully he's gonna buy some sneakers you dig let's go [Music] back in the day you wore a lot of air maxes what were some of your favorites back then well you have the 87's you know what i'm saying those are always fly you have the 95 so you know that's
like dope boy that's synonymous with the trap like these uh steaks yeah you know you got to get these every time they drop you know what i'm saying it's kind of like a basic dope boy trap functional [ __ ] so this is this is what the cool guys were wearing absolutely absolutely then you know you got to your 97's you know what i'm saying and these were dope as well i always got to have a pair of metallics on on hand really as far as my repertoire goes i saw an old interview and one
thing he said is that even as a young kid you always used to put 150 aside so you always tried to get the new tennis shoes absolutely you had to have them i mean you know i'm saying it was imperative i mean i think that was like you know i'm saying that was the the foundation of the ensemble so you had to make sure your kicks were fresh and then atlanta do you remember going to greenbrier mall do i absolutely how many times and for how many different reasons i mean greenbrier that's what we went
and got out jays when they first dropped you know that's why i went and met goody mom at peppermint music you know what i'm saying so like that was like i a doorway into into half-ass definitely ti you talked about greenbriar mall copying jordan's do you remember your first pair the white blue and gray fours okay and what do you remember like growing up and watching him play relentless pursuits for championships you know what i'm saying his level of tenacity hadn't i hadn't seen it as a young as a young sports fan and you know
he always delivered never let you down i want to just shift down here a little bit yeah but you actually got to meet him a few times yeah i did i did i met him a few times man my favorites are the threes okay i believe you know all in all man i think the the threes are a lot more comfortable they don't feel like jordan's as much as and the ones too i'm just not getting into the ones more recently right three's classic the threes are classic man you can't get around them another uniform
shoe yeah i mean but you were mentioning when i met him in 06 yeah at the garden i think you were performing it was called the all-american classic right and there's a picture of you and him and he's signing was he signing yours though he was saying man he was saying in my shoes and i wore those just for him to be saying nice yeah that was a dope moment how has his interactions with you ben man not many people get to meet him even even famous people yeah i mean man george mj cool as
hell like he really he's he's a cool cat man we often talk about like poker strategies okay you know what i'm saying and he always imparts some kind of knowledge and wisdom before we pull away so i appreciate that did you get to play poker with him at all nah man i ain't very now uh uh we always been planning on sitting down together we have to make it happen pretty soon waiting in my bag to get a little bigger okay yeah those guys don't mess around waiting on my bag in some current nike section
something that you've been very vocal about colin kaepernick's support how important do you think that was to the community i mean i think it was incredibly important man for nike to uh you know show where they stood you know once the line in the sand had been drawn and i heard in one of their statements they said that they were willing to lose profits to be on the right side of history i think that you know a lot of corporations could take a page out of that book definitely and the people responded the stock all
the time yeah absolutely i think that you know what i'm saying it just shows man the people that people demand that equality be given out to all like equality and justice that's what this country's supposed to stand for definitely we talked about jordan but like the new guys what are some of the ones you like the best out of here um i like the the style of the lebrons especially early on okay later on it became more of a youth basketball like a utility basketball shoe yeah more functional and you know not as diverse in
style okay you know what i'm saying and uh same thing i feel the same thing about the kd the kyrie i've never i've never had a pair of those that i didn't wear to the gym i want to talk about you donating the shoes you recorded yay versus the people to trade the truce hurricane harvey relief right why was it important to donate those specific pairs to you you know those had the most notoriety to kind of garner uh the the highest bid to benefit the cause that had been sent forth you know it was
an important moment for hip-hop and i was a part of it you know i'm saying by the grace of god so i just wanted to you know contribute something significant and meaningful and yeah those valenciagas white with the neo i'm sure trey appreciated it right oh man yeah it's my brother man whatever i can do [Music] ti yeah you're one of the few who got khaled's threes yeah 14 grand right now hey priceless i mean i'm ecstatic that you know khaled has his own jordan you know i'm saying that's dope even more appreciative that he
