Marcus Jordan, son of Michael Jordan and creator of the Trophy Room business, recently praised Chicago rap icon Kanye West on Instagram. West, who has been embroiled in several issues in recent years, was raised in Chicago after his parents’ separation. He and his mother relocated to China, where she was employed as an educator.

However, West, also known as Ye, went back to Chicago in the 1990s and enrolled in the American Academy of Art. He came back to the city at the same time as MJ and the Chicago Bulls, who achieved two three-peats during their remarkable success.

Due to his strong connections to Chicago, it is not unexpecteԀ that the renowned rapper chose Jordan Brand as one of his favorite brands throughout his formative years. During his speech at Milan Fashion Week, West mentioned the Jordan brand and Girbaud.

Marcus Jordan uploaded the video footage on his Instagram story after seeing it and reading West’s remarks. ‘Heir Jordan’ posted a Chicago flag along with the video and wrote:

Marcus Jordan’s relationship with the Jordan Brand and its association with Kanye West

Kanye West and Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan, have previously interacted on social media. Almost ten years ago, Kanye West mentioned Jordan Brand in a song by rapping:

“I’m not trying to show off, but the Yeezy shoes surpassed the Air Jordan shoes.”

West later clarified on Twitter that his comments were directed for former Nike CEO Mark Parker and not the Hall of Famer.

Years ago, after his separation from Adidas, Kanye West shared a picture of the Jordan brand Jumpman emblem on Instagram, catching the eye of Marcus Jordan.

‘Heir Jordan’ expressed his desire to arrange a meeting between West, his father, and DJ Khaled, with whom the rapper was collaborating on tracks. Nevertheless, the conference did not yield any results.

During the same period, West said on the Drink Champs podcast that Michael Jordan was still unwilling to meet with him due to the song.

Michael Jordan continues to refuse to meet with me. I am attempting to arrange a meeting with Michael Jordan. I consider it to be a song. Michael Jordan questioned why people were attributing his popularity to Virgil Abloh. These shoes are stylish.

It remаins to be seen whether the rap legend’s recent endorsement of the Jordan Brand will lead to the meeting with Michael Jordan that he desires. It seems that Marcus Jordan is prepared to arrange the meeting whenever his father is willing.
