Who Says We Ain't Swaggin'

by Sam Pattillo

I was recently visiting lounge city when Purple City’s “Head Bust Open” was cued into my iTunes playlist. It’s a song that begins with some verbiage from the illustrious A-Mafia describing how he’s very tired of people thinking he’s not making considerable sums of money.

There is such a distinct tone to his voice. I can tell that people even merely thinking A-Mafia is not getting money is completely unacceptable to him.

It is that attitude I can relate to when it comes to shoe wear. That is why I like the Chizzle Hi’s. They have that Stan Smith design that’s like “Yes, I know about two-time Grand Slam singles champions” while maintaing a modern aesthetic that says “I’m definitely alternative and can reference lyrics from Dipset-affiliate rap groups.”

I may not be able to be as declarative with my verbiage like A-Mafia, but when I hit the scene in my Chizzle Hi’s I feel confident declaring “who says we ain’t swaggin’/who says we ain’t scoring…”. Act accordingly….

The Chizzle Hi is out now, exclusively at DTLR, City Gear, Shoe City and Villa. Go get some.
