Great hustle and exactly what every other starting clothing brand dreams of pulling off
And for those of you saying that Virgil was a “scammer”, there is a kernel of truth to what you are saying. Even since college Virgil would always say “why would I sell a t-shirt for $50 when someone will easily pay $500 for it”.
He was a first generation American. His parents immigrated from Ghana and he wanted to build generational wealth for his family. He had the hustler mentality from the start. If he could get rich from his art he was going to take advantage of that opportunity. I think all of us would have done the same thing.
Can’t even get mad at stuff that are overpriced
The only reason it exists is because someone is willing to pay that much
He just took advantage of the capitalist market
Keef and Frank who never speak on losses and have both lost people close to them recently spoke on Virgil
What did Keef say
I wish Lewy BTM or Jim Joe would spill what he used to write back in the day.... he clearly has training ✍️ ✨ ™️

but his best friend committed suicide a few months ago, plus king von and he didn’t say anything hes not much of a speaker on s*** like that so that post was just powerful to me
I never owned his clothes and wasn’t a huge follower of his work, and I’ll let people who know more decide what they think about his legacy, but this is how I see it. It’s tragic to see a young black man at the top of his game pass on.
Regardless of how you felt about his work, his vision made an impact that shifted the Fashion, Music, and Art world. I’m sure other industries too.
On top of that he gave a blueprint to kids to have a creative outlet, get some money, learn business skills, and work alongside others to build something.
That will echo be felt for a very long time.
Peace to his soul, family, and loved ones.
When i get hyped to music one of my favorite things to do is imagine I’m a dj and when the beat drops i toss my headset ar my laptop
Then i just remembered that i got that from a move virgil does in the “birds eye view” set when I first watched it a few years back and im sad again
What a legend for the culture man
I’m still thinking about how he had angiosarcoma
his heart was turning black n s*** I can’t believe it
All hallows eve (the orange one)
Such a great pair… so mad I never pulled the trigger on those and the 4s…I’ll get them eventually
All hallows eve (the orange one)

Is it true he was going to be a defendant in the Ghislaine Maxwell case?
Nah it was one of those cases where random famous people are sued out of nowhere to get a quick check

you know in islam they say when someone sins a black spot appears on his heart, and if they keep sinning the spots multiply until their entire heart turns black. but virgil was such a pure person, treated everyone with so much kindness, always promoted a positive message, put on for his race, never did d****, inspired endless lives. i mean we’re all seeing the response from everyone who knew him, nobody has a bad thing to say about him

yeah ofc it’s not a scientific or medical thing, just crossed my mind when thinking about how he died

Your wrong bruh. You think they just allowed a Black nxgga to run Louis Vuitton and didn't have him at their special party's. You think it's coincidence that 2weeks after kanye begging for "them" to kill him, Virgil mysteriously dies from cancer
