Rapper Nelly Talks Smack On Kobe Bryant’s Ugly A$$ Shoes
The inimitable biographer and now gossip sleuth Ian Halperin at Ianundercover.com, points to a video showing rapper Nelly (one of my favorites) talking shoes and some smack Why? Well, apparently growing up in the hood of St. Louis, you were what you wore, and for poor Nelly, what his family could afford was lacking in “style.”
Apparently, so are the shoes NBA great Kobe Bryant created. Watch the above video to hear the hurtful words hurled at Bryant’s not-so-fly footwear, Hyperdunks. Sort of sounds like meth-donuts if you ask me.
On a side note, before the 2008 Olympic U.S. Basketball team brought prestige and glory back to the infamously poor-spirited franchise of previous Olympic teams, I kind of though Kobe was a tool. What, with the whole Shaquille O’Neal in-fighting, the rape/adultery charge and just a general sense of over-inflated self, there wasn’t much to like about Kobe. That said, I think he has matured quite a bit, and has greatly improved his image — as well as — his wife’s jewelry collection.
Just sayin’ is all.

im a nelly fan but i disagree with him on this one. Kobe’s hyperdunks are pretty sick. i think they look a lot better than most jordans.

Dumbass blogger. Retarded, amateur journalist should never been given a blog to rant about unless shit. Get your shoe game straight you idiot. Nelly was talking about Kobe’s adidas sneaker line not the Nike.
