Hussle would also like everyone to know that legal action was not an idle threat, expounding on his qualms with Reebok and their use of his name to profit off Crip iconography.

Reebok are yet to respond, and so far the sneakers are still set to release on February 17. We’ll let you know after the weekend how it all plays out.
