Hip-hop reflects kindly on DJ Premier and Guru, Pete Rock and CL Smooth and the heyday of Snoop and Dre, but where will Mannie Fresh<\/strong> and Juvenile<\/strong> land in the record books? If you were old enough to watch Rap City<\/em> around the ’99 then there’s no doubt that the bounce sound brought out of New Orleans had you coughing up your cash at Sam Goody or tying up your landline hovered over Napster.<\/p>\n While everybody remembers the impact of “Back That Azz Up” or even the dance from “Get Your Roll On,” what even the hippest of Hot Boy$ fans may have forgot are the kicks from the “I Got That Fire” video. A Cash Money makeup for Juvie and the clique long before Drake donned his own Jordans or Kanye laced up Air Yeezys, these Solja Rag inspired Reebok Workouts were a grassroots gift from the brand to the stars and city that wore and repped Rees as proudly and organically as it gets.<\/p>\n Rehashed and revamped by Reebok Classic, Sneaker Politics and Humidity for All-Star Weekend and brought back out this past weekend, a new take on the Hot Boy hit is now available for all. A small group of media caught up with Juvenile and Mannie Fresh to hear about their respective kick collections, their Cash Money come-up and if either of them still have the OGs in storage.<\/p>\n Ian Stonebrook for Snkrs Day: Whether it was in New Orleans as a whole or in the Magnolia Projects specifically, what made the Reebok Workout such a staple coming up?<\/strong><\/p>\n Mannie Fresh:<\/strong> I’m not from the Magnolia, I’m from downtown, but Juvie and them are from the Magnolia. That was the budget and when you’re young you’ve got a budget. Reeboks worked for the budget and everything that was us. It worked in the hood, you heard me?<\/p>\n
