He is guilty of every single thing he complains about.
You can't be serious! Dude is a noob cutting 5-figure checks per pair to OG collectors who shall remain nameless to buy into the scene a mere few years ago.
Indeed.
Oh, and BTW, there is no way he would be able to sell his collection for anywhere near that price.
Not haring - I have nothing against Mayor; we have 'nuff mutual friends - just facts.

Thank you.
...With a very few exceptions, I feel like just about anybody who puts themselves "out there" is part of the "problem" regardless of what they say.
Once you start promoting yourself, your message can't be pure. It becomes a pissing contest whether you want it to or not. At the very least, in order to be known like that, you have to align yourself with the outfits who killed whatever "subculture" aspect there was to this in order to get paid off it.
It's like a politician. You can say you're against a position, but if you are taking money from and lending your celebrity to those who don't support that cause, your message is compromised. Actions speak louder than words, and the company you keep tells people a lot about you.
I've turned down the opportunity to be featured in collection videos and stuff like that because even if that whole video is me talking about how the current state of things is ridiculous, that video is put out by somebody contributing the the ridiculousness of it, and any traffic it generates benefits them - they are getting the money for the ads, etc., not me. So no matter what my message is, they still win.
Look at somebody like Corgi - he has to opportunity to do whatever sneaker media he wants. But, he doesn't lend his voice to support outlets that aren't aligned with his POV. He did his interview on the sitdown, with people whose views align with his own. The "owner of the content" will benefit from the content more than the subject thereof, so only lend your draw to people who you are okay with yielding benefit from it.
That is not how most sneaker celebs behave. Complex doesn't care if you say, "Complex rules," or "Eff Complex." They eat the same off of you regardless. So, your message is irrelevant - your participation is your vote.

Powerful. Repped. I don't really care about "sneaker culture", but your statement is universal.

that's if he's actually paying for his gear and doesn't have connections to Nike, he said he got 9 yeezys for free and gave them away.
