Fat Joe, the veteran rap star, recently took to his Instagram to proudly display his latest acquisition – a pair of Donald Trump’s new gold high-top sneakers from the exclusive “Friends & Family” edition. Despite his ownership of these exclusive kicks, Fat Joe has made it clear that he has no intention of supporting Trump politically.

Fat Joe’s Sneakerhead Court

During his Instagram post, Fat Joe defended his ownership of Trump’s “Never Surrender” sneakers, emphasizing that he did not purchase them himself but found them to be a stylish addition to his collection. This move has raised eyebrows, especially after a Fox News host suggested that these sneakers could help Trump gain support from Black voters, a notion that Detroit rapper Peezy found appealing, but not Fat Joe.

Separating Style from Politics

Fat Joe drew a comparison between Trump and renowned artists Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol, stating that art collectors do not question the behavior of the artists they admire, but rather appreciate their work. This comparison inadvertently serves as high praise for Trump, despite Fat Joe’s clear stance against his political beliefs.

Staying True to His Values

It’s worth noting that Fat Joe has also stocked up on exclusive Yeezy sneakers when Kanye West faced controversy at the end of 2022. However, he remains steadfast in his disapproval of Trump and his political ideologies.
