Yikes! The pressure to be cool out here in these streets is real.
Maybe Riky Rick will help a young brother out and get him sneakers that are legit?
And he sure did do that.
Riky Rick then bought the young man some new Vans sneakers to wear.
My older brothers and OGs always used to and still gwaza us like that. If he was embarrased would he be posing with the vans I bought him. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/cQmZPqowTZ

The rapper recently ran a competition where he was giving away two pairs of Gucci sneakers to his followers all in the name of doing a good deed.
Several social media users have reprimanded Riky Ricky for his actions.
What are your thoughts?
