Welcome back to Black Market is open.
Sweet I, you know.
Bro, somebody get on Amazon and order me to fucking triangle.
I'm sick of this shit.
Look, man, I'm tired of y'all asking me about these kicks.
And look, we're just going to put it all out there right here today, bro.
What kind of black market would it be if we didn't have no shoes in the...
What hood mall you ever went to
And they didn't have four shoes stuff
Facts
That's the truth
That's the most important of the culture, man
And look, man
I ain't even gonna introduce you
Because
Nah, it's gonna be hard to get kicks and shit
Because not everybody gonna know who the legit plug is
Bro, just tell them, man, tell him.
Man, look, man, y'all already know what it is, man
Your Boy, Mr. Flott Academy kicks, man
labeled as a celebrity sneaker plug, man, you know?
This is my god Carlos, man, you know what I'm saying?
Welcome to the 85 South show, man.
You know what I'm saying?
This is my guy, man.
You got a special guest here today, man.
You know what I'm saying?
This is my dog, man.
No, you've been on it for real, for real, man.
Bruh, and it's like, you know, I've been getting,
I can't even remember how long I've been getting kicked from.
Like 2017?
For real, for a minute.
It's been a long time, but look,
but that's over a couple hundred pairs probably.
Yeah, facts.
For real, but it's like, man,
how did you stay so true to being a legit?
shit plug all throughout the years.
Because you've seen some plugs started out
legit and then they flaked off.
But man, you didn't turn this shit
into a whole other empire for real.
Yeah, I mean, I think that's perfect
because for me it's more than just selling sneakers.
Like, it's deeper than the kicks.
For me, it's about building the generational wealth
and, you know, having a business.
I'm very, like, business mind.
You know, coming from the streets,
you learn a lot of things in the streets
that you can translate to owning a business.
So for me, it was just,
I didn't want to be looked at as a person
who just sling shoes out the car.
But, you know, I'm actually like building the empire
because whether you believe or not, man,
sneakers are very important, bro.
When it comes to a black man.
Yes, most definitely, you know what I'm saying?
Sometimes you're going to pick out your kicks first
before you even get your clothes.
Yeah.
And sometimes when you meet people,
you look at their shoes first before,
you even look at their face.
Right.
So, you know, having sneakers is very important.
So, you know, I learned from the mistakes of other people
because there's so many people that became sneaker plugs
and they started moving up.
That ladder, man, started me to be able to sell the celebrities,
started making that good money
and then they started getting to them
and they never stood to their principles
or they never stood to the foundation that they built
one of the first thing
my foundation is built on God man
so I believe in always doing business
the right way because he always gonna bless me
so it's always deeper than that man
and I study the game man
I learn from the mistakes of other people
and you know that what makes me successful
man I heard you get ready to open up the whole store
yes indeed
damn one of many
he never gonna get shit
nah man I'm always
take care of you, man, because, you know, you took
a chance on me when I was starting out in the game, bro,
you know, and you gave me the opportunity that I ran
way, and you don't put me on with a couple of people,
bro. Yeah, because people would be hitting me
out of frustration. You know, though, you've seen
those Saturday morning, bro.
Motherfuck's heart to be hurting.
Hey, man, if you know anybody
that can get me, my baby, my sister,
my mom, my auntie, we need nine
pals. Yeah. We need a five
wide all way up to a 13.
But I know a few people that hit me
And be like, man, thank you.
I really appreciate that, bro.
You got them to me.
Yeah, most definitely.
I appreciate you for, you've been doing that for me, man.
Man, shit, it's more about, like you said, the love of the game.
You feel, man.
I always try to make sure that people got, you know, the right information to make the right decisions.
You know, sometimes it's a bad thing, too, when you withhold a sneaker plug in for,
because I'm gonna tell you, when you do good business, nobody ever want to give you up.
So it kind of put, like, a stop to your growth a little bit.
I got like, I sell to a lot of celebrities, bro.
And they'd be like, nah, I can't do a shout-out, bro.
You all what I said?
Because I'm scared.
I'm like, listen, take care of me.
I'm going to take care of you.
But listen, it's some big names out there, bro.
I'm telling you, every day you watch TV and you see some jays on somebody feet
and know I sold some shoes to them.
Amen.
It's just that serious.
Especially at the war show, man, I'd be like, that's my boy.
You know what I'm saying?
You just don't know, but that's my guy right now.
You feel you?
That's how dirty the game is, though, especially when it's like,
you remember shit.
I remember when motherfuckers can walk in the stuff.
And it just, shit, the Jordans was there
because they was in your size.
Everybody wasn't just able to go buy them out like that.
And then the internet came,
and then the resale game, like, blew up.
And then all these apps start popping up.
But it's like, man, can't nobody get shit no more.
Yeah, it comes from the culture voters, man.
Like, you know, some of us, the OGs who really like the kicks
where I always tell people, sometimes when you look at a pair of flu games,
the flu games mean a little different for some people
some people that was their first pair of shoes they got
some people remember sitting down in front of the TV
and watching the game when joy and water them
you know what I'm saying but then you have like
the younger generation who just see it as a dollar sign
and they kind of ruined the game a little bit
you know even you know with me I do the YouTube
where I review the sneakers and I always talk
about that man I would like you know
times are changing but the people that's falling in love
with the shoes now is more for the money
they couldn't tell you what was the story
behind that shoe they just know that shoe going for
$500 so they want to get it
So then you run into having to fight those people.
You know what I'm saying?
But, I mean, that's why it's good.
When you got somebody like me, man, I...
The game is just at a point where it's just so stupid right now.
It's like, the Ben and Jared Dunks are sold out.
Nakes can't even...
Niggins is lactose.
You get what I'm saying?
The paradox of this shit.
And then, like, dunks back then were like just $60, man.
And now you see...
Yeah, now you see Dunks going for $900, $1,100.
You know what I'm saying?
$700.
and $800 like the game the game changes man but you know you just got to involved with it you know
I will I'll be lying if I say the way the game change didn't help some of us the way we advanced
in life by you know taking this avenue but um it definitely changed a lot man but that's the one thing
that scared me about being a snickerhead though is just thinking I'm gonna be 80 years old
where the fuck I'm gonna find me some flu game 12s some 13 some cement three
They don't come back out.
We won these sheds for ever.
They're gonna keep coming out, man.
It's fucked up.
You think they're gonna make us some orthopedic jays?
I mean, you got a team, George.
When we can't do laces no more, they're gonna have,
everything gonna have straps on it.
Ugh.
I'm clean in this bitch.
No, man.
Well, shit, I guess we've been talking shit long enough.
where you could at least tell them where to fucking hit you, man.
Shit.
Look, man, look, look.
Y'all go hit me on IG, man, Flight Academy.
I don't know where I'm looking at, but...
Picked Academy.
All right, so Flight Academy underscore Kicks on IG.
Like you said, I am opening my first store, man,
in Lakeland Mall and Lakeland, Florida.
So it's gonna be a Lakeland Square Mall.
Yes, indeed, man.
Yes, indeed.
So look forward to that.
And it's gonna be the first of many, man.
I got a plan, so I don't want to say the cities
because, you know, people watch it.
But you know, they come in there, so.
You know, we just went back on tour,
and you can see we got, we got about one 17th of the stab here,
so we're gonna have to get some,
we're gonna need some boxes sent.
I got you, I'm gonna take you,
I'm gonna make sure you get your 11 first,
and then everybody else gets straight.
Yeah, bro, D.C., he need a 9.
She's gonna need about 11, something like that.
He wears a 7th, little boys.
No, I'm sure everybody's going to drop their request and all of that shit.
You paying for everybody or I was going to stay ahead of the game, bro.
Bro.
What's your favorite joint, though?
My favorite join, just the original white C-Men 3s.
Yeah, that's my shit.
they just hit so different
and they go with a lot too
and then just make it feel like
you almost about to graduate college
because those was hitting real hard
around like when different world was new
so you would always see
like a lot of
like Cadeem Hartison
he always had some threes or fours on
like he really was running through
the joins before fresh prints
like watching a different world
like Dwayne Wayne
always had some fresh
Jazz.
Martin stayed fresh, too.
Hell yeah.
Him and, and Ryan used to kick him every now and then,
but Kadeem Hart's always had the Jays on a different world.
Wow.
Yeah.
But First Prince, he wore a lot of, Martin.
Yeah.
Busts a lot of Jays.
Martin stayed fresh, man.
Yeah, yeah.
So, you know, it's just so part of the culture and the time that we grew up in.
I don't think nothing ever going to have the same impact, you know,
to our culture as that shoe did.
Yeah.
Just watching them shit come out.
You remember when Mike used to have the new Jays
way before they came out.
Like you watching the game like, man, what the fuck is going?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was lacing up fresh bread on a day night, man.
Man, having to go skip school to go get some Jays.
Mm-hmm.
And I think like everything just kind of coming back
because you look at now, the fashion,
it's like back to ventures now.
So the things they were wearing in the 80s
coming back to it, man.
So like, he just keep going in the circle.
Man, the 80s coming back around.
Niggins been beat in the club with corduroy on like a motherfucker.
What's that fashion, man?
Man, shit.
What's the most extensive kid of Jay in you, sir?
Shout it to my guy Tink, man.
He sold him to D-O-1s.
The D-O-1s run about like 15 bands.
So, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, man.
15,000. I think that's the most, that's the most of supposed to one.
Well, I'll take some.
It's the retro ones, man. You gotta get you a pair in the closet.
Nah, I don't need no pair of shit like that.
No, no, no, no. Hell no.
I ain't going nowhere, but I'm gonna need $15,000.
You know, he's like real high in fashion, though, man.
Like, he's real high on fashion, man.
Well, that's a great thing to be.
I'm from Mississippi.
If the motherfucker even thought, I paid $15,000 for some shit.
Boy, you then went up there and lost your goddamn mind.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
He didn't raise you like that.
But, lost his goddamn mind.
My uncle already then fucked around and went on Google
and think I got $6 million.
That nigga called me mad as a mother.
Oh, really, since you got six million months.
Six million motherfucking dollars.
You can't send me shit, motherfuckers.
I was like, what are you talking about?
Yeah, I said, you know, on the internet,
motherfuckin' say you were six million dollars.
All right.
I was like, do you believe that shit?
You're motherfucking right.
Like, oh, please stay off that shit.
That is a lie.
That's crazy, man.
I am poor.
That's why I work so much.
Please help me.
Please help me.
I don't have anything.
Nah, I'm just bullshit, man.
We're extremely blessed, man.
I hope you get to bless the streets.

Who you think should have had a shoe?
At least that didn't have a shoe
that should have had one.
Man
that's a tough one bro
because pretty much some of all them got them
they just either went through
like companies that wasn't that popular
I don't know
I'm trying to think of somebody just like off the wall
I don't know
What y'all think?
Tio should have had a shoe
Who you say?
Raj Strickland
Rye Strickland
Oh, I was thinking basketball
Yeah, Tio, yeah
Kwame Brown
Hell yeah
De Quamie Brown
Air Force One
Who
Don't want to hit, man
Who?
Who?
No, I say
Kwame could be
Triplett
Triple Blas
I feel like
Trick Daddy should have
been the ambassador
of black
Air Force One
You're right, bro.
You're right.
Trick Daddy could have definitely had the shoe.
At least a rebutt.
Yeah, definitely a rebob.
Definitely rebar.
The soldier rebutt.
Oh, soldier boy.
That's something.
Soldier boy.
Soldier boy didn't did so much for the culture at this point.
But he got the baby.
He was really nice shoes.
He needs a Nike.
A regular Nike that's in rotation.
Like that evolves.
You don't just need to be no one-time shit.
People got to give a soldier more credit, man.
He's going to give it to himself.
Yeah.
But you know what's funny with him, though?
He come out every other day.
Y'all niggas got me fucked up.
Y'all know I had now ladies first.
But you know, when you go back and look at some of the stuff
he's saying, he actually be telling the truth, man.
But it's so weird.
The nigga then told 95% truth.
He might have flipped up and said the wrong shit once or twice.
But that nigga said Steve Jobs brought him his iPhone.
Ain't a nigga in the world going to top that?
How ain't you going to top that?
Can't.
That's a wrap up for that.
Steve Jobs was probably sitting there.
What do you think, soldier?
Do we have something?
Amazing.
Soldier likes it.
He probably had a bigger influence on the iPhone than we'll ever understand.
Because he was at the beginning of the internet area.
That was how Steve Jobs used to walk in and talk to the goddamn.
He got all this staff and then they stand in their way.
He's quiet.
I don't know.
I've never seen him before.
And then next thing.
you hear it, you!
Soldier boy, tell him.
Hi, guys.
Hi, welcome to Apple.
Bro.
That's crazy, man.
That probably was the shit he used to listen to the test
how the speakers was going to sound on me.
No, I don't know if you guys know this,
but we've done some extensive research,
but listening to Soldiers' boys' music
all the way up on an iPhone
will really test to see what quality the speakers are.
Nope
Look
We gotta go back
To the Dornboard
These didn't pass
To crank that test
Soldier needs on
Our phone man
Yep
It needs to be
Black on too
Yeah, yeah
And it need to cost
$212
Flat out
Why $212?
Because
That's a great
introductory price
He's good
They give us
One sum
At 212
Then the next
When they come out
Because you know
He's gonna put
A bunch of
Soldier Boy shit on there
It's gonna be
a place to make beats.
It's going to be a game.
It's going to be a whole bunch of shit
that you can't take off.
That's crazy, man.
That's crazy.
That'd be hard.
No, it definitely will.
Every time you get a text message,
that bitch going to be like,
bough, bough.
So did it was dropping him.
Big Draco.
Man, we fuck with him the long way.
That niggins straight out of him.
sipping, so he's gonna be forever good
with me.
Not facts, man.
Yeah, man.
He did a lot of shit.
Groundbreaking.
But hell, there you have it, folks.
I don't know what else to give you
because I didn't gave you everything.
You got him a plug now.
I guess I get back to win
these goddamn
crocs and shit.
No, man, you're gonna be good, bro.
Man, you don't understand these people.
These nings are gonna be like, finally.
Now, some may be mad at you, man.
You gave out a plug.
I'm telling you, bro.
It's a lot of.
that don't want to tell nobody about me, man.
I didn't told them.
It ain't, it ain't shit else I can do, bro.
It's a rap.
What's some of the strangers, before we get out of here,
what's some of the strangest request
that people have hit you for?
You're like, you want them.
You know what it is, man?
People always just find pictures on the internet
and just think every shoe is real.
Like, it'd just be like the weirdest shoes,
man, I'd be like, I ain't ever seen that before.
Like, they just Google,
they'll put in a color in a shoe
and then whatever pop-up can you get me these.
Like, no, they ain't even a real shoe.
I know I bought some shit that ain't available
because I had saw this,
nigga on, you know,
shit just pop up on your feet.
He was made, he was just, like, fed up
with not being able to get shit, so he just
started, like, making his own custom
shit.
Yeah.
Man, this nigga made some fucking
Yeezy Air Max.
I think, I think me and him
the only one that got some.
Well, when I tell you, these bitches
is so cold.
For real?
I see a picture.
These motherfuckers are so cold.
I was like, bro, make me a great pet,
too.
I'm gonna send them to you.
I don't know if you seen anything before.
I might bust them bitches out,
but they cold as fuck and the bottom's gluck.
You gonna wear them out of public?
Yeah.
Because it's not like there's a knockoff.
He just did a custom.
They just custom.
Got you, got you, got you.
That shit went exactly how I planned it to go.
