There was a method to the "Mooo!" #DojaCat's 2018 ode to cows may be what catapulted her viral ascension, but she, and her lauded LP, #HotPink, are evidence that she's anything but a meme.

Don C, Wale and NBA icon Allen Iverson chat about the history of sneakers in hip-hop. They discuss Kanye's first deal with Nike, Run DMC and their adidas and Allen Iverson discusses his history with Reebok.
