Looking back, I first heard about Drake and his soon to drop classic from a Ben Baller video on Niketalk.
Shortly after watching that video, nike shox gravity cheap drops and I’m sitting in my 11th-grade Spanish class losing my mind.
“Successful” would become the theme song for my junior summer while nobody could have predicted the impact Drizzy Drake Rodgers would have not only on music but the world as a whole.
While he may not be as influential as Kanye or Pharrell in the footwear and fashion worlds, Drake held it down for the casual sneakerhead and low-key hypebeast while still displaying his own unique sense of style rooted in the cold Canada winters.
While goose down jackets and Red Wing Boots would be his come-up calling card, I still remember watching early performances of Drizzy performing live with the “Aqua” Jordan 8s on.

Five years later, Drake would ink a Jordan Brand endorsement including multiple collaborations that he would rock on stage during sold out stadium tours while amassing billions of streams and millions of memes.

In face, you can still look up old videos of Drake freestyling over “Say You Will” live with autotune, spouting the line “I got my Yeezys on so I gotta get my Yeezy on!”
Air Jordan 3 “Do The Right Thing”
In fashion and music we often find inspiration in everyday people, places and moments. Drake even said it best on “Finesse,” stating “Fashion week is more your thing than mine.”
