Why Do Black Men Like Shoes So Much?

I stumbled upon this question today when I was using DuckDuckGo searching for,

“Why are black people fascinated by jeezy?”

I want to know that because I don’t understand what the hype is all about. Jeezy made songs about drugs, sex, and money. What’s so special about that? It’s not like he actually did something that made him rich and created jobs in the black community. Why do black people look up to rappers? What are rappers doing for you? Absolutely nothing. Jeezy is up there with his millions while black people down there listening to “Thug Motivation” tracks. It’s obvious Jeezy got rich off of making trap rap songs and nothing tangible. And this is cute?

I laughed when I came across the question in the search results because I have thought the same thing before,

“Why do black men like shoes?”

So why do black men like shoes so much?

• Because of Michael Jordan
• Ego
• Self-Esteem
• They want to feel good
• Basketball
• Shoe stores in the hood
• Nike marketing shoes with black athletes
• They think it’s cool
