Big Boi Says “They Got Me” – Talks About the Fake Jordans (Video)

| June 2, 2009 | Comments (75)

Here is it is folks, straight from the man himself, Big Boi. Our Atlanta homie MauriceGarland hit us up yesterday after he spoke with Big Boi about the Jordans he wore to Sneaker Pimps ATL. Maurice exclusively told us Big Boi saw him and said “You got something you wanna ask me about my shoes?”. MG replied and said “Yeah, were they real?”. Mr. Patton explains what happen and how he got the shoes. CHECK IT OUT and see for yourself.

Big ups to MauriceGarland and Outkast is still the ish!

This should put an end to everything you wanted to know.

  1. That’s mad funny. F&%$ the shoes, look at the car!!!!!
    You want to know what’s funnier than that????? The cat that sold him those Js for $500 a piece is the one that I respect. Big Boi probably bought that guy a Phantom too!!!!!!
    A lot of you guys need to use spell check or go spend $500 on some grammar classes or something. I would assume that most of us that are blogging on here are above the age of five. You guys can spot a fake J from a mile away but can’t spot an incomplete sentence or a mispelled word. LOLOLOL

    well if you just buy a shoe because it has a jumpman on it then you arent a sneakerhead either… real sneakerheads buy what they like, they dont buy a brand. and like i said i could care less about him wearin fakes, what got me is how he’s claiming to be a shoehead and talking about how he’s been in the game and collected over 400 kicks, but he doesnt know the easiest thing; how to tell a real shoe from a fake one.

    1st of all, ain’t nobody in this freakin world perfect. We all are human & make mistakes. Celebrities make any false move, they gonna get their 15 minutes of fame, I mean shame cuz they in the spotlight & everybody’s got their eyes peeled on WTF they wearin, WTF they drivin, & WhoTF they f#*kin. Y’all really think they (famous folks) spend as much time on the internet as we do lookin for the illest joints before they debut @ the local spot? C’mon mayne, they take a sh!t on gold plated toilets & read the Robb Report for cryin out loud. Another thing, ain’t no1 will have the balls/nuts/courage & heart to confront Big Boi or any O.G. rapper thats been in the game 15 yrs+ bout any bootleg kicks they got on. Thats real….Cuz I know Sir Lucious will put a price on my head if I dare to bump my gums @ em….Stankonia & Aqumini are my all time fav….Yadadajarara?!

    ^yungmoneydjt-he never claimed to be a sneakerhead! He is just into nice kicks, although this wasn’t a very good choice. But you did say that REAL sneakerheads buy what they like, right? Isn’t that what the FUCK he did? So what if they are fake. He bought them because he liked them. As I recall, he did say that he didn’t have enough money to buy them when they first released…that means he already had an admiration for the shoe itself. So who the hell are you to judge this man on what he buys? 10 years ago…come on dude. That’s when most of all your favorite rappers were wearing fake kicks and calling them exclusives. Hell, fake kicks were selling better than authentics were! Bottom line-get your mind right and don’t worry about what this guy’s closet looks like.

    nonetheless….”F**K da SHoe…look at the car MF!” lmao

  10. NZA36 says:

  15. Matt Jones says:

    What an Idiot…i hate people who disrespect the shoe game…rich people don’t know anything about shoes…dropping those V’s on the pavement is just ridiculous…LOL “500 dollars for about 4 pairs…” what BS

  16. @ chevyboy, varski-203, spradley8 and whoever else has something to say about first off I said in my last comment that those were my own opions and for the most part they were facts. Props on whoever said above that they were customs, I found out that was true, they still look fishy to me but I can’t argue with facts. As for people saying get a life SNEAKERS ARE MY LIFE BITCH!!! So shut they hell up talking about that, just as professonlas take there craft serious whether it be basketball, football, art, or everyday professions like accounting, mangement, and so on. This is my craft my art and my soon To be profession, meaning sneaker an streetwear will soon be the way I put food on the table for my family. So I take this as serious as other people take there lives and professions do, because this is the way I make Money and a great living for my family. So when I see people perpatrating my “Craft” it offends me directly and there is no excuses that will sufice, whether it be ignorance or just plain direct disrespect!!! I take this serious so for all u part time sneaker enthuist find a new hobby because sneakers are my WAY OF LIFE AND WILL BE HOW I EARN AND PAY MY BILLS VERY SOON!!!

  17. chevyboy says:

    ^Sneakernerd-RICO: It may be the way for you to be able to pay your bills pretty soon, and that’s good for you, but this is EXACTLY what you said it is to me…a HOBBY. I have a job. But don’t come at me with the bullshit: I am a true and faithful sneakerhead, and I don’t condone wearing fakes. But everyone has slipped before. You coming on here acting like you are all high and mighty. To me, you’re just a HYPEBEAST who doesn’t have anything better to do. My opinions are exactly that-opinions-and I have the right to express them, just like you do. Word of advice: take honest criticism for what it is and move the fuck on…You will never make it far in your so-called business if you don’t.

    Big Boi Isn’t That Big on Sneakers
    And just wears Them To Be Wearing Them.
    Drake…. On The other Hand Actually Collects

    Like Air Yeezy’s Cool Grey 3′s, Aqua 8′s, CDP 3′s.
    I Mean… come on. Ain’t no Way them 5′s He Got Fake. got
    To be Custom.

  19. Cleveland222 / Andrew says:

    Not everything in life is about money Big Boi. Screw the car, and know what you’re talkin about. Do some research before you open your ignorant mouth talkin bout “spacejams.”

  20. Chevyboy kindly move the FUCK ON AND SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH AND QUIT TRYING TO CKME ONE HERE TALKING SHIT TO ME. And as for me being a hypebeast, really that was original move on with that wack shit. I’m far from that u idiot so just keep your mouth shut and when me shop opens soon it will be that much more sweet because dumb asses like u will have more reason to hate. I’m sure your collection I as WACK A U, I’m sure u have a SLAB, WACK AS FAG WHILE IM PUSHING THAT Brand new 2009 750li BMW!! So keep your mouth shut like I said before and just move on and leave my name out your mouth. And if u just could’ve stated your opion without putting my name in your mouth I wouldn’t have had to even come back and SMASH your dumb ass. Sorry and move on homie. Sorry for all the fowl language G-roc it’s just when peope come at me I have to put those idiots in there place.

  21. chevyboy says:

    ^Sneakernerd-RICO: And you calling me WACK is original? This ain’t what you want, homeboi! Please calm down and check your blood pressure before you have an aneurism (if you know what that is). You might wanna think about trading that Beamer in for some change to start your little “business” and gettin it on it’s feet. Maybe if you act a little more like a responsible grown-up, my boy G-Roc will give you some pointers. As far as my collection goes, maybe it is lame to you because you sound like you are on some really gay shit right now. My collection consists of shit that I like. I don’t care what anyone else thinks about it. If they like it, cool with me. If they don’t, it doesn’t matter. I don’t buy shoes to put on someone else’s feet. As far as my whips, try this on for size: I OWN all three of my vehicles, meaning I have the titles to them all. You probably don’t even know what a title looks like. Like I said before homeboi, get your mind right and grow up!

  22. ^^ Funny how you talk maturity but, you on here like me talking shit. As for my whip I’ll have the title soon so I’m not tripping on that but all that U don’t want this bull shit, calm your ass down. You aren’t scaring anyone with all that tuf internet thug bullshit. And that great u got sneakers u like and u dont care what people like, I can actually agree with that only difference between u and me is people Love all my sneakers just because I have great taste in sneakers. So from now I’m done with u, I’m moving on and so should you and dont worry about when I blow up my Shop will be on TSG so just leave me alone and I’ll do the same for you, either way Im done wasting my time with u.

  23. chevyboy says:
