North Philadelphia born and raised, Earl “The Pearl” Monroe was affectionately called ‘Jesus’ on the playground. Re-appropriated as ‘Black Jesus’ during his days with the Knicks, eloquently illustrated by Denzel Washington in the He Got Game clip below, a new clothing collection from UNDRCRWN pays tribute to both Monroe and Mr. West. The UNDRCRWN “Red October” Collection pairs The Pearl and Kanye’s Christ inspired nicknames with a sneaker centric colorway. Look for this “Red October” hoody to launch online at UNDRCRWN tomorrow at 8 AM EDT.
