These Niggas Hating.Com



Spotted this at NahRight but it came directly from the XXL site. Really actually irrelevant but I remember when I first bought this magazine. I was going crazy over the Louie shades Ross had on. I knew they were probably about six or seven hundred dollars so I figured I would stick to my less expensive Gucci, Polo, & Burberry's. Lol. Nonetheless, here goes them hating on the big homie Rawse. Again.

The XXL Editors received this letter from Louis Vuitton concerning the May 2009 cover of Rick Ross.

Dear Editor:
We were dismayed to see the cover of the May 2009 issue of XXL Magazine, which features a photo of Rick Ross wearing a pair of sunglasses prominently featuring counterfeit Louis Vuitton trademarks. Because the photo has generated considerable confusion among your readers and Louis Vuitton customers among others, we feel it is important to clarify several points.

The first is that the sunglasses Mr. Ross is wearing were not made by Louis Vuitton, and in fact, are counterfeit. Louis Vuitton did not grant permission to Mr. Ross or to whoever did make the sunglasses to use our trademarks. The second is that no affiliation, sponsorship or association exists between Rick Ross or XXL and Louis Vuitton. The third is that counterfeiting is illegal.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to correct the confusion.

Sincerely,
Michael D. Pantalony, Esq.
Louis Vuitton Malletier

*UPDATE:
Rick Ross says that the glasses he wore on the cover were customized with solid gold accents by Jacob Bernstein, also known as "The Sunglasses Pimp."

    "It’s the same thing as buying a Rolls Royce and having it tricked out; just because the product has been customized by me doesn’t take away from the fact that the frames are authentic Louis Vuitton Millionaires," Bernstein says, who has customized glasses for Jay-Z, Kanye West, Beyonce, Fergie and even Brad Pitt.

So, since when did customizing something become whack? I thought that was the thing to do, be exclusive, be unique. Like why would any rapper, especially of his caliber, knowingly purchase anything fugazi? Makes no sense. Perfect example of the excessive hate surrounding Ross. I fux with him. No rainbow. & on top of all that, who cares?!? The shades are still thee craziest!
