Bun B x Greedy Genius
 Bun B of UGK earned his crown in the Southern hip hop game, but his love and respect for the underground stretches far beyond music. Bun has taken part in local events for underground film and art, but recently has also shown a lot of love to the underground brands of streetwear and sneakers. He has performed live at Alife, given shouts to The Hundreds and Grey One in his lyrics, and now he has worked with Greedy Genius on a sneaker collaboration.
From this sneak peak your eyes have probably locked on to the black and gun metal patent leather on the classic Cool Breeze silhouette. We were given this exclusive shot to share with all of you, but more photos and info will be posted shortly about this collaborative project. Also, keep your eyes out for some more collaborations that Bun B has been working on with streetwear greats listed prior. |

Greedy Genius Lumberjack Pack
| Times sure are changing. Bape is ditching patent leather, streetwear is ditching all over prints, and Greedy Genius is pumping out kicks with only two colors.
This month, Greedy Genius is releasing a new set, the “Lumberjack Pack”, that feature four sneakers dressed in plaid and flannel. Though they went with a more familiar red and black for the Primo (right), each of the other kicks have their own color pallet. Photos of the Phantoms and dressier Cool Breezes after the jump. |

Greedy Genius T-Shirt Curse?
The saying goes “there’s no such thing as bad publicity” however unfortunately the bad luck has recently fallen on TI and Trey Songz. TI was arrested last month on weapons charges and less than one month later Trey Songz and members of his entourage were arrested after a show. The connection, a black and grey Greedy Genius T-shirt.
The photo to the left was taken at a show just before TI’s booking while Trey Songz was booked while still wearing his. Possibly a curse, who knows, but I am sure that Pimp C will be leaving his Greedy Genius shirts in the closet for a little while. Rest in Peace Pimp. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your friends and family.
