[Music] what everybody's Joe from conflicts were in New York City at Stadium Goods with Grammy award-winning Emmy award-winning comedic legend Chris Rock thank you thank you good to do some sneaker shopping today going to see what he's feeling what he's not and then I'll hope he's going to buy some sneakers I'm buying you'll pay it let's go Chris Dark Twisted Fantasy yeah stock plus a fantasy in my opinion the best album in the history of hip hop Wow really yeah you have a classic outro on the blame game I'm in the blame game I mean Kanye John Legend we have here his sneakers you're wearing this me I'm wearing this I wear all Kanye a power now admit what you know and other stuff don't fit me right but this sneaker you can't use you gotta have Jesus who are you what are you talking about if you don't have Yeezys you're friendly with him I'm very friendly on guessing he sends you I'm a big fan they sent some to my kids they didn't send me any really so come in but I'm not going to complain a rather my kids actually have it's very now I'm here today and I'm in the market for new Yeezys because I'm on tour and I like wearing them on stage you know they fit me feel good they look good if they send out a signal that yo I am today I feel it is going down and they look good with right black they look good with all-black would you have Yeezys on it just says yo but no stone has been unturned I'm really bout this right now I have Yeezys or absolutely and I don't care what you say would you wear them Omri or all for the zebras now but I but you know what I do plan to do today it's very important when you go to sneakers shopping especially if you get like multiple pairs you should always get at least one pair you wouldn't normally get absolutely some crazy purple pair something like the hell is that you always should always have like what the hell is that pair of sneakers in your closet couldn't agree more these I'm in the market for even though the kid won I know I know I'm I'm slight but uh I need a white pair too because the white they just came out it's summer New York you gotta have you wear these courts like to undo a couple pictures you and Amy Schumer you you like to flex when you're courtside acting like sometimes with me yeah yeah you gonna sit in a $2,000 seat you should have you know two thousand dollars sneakers you thousand dollars naked yeah it's Dez come on definitely come on what's better than a easy Chris you came up in Pete Jordan era yes I did I'm Nick fan and peek generis I'd watch my team get slaughtered by Michael Jordan several time he hosted SNL the 17th season the first episode yeah think you were writing you were snoring and writing I was on a show yeah do you remember that week and how he was any stories that you can remember he was the biggest star that had ever done the show it was like normally like we have famous people on every week the cast is this used to famous people it wasn't like nobody asked for autographs every anything you know everybody wanted to then they got to the point there to put a guard a policeman outside Michael Jordan's dressing room to put a cast that's crazy just for us I remember at one play it was me Farley Sandler and say we're gonna go to McDonald's cuz we used to go to the dolls like down in there in the subway okay and Jordan was about to come with us wow that was like it was like I think we got to the elevator it's somebody said something like a cake okay Wow amazing but it was cool we got to hang out with him like the whole week and everything and he was funny in his sketches but I felt sorry for him because it was like what like you never seen do don't you know I used to hang out with any Murphy you know I really like I've been around Michael Jackson yeah but this is different level it was kind of even different from Michael Jackson was like what the hell because he was at the height of his powers like it was like a hanging around Iron Man a song when the Jordan boom hit and he became this big star on the court could you see this off court thing happening in these becoming such an iconic molding I did remember thinking in my head like okay everybody likes what they like from a young age when they old so I did occur to me earlier I was like you know what I want to listen to rap music when I'm like 80 I didn't know that the sneakers would but it makes sense it's like look what I'm older now I'm sort of not likes me I like sneakers more than ever now mmm I love I love them not to the forum yeah before I got bottom not get any sneak out one I get three pair whatever it's like me I'm by other people sneakers I'd give them out like like skittles yeah yeah the Air Force one for you that's Jordan for you Chris 1991 your dough you comedy album foreign suspect yes you have an iconic fit on leather jacket ripped jeans and these great five yes yes yes that's the alphabet kids are wearing in summer 2017 so you were kind of ahead of your time back then yeah I mean that was what we were where it I mean I guess we've lived long enough for it to come back it is a big seal man is this might have been like a hundred bucks or something like back then back then that was like the big like really it was like the Kevin Garnett contract of sneakers right yes I remember when I was kid when I'd first time I told my parents I wanted some coolness and what that was like a discussion yeah I was like them in a living room like really $30 that was a real talk like is this child worth it yeah is this child going to amount to anything because I would hate to buy $30 Deacon's and he's working at IHOP right fortunately it worked out but these I wore of what he's on the album cover man and that was you know what was better than this this is like a status symbol the sneakers everything could work right now and even the title yeah Laurens us yes like whoa Trayvon Martin a born suspect you know I mean like all these other cats right now that you know have suffered this year in the last couple of years born suspect Chris you've talked about little penny a lot yeah the thing that I take away that's most impressive is that you basically ad-lib the commercials and Nike gave you the freedom to do that okay now if the commercials were written but yeah they let me like sprinkle some juice on it it was supposed to be one commercial and it became this big huge phenomenon and you said you were on the couch when you got was on the couch when I got the call I was off SNL nobody was calling me four movies you know I was doing stand-up on the weekends I wasn't like in the culture it kind of put me back in the game yeah Tyra Banks she was in it she actually did the oral history of little penny and Tyra Banks actually said she never got free shoes I believe that I don't think I ever got free shoes either not even free pennies it's been very stingy on the free shoes we talked about everything right now it's time to easy par for you you get your browse the shelves and pick out what you're feeling all right I would like the ten and a half easy black with the red and a ten and a half all-white music I'm going to get this weird purple cold I like oh no I get the yellow one of the purple and both like ridiculous okay so keep looking Jordans I got them all got gat gat gat gat gat gat trap trap trap trap trap I
