Marshall gifted Fat Joe a pair of exclusive custom made Air Jordan 3s he premiered at Dr. Dre’s Super Bowl Halftime Show this February.
Eminem teased his new collaboration with Jordan on the eve of the show, and then hit the white stage, performing side by side with the Good Doctor.
In October Fat Joe hosted the BET Hip Hop Awards ceremony wearing these exact kicks. It was unclear how he got his hands on this unique collab, but Fat Joe certainly knew the importance of the pair he was sporting.
Now, in the interview for the CBS Mornings show, the truth was revealed. Marshall sent the pair to the legendary rapper. Fat Joe showed his praised possession to a reporter and shouted out to Em:
It was Eminem’s birthday a couple of days ago. He’s one of my best friends for 30 years. And so, he wore these in the Super Bowl. And the only person who got the second pair is Fat Joe. I love you, Eminem. Happy birthday! Thank you for the gift.
The interaction was cut short as the reporter got too agitated by the proximity to this work of art piece of wear. All in good humour, of course.
