Dear Jay-Z: I’m 14 & Won’t Be Caught Dead In Your $695 Ski-Mask

[the artist known az]

these shyt's cost $700 and they sell at Barney's. you think they're projecting this to sell to anyone besides rich white people? c'mon...

Exactly...they need to go on the website and look at the other shyt they sell. $82 for boxers, $75 for a tank top

Fake black outrage pt. 254......niccas will still make sure they copping that new iPhone or Js tho....this shyt is corny to me

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

Lmap da fukk, is he forced to buy it?

 

[Wildin]

Jay Z has hauled ass from Marcy Projects. Son is not trying to go back AT ALL. He only has to sell 1500 of an item that costs $695 to make a mil.

I am not mad at all. Thats genius business planning. I mean OJ could create a limited line of Isotoners and release 1500 for $695 or even 3000 pairs...give a lil kick back, have a milly in the bank....Even if the masses hate it...1500 or 3000 thats not a lot at all really....

Pretty well written for a 14 year old

lil homey wants to go into biochemistry, so you reaffirm the stereotype of black boys being too ignorant to converse their feelings on social issues when you suggest the need for ghostwriters.

lil homey for being socially conscious

I went to PG County schools and my diction was excellent

That being said, that kid speaks nothing like any 14 year old I know.

1. I don't see anything so breathtaking in that letter that suggests that it's so unbelievable that a 14 year old could have written it.
2. Not everyone writes in the exact same manner that they speak.
3. I went to NYC Public schools. I can say with certainty that when I was 11, I could write better than most of you people can now.

I can't get down with this fake movement.

It could be true but the voice speaks of someone much older. There aren't even that many adults who know how to use a proper semicolon. Unless it was proofread and edited before published then it just seems a bit too neat.

11 year old scholar, huh?

nikkaz will complain about anything.

Let camel live

Basically. Suddenly it seems that there is some idea in the air that all of us was supposed to buy this stuff. Does shorty write the same thing to Gucci, LV, and Ferragamo? Because believe it or not, Jay-Z did not invent expensive sh!t.

Bet this dude got some $200 Jordans though

Truth. Dude was buying a $300 belt when the racist shyt happen in a store that sells overpriced shyt, but yet let us focus on the overpriced Jay-Z shyt....the outrage doesn't make sense especially when bytches be buying overpriced shoes and bags

Is Jordan selling an exclusive line targeting black people in a store that hates openly black people?




Plus a pair of shoes that can last for many years and possibly grow in value vs a ski mask that will be lame to wear in 2 months doesn't compare.

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

Hmm. I see we're still playing "angry negro" because we don't want to face the real issue at hand.


These companies/brands don't want you black folks business. So you can play dumb and cry about Jay-Z all you want. You're not gonna buy Jay-Zs mask but you'll still go to barneys (that booting your black asses out their store) to buy Louis Vuitton and other brands. LOL @ nikkas trynna scapegoat the issue threw Jay-Z and at this point Jay-Z is just trolling you nikkas cause he see's the idiocy in it.


But I definately wouldn't expect a black feminist (which is who wrote that fake ass letter) that writes for complex to see that.

It's a crime that this post does not have more daps. When Hov was decisive in his response to Cristal racist position, muddafawkas still purchased Cristal

I don't co-sign no overpriced clothing, no matter who makes it

Muddafawkas have defended Jordan's lack of response to the fuss over his overpriced shoes, robberies, and no-nikka attidue with....bu bu they have control of their actions and bu bu it is his money

Now, those arguments don't apply to Hov who have addressed the racist shyt with a BS new committee review position to at least show some response was made to the racist situation. He could've remained quite like Jordan,Gucci,LV and other brands, over issues that affect black consumers, black designers, and black models and continue to eat
