Being part of a rap crew is more than just spitting bars—in today’s hip-hop game your image has to be just strong as your skills on the mic. That’s why it was a no-brainer putting G.O.O.D Music on the cover of our August/September issue. Besides dropping tracks that jump directly to the number-one spot and making films, the crew is known for rocking the dopest rotation of kicks. It doesn’t hurt when your de facto boss has his own signature shoes with Louis Vuitton and Nike. Check our gallery of The 50 Greatest G.O.O.D Music Footwear Moments and let us know which artist came the hardest.
