It's amazing how warped some of y'alls understanding of whats popular is.

A BASKETBALL shoe can only be popular to a lot of y'all nikkas if dudes are wearing them in the club,using them to impress hoes, or not playing basketball.

I really think that the majority of y'all who adhere to this line of thinking, haven't been in a gym in years.

THAT is exactly where it matters.

That demographic is the one who buys the majority of NBA tickets and merchandise.
exactly... my boy always says the same dumb shyt.... you can tell a nikka that never been nowhere or had business stakes


he the type to say ".....................b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but nikkas in the hood don't like it" about EVERYTHING


yo i just sold 5k records online... "yea b-b-b-b-b-b-but nikkas in the hood ain't listening to that"


yo i just sold 50 tees in brazil last week "yea b-b-b-b-b-b-but nikkas in the hood ain't wearing that"


yo i just fukked this fine ass broad over in ireland "yea b-b-b-b-b-b-but you ain't got no bytches in the hood"


like you do realize those are the people with the LEAST amount of anything correct? you marketing your projects based on the hood purchasing them, you gonna be a broke ass nikka... money is money everywhere... you don't see ralph lauren saying "damn all these white people buying my shyt, how can i stop this and get more of this hood money"

Everywhere...You never there.
Y'all ain't hoopin' if y'all don't see the youngins rockin' the Curry's ... especially the AAU youngins. I will say the young :mjpls: demo is a tad heavy for the Currys. But no, no one is rooking them as streetwear with the exception of hardcore athletic heads. that's not the argument here and it shouldn't be...

But UA about to have this athletic wear on lock real soon.

im not talking about tickets and merchandise thou; just strickly shoes..and those weak ass currys aren't as popular as mikes or lebrons and never will be unless the urban community start rocking them too..

And to that clown @The Devil's Advocate, keep thinking there's no money to be made in the urban community all you want, but the number #1 reason mikes is still popular IS because of the hood/urban community..fukk all that extra shyt you talking about, im only talking about the shoes

I promise you if you break down Nike sales, that is not even close to where they make most of their money

You another dumb nikka thinking about only what you see. We 10% of the population of America. Which is only 300 million people.

If you think the hood dictates anything besides what other hood nikkas is doing. Then please tell us why no hood fashion label lasts longer than 5-7 years max

Jordan made 100 million last year. That's not counting what Nike made off Jordan. There ain't enough black people in America to be responsible for that.

nikkas come in with percentages, sales FACTS, and figures from reputable companies. And you gonna tell us and them the real truth huh? Based on what? Bullshyt
