Speaker 1: What's going on? Guys, Welcome to another episode of Legit Check.
Speaker 1: I'm your host, Easy Bust. I appreciate you guys for
Speaker 1: listening in on today's episode. Now, today's episodes a litt
Speaker 1: bit different than what we normally do. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a solo episode, me being Easy Busted obviously UM calling
Speaker 1: out you know, celebrities and high profile figures wearing fake stuff. Today,
Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about some of the most iconic
Speaker 1: bus if you will. I'm sure you guys have probably
Speaker 1: seen most of the ones that I've done in the past,
Speaker 1: but a lot of people don't know that there's actually
Speaker 1: like a lot more that never made it to my
Speaker 1: page or I had to delete at one point because
Speaker 1: there was a lot of ramifications that came from it.
Speaker 1: But let's start from the beginning, way back when when
Speaker 1: I first started. One of the biggest celebrities that I
Speaker 1: called out, I think he was actually the first one
Speaker 1: was Testo, the DJ, And the crazy thing is is,
Speaker 1: um he had a fake pair of turtle doves, so
Speaker 1: he had a real pair of pirate blacks, and then
Speaker 1: he had a white pair of three fifties, which I
Speaker 1: guess we're samples, but they could be fake. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but I the only shoe that I could speak for
Speaker 1: was the Turtle Doves because they definitely were fake, and
Speaker 1: we actually spoke over d M and figured out that
Speaker 1: they were fake. So that was like one of the
Speaker 1: first bus which was crazy, the only real shoe he had,
Speaker 1: because basically it was like a picture of him with
Speaker 1: three sneakers, um the Pirate Blacks, the all white through fifty,
Speaker 1: and the Turtle Doves. So the Pirate Blacks were real.
Speaker 1: Even told him that, and he's like, yeah, like the
Speaker 1: Kardashians gave me these, like whatever, whatever. Obviously those are
Speaker 1: gonna be real, but the other two were a little
Speaker 1: bit questionable. So I posed to the bus. Obviously, people
Speaker 1: were going crazy because it was like one of the
Speaker 1: first celebrities that I ever had called out, and crazy enough,
Speaker 1: he actually DM me, which was insane. I definitely was
Speaker 1: very shocked, but he was a really nice guy. He
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, man, what's up, Like I got these
Speaker 1: from Dada Da Dada Da da da Da. Man talked
Speaker 1: for a little bit and it was really cool, and
Speaker 1: I was like, holy sh it. I was like, this
Speaker 1: is like one of the world's biggest DJs. Especially at
Speaker 1: the time he was like probably, if not the world's
Speaker 1: biggest DJ. So it was like unreal to have him
Speaker 1: my DM me and you know, it was like one
Speaker 1: of the first celebrities that I ever had spoken to
Speaker 1: on Instagram, So it was like, you know, it was
Speaker 1: a little bit nervous responding and stuff like that, but
Speaker 1: it was cool to talk to him. And now he
Speaker 1: has one artist working under him. I'm pretty sure Jeco.
Speaker 1: He had some really cool music. He did a remix
Speaker 1: to my boy prem song called Jackie Chan that I love.
Speaker 1: It was like him prim post Malone and that TSA.
Speaker 1: They all did a remix. It was really really cool.
Speaker 1: He's a sneaker head to he follows me, and it'd
Speaker 1: be it'd be funny to have him on the show.
Speaker 1: If you're listening to this bro, come on the show.
Speaker 1: We can talk about sneakers and maybe that whole scenario
Speaker 1: with t S that would be pretty funny. But anyway,
Speaker 1: so like after that, like I think the next few
Speaker 1: were like zac Efron, which was crazy. Um he had
Speaker 1: blue three fifties red ones um like super fake turtle
Speaker 1: doves and that that really blew my mind. Because Zack
Speaker 1: Everyone's obviously a huge actor. He definitely only has more
Speaker 1: than enough money to be able to afford the Real
Speaker 1: Deal or like ten of the Real Deal times a
Speaker 1: hundred or whatever. So that was really really interesting. He
Speaker 1: actually never reached out to me. Most celebrities do. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna lie, like it's like, I would say nine
Speaker 1: out of ten times, like they would reach out or
Speaker 1: someone from their management or someone from their team at
Speaker 1: that time in particular. Yeah, Zack Efron never reached out,
Speaker 1: so that that was kind of like the end of
Speaker 1: that story, but it was. It was funny. I still
Speaker 1: remember to this day, like seeing the picture of him
Speaker 1: wearing them on like the hood of a car. It
Speaker 1: was like a pair of like red three fifties, and
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, like I don't know who gave
Speaker 1: him those, but yikes, you know. And then another one
Speaker 1: was the Jackie Chan. Like on the topic of actors,
Speaker 1: I saw Jackie Chan wearing a pair of super fake
Speaker 1: turtle doves, and I guess I think he was holding
Speaker 1: like an orangutan or something in his hands, and and
Speaker 1: I guess the guy who's next to him was I
Speaker 1: can't confirm this, but I guess it was money Kicks
Speaker 1: brother Rock rush It and somebody told me that I'm
Speaker 1: not sure. I haven't actually hung out with the rush
Speaker 1: It yet. Um, but anyway, like that, that was crazy
Speaker 1: And just to see um Jackie Chandon wearing fakes, I
Speaker 1: was like, what, like, obviously, Jackie Chan's a legendary actor,
Speaker 1: legendary more than enough money to for like a hundred
Speaker 1: thousand pairs of them. It just yeah, that was that
Speaker 1: was really interesting because I was just I was so confused.
Speaker 1: I was like, what why is Jackie chand wearing Yeezys
Speaker 1: first of all? And second of all, why are they fake?
Speaker 1: You know? So that was a that was a that
Speaker 1: was a good one. I think the next biggest celebrity
Speaker 1: was probably like, um, Swaylie Swaylie from Ray SCHRUMMERD And uh,
Speaker 1: that's actually a really funny story. That's something I touched on.
Speaker 1: Um when I had Mickey on the show Mickey from
Speaker 1: the Magpark, he had a fake pair of moon Rocks
Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure it was um fake pair of
Speaker 1: Pirate blacks too. And only recently that I find out
Speaker 1: that those fake pairs actually came from his stylists, So
Speaker 1: his style I list Scott scammed and gave it to
Speaker 1: him and he, annoying me wore them, and it was funny.
Speaker 1: When I exposed him, he was He's another guy who
Speaker 1: actually did reach out and he was just like like, ah, bro,
Speaker 1: you don't have any followers, Like why are you trying
Speaker 1: to expose me? I have all the easies blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: They're all real, Like who are you to tell me
Speaker 1: these are fake? And I was just trying to be
Speaker 1: cool with them and just be like, yo, bro, like
Speaker 1: with all due respect, man, these are fake, like you know,
Speaker 1: and he blocked me, so that was great. And then
Speaker 1: the next day he went to the magpark and he
Speaker 1: bought some real ones. So funny how that works. I mean,
Speaker 1: I was happy that he ended up getting real stuff.
Speaker 1: I was happy that, you know, Mickey was able to
Speaker 1: sell him some some shoes and you know, it was
Speaker 1: it was, it was good. And ever since then, I
Speaker 1: haven't seen Swillie rocking anything fake. I actually know some
Speaker 1: people like on his management team and stuff, and like, um,
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna plan like a surprise video for him,
Speaker 1: which would be funny where I bring him like a
Speaker 1: real pair of easies or something I don't know. I
Speaker 1: haven't really decided yet. It was funny. I actually met
Speaker 1: Swilli at Astro World Fest a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Super cool guy, super super cool. I actually didn't tell
Speaker 1: them I was easy busted, which is funny. And then
Speaker 1: there's a lot of like YouTubers and influencers quote unquote
Speaker 1: that we're wearing like super super fake stuff, super fake
Speaker 1: easies at the time, So there were a whole lot
Speaker 1: of like influencers like Instagram, vine stars and stuff like
Speaker 1: that who had fake easies. That that was like always
Speaker 1: the bread and butter like, so many of them had fakes.
Speaker 1: Like it was almost like crazy to see one of
Speaker 1: like one of the vine stars on their Instagram models
Speaker 1: or whatever to be wearing something real. One of them, Um,
Speaker 1: that was actually crazy was a summer ray. I know
Speaker 1: a lot of you guys listening to this, all the
Speaker 1: men listening to this probably follow her. And it's okay.
Speaker 1: She was wearing a pair of fake Oxford tans. I
Speaker 1: want to say. It was a while ago, and she
Speaker 1: didn't know that they were fake, and she actually promoted
Speaker 1: the company who had sent them to her. It wasn't
Speaker 1: a company. It was like a quote unquote reseller selling
Speaker 1: fake stuff, but they weren't open about it. They were
Speaker 1: saying like, oh these are these are real authentic blahlah blah.
Speaker 1: And I knew that they were fake. I could tell.
Speaker 1: So that actually blew my mind that she got got
Speaker 1: and she promoted a reseller who sells faked up but
Speaker 1: she didn't know obviously. I wish he had hit me
Speaker 1: up before. I only met her recently. I met her
Speaker 1: like a two years ago or something, so like this
Speaker 1: was a while ago. This was probably three or four
Speaker 1: years ago. The guy who ran that page absolutely like
Speaker 1: went crazy, Like I said, he was gonna assuming all
Speaker 1: this stuff. I'm like, bro, you're selling counterfeit products. You're
Speaker 1: in the wrong. I'm not really like it bummed me
Speaker 1: out because I bet like a lot of her fans
Speaker 1: would go, wow, like I can get easies from from
Speaker 1: this reseller for cheap, because like he was selling them
Speaker 1: like under the market value. And I just wonder how
Speaker 1: many people actually ended up buying stuff, Like I really
Speaker 1: hope that people saw my post and refrain from buying them,
Speaker 1: because yeah, that was that was really bad. There's so
Speaker 1: many others I can't remember their names or the exact scenarios, obviously,
Speaker 1: going into kind like a little bit more recent like
Speaker 1: a few years ago. A Soldier Boy was one of
Speaker 1: the first guys that really you know, took the um
Speaker 1: Fugazy Where of the Year award every year for the
Speaker 1: last six years. And I've had many different experiences with
Speaker 1: that guy. He hates me and like he's been on
Speaker 1: interviews where he's like fuck easy, busta and like all
Speaker 1: this stuff. He actually hit me up. He said he's
Speaker 1: gonna pull up on me with the Draco um, which
Speaker 1: I thought was probably life threatening, but at the same time,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, it's Soldier Boy. It's fine.
Speaker 1: It's actually funny, you know. Him and I got in
Speaker 1: a couple of tips a few times. It's crazy. I
Speaker 1: specifically remember this to this day. I was in my
Speaker 1: bed about to go sleep, like in my dorm when
Speaker 1: I was in college, and somebody had damn me and
Speaker 1: was like, yo, Soldier Boy was like talking smack about
Speaker 1: you on World Star and I was like what and
Speaker 1: legit I saw that, like I saw the video. It's funny.
Speaker 1: It's like an infamous and I laughed for like twenty minutes,
Speaker 1: and I was actually stoked. I was like, wow, that's crazy,
Speaker 1: Like what like normally you think that, like your favorite
Speaker 1: celebrities saying like fuck you, you'd be like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe I should step off, but but no,
Speaker 1: I thought it was hilarious. And then ever since then,
Speaker 1: you know, I've been trolling him, like I mean, he
Speaker 1: definitely is one that should be trolled. And it's funny because, um,
Speaker 1: my photographer or I mean he's he's my friend. He
Speaker 1: wouldn't say say he's necessarily my photographer, but he takes
Speaker 1: a lot of photos of me. He is a photographer.
Speaker 1: He's actually Roddy Rich's personal photographer now and like, shout
Speaker 1: out Chris, if you're listening to this, bro. Chris was
Speaker 1: walking down Rodeo and took took a couple of photos
Speaker 1: of him. He was wearing a fake Rolex and it's
Speaker 1: funny because the soldier boy ended up actually following him
Speaker 1: and I think he used one of Chris's photos as
Speaker 1: like an album cover or like a single cover or something,
Speaker 1: which was hilarious. And Chris sent me photos of his roles.
Speaker 1: He goes, oh, dude, I got like up close photos
Speaker 1: of his roles. If you want to see it, and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, So I I saw
Speaker 1: it and for sure fake and um he went on
Speaker 1: every day Struggle or whatever the academics has and he
Speaker 1: was like trying to like show it off and like
Speaker 1: it the same watch it was super fake too. So
Speaker 1: I mean, that guy is just a whole different story.
Speaker 1: I mean one of one of my favorite ones. Um
Speaker 1: that you know, a lot of people always ask about
Speaker 1: as Rich as the kid Rich, a kid you know
Speaker 1: has blown up a lot in the past couple of years.
Speaker 1: And it was funny. After all this happened like years
Speaker 1: later to this present day. I was with Offset from
Speaker 1: from the Megs and he was shopping around at probably place.
Speaker 1: When I was there, I was helping him kind of
Speaker 1: like look around and stuff, and he he somehow brought
Speaker 1: up Rich the kid. I can't remember how. And then
Speaker 1: I was like, dude, do I have a story for you?
Speaker 1: So I kind of like told him about like an
Speaker 1: instance that we had at like a little incident that
Speaker 1: Dre had with him at the warehouse and then in
Speaker 1: a little incident that he had with me where he
Speaker 1: said he wanted to pull up on me and he
Speaker 1: wanted to like he he told me he's gonna beat
Speaker 1: me up if I ever like ran into Himich is
Speaker 1: funny because I've run into him a few times and
Speaker 1: I still haven't gotten beat up. But OFFSET was like, dude,
Speaker 1: this is crazy. So I didn't know. But him and
Speaker 1: Kid are good friends, and rich Kid eventually ended up apologizing,
Speaker 1: so you know we're good now. I actually haven't like
Speaker 1: formerly met him, but I just thought that was hilarious
Speaker 1: that that's always an interesting story because like, the first
Speaker 1: time I called him out was not because he was
Speaker 1: wearing fakes, like even though I didn't even know he
Speaker 1: had fakes, but he scammed one of my friends. So
Speaker 1: I started creeping his page and I found him wearing fakes,
Speaker 1: and that's when I called him out. He hated me,
Speaker 1: like he every time um, like I'd post on my
Speaker 1: story that I'm somewhere and he feels there, he'd be
Speaker 1: like yo, like he's like pull up here right now,
Speaker 1: like um, and he started saying like all this like
Speaker 1: super like crazy stuff on my Instagram. The craziest part
Speaker 1: is after I started exposing him, he turned off all
Speaker 1: his comments on all his photos because you guys were
Speaker 1: going crazy just like spamming him with LS going nuts.
Speaker 1: So he turned off all his comments and then a
Speaker 1: day later he made his page go private completely because
Speaker 1: it was just ruthless. You guys are crazy. I love
Speaker 1: you guys, by the way, and then he deleted all
Speaker 1: his posts like three days later, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: to this day he probably still feel some type of
Speaker 1: way towards me. But you know, it's funny, like that
Speaker 1: was always like when that a lot of people ask about,
Speaker 1: but there's so many other countless people who who have
Speaker 1: worn fakes. Just to kind of like tell you guys, like,
Speaker 1: obviously anybody can get scammed. It's not just you. It's
Speaker 1: not your mom, it's not your dad, it's not your friends,
Speaker 1: it's like anybody, celebrities. It doesn't matter. So that's why
Speaker 1: I'm always so persistent to tell you guys, like, get
Speaker 1: everything legit checked, no matter what, get a few people
Speaker 1: to look at it, get a few expert opinions, because
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you never know a
Speaker 1: hundred percent until you've gotten enough feedback and done your research.
Speaker 1: So I mean, if it could happen in celebrities, it
Speaker 1: can happen to you too. Recently, I would just had
Speaker 1: a sneaker con and um, one kid bought something that
Speaker 1: turned out to be fake. It was like a whole
Speaker 1: fiasco to get the money back, and like, you know,
Speaker 1: I made a video about it, and in the video,
Speaker 1: I was talking about how important it is to get
Speaker 1: your legit checked. It doesn't have to be me or
Speaker 1: anyone in particular, but but just to get enough ice
Speaker 1: look at it because most likely, like if more than
Speaker 1: a couple of people are calling it fake, it's probably
Speaker 1: a good idea to get it checked out entirely because
Speaker 1: most people who have an eye for it will know
Speaker 1: right away or because of like certain key details. And
Speaker 1: it's just so sad to me when people get when
Speaker 1: people get scammed, it's it's really like unfortunate, And like
Speaker 1: I don't understand how some people can sleep at night
Speaker 1: knowing that they sold something fake to someone for a
Speaker 1: real price. Like if somebody bought something for a hundred
Speaker 1: dollars as fake, and then they resold it for seven
Speaker 1: hundred to eight hundred dollars or a thousand or whatever
Speaker 1: it might be, so that person ended up paying seven
Speaker 1: hundred or eight hundred dollars over retail for something or
Speaker 1: not even over retail, over how much the fake costs,
Speaker 1: Like it's ridiculous, and it makes me even more sad
Speaker 1: because there's so many people who get scammed and they
Speaker 1: don't even know it until way later. Like I I
Speaker 1: know a bunch of people who this has happened to
Speaker 1: where they'll buy a shoe online and they just assumed
Speaker 1: that it's real and then they wear it, and then
Speaker 1: they're wearing it for like a year straight, and then
Speaker 1: somebody finally tells them like yo, dude, by the way,
Speaker 1: like those shoes are fake or whatever. They got sneaker
Speaker 1: cons um I've had so many times said kids come
Speaker 1: up to me like Yo, are these real? And I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: those are fake and they're like what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: I bought these from this Instagram person or whatever like
Speaker 1: six months ago. I've been wearing them, blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: Like how do I get my money back? And it's
Speaker 1: like there's there's like this gray area where it's so
Speaker 1: difficult because at one point, like if you wear the shoe,
Speaker 1: you know, you can't really have like a claim on
Speaker 1: PayPal because the papal will be like, oh, well, we
Speaker 1: just wore them, so you how how do you know
Speaker 1: that they're fake now because you know they got like
Speaker 1: the bottom got rubbed off like whatever it might be.
Speaker 1: You know, so just like really important and that you guys,
Speaker 1: get your stuff legit checked before you buy it, not after,
Speaker 1: or even if you're just considering buying something. Make sure
Speaker 1: you're getting it from a legitimate source. Don't believe these
Speaker 1: scams that are like too good to be true, like
Speaker 1: selling easies for half resale or at retail like it
Speaker 1: or not even just easy like off whites um Jordan's.
Speaker 1: And in my opinion, I think it's so much better
Speaker 1: and so much more gratifying to buy a real pair
Speaker 1: of sneakers because if you buy a fake pair, you
Speaker 1: in your head will know that they're fake, and subconsciously
Speaker 1: it's just not healthy to to just go for something
Speaker 1: even if even if everybody else thinks they're real and
Speaker 1: you know that they're fake in your head, like you're
Speaker 1: still thinking like, oh no, I'm wearing something that's fake.
Speaker 1: I'm like, am I a fake person? Like? Am I
Speaker 1: trying to emulate something that I'm not? It's so much
Speaker 1: better to like really put the work in, like like
Speaker 1: I'm not just gonna use myself as an example, but
Speaker 1: like there are temptations like oh yeah, let me just
Speaker 1: get a fake when it looks the same, like whatever, No,
Speaker 1: it's not. It's so much more gratifying. Like when I
Speaker 1: when I have my job at Starbucks for two years,
Speaker 1: like I really really worked. I bought off, Like I
Speaker 1: know how hard it is to make ten dollars an hour.
Speaker 1: Like I I worked the opening shift from four am
Speaker 1: to nine am every day and it was grueling. And
Speaker 1: but when I finally got that pair of Yeezys and
Speaker 1: I was like, I got a real pair and I
Speaker 1: paid a lot for them. Obviously, I was so happy
Speaker 1: because I was like, damn, like I deserve this shoe.
Speaker 1: I worked really hard for it. And you know, with
Speaker 1: many things in life, if you work hard, you play hard.
Speaker 1: You know, if you work hard, you you deserve all
Speaker 1: the things that you want and you but you know,
Speaker 1: obviously make sure that you're not frivously spending your money
Speaker 1: on random stuff like you know, I'm and trust me,
Speaker 1: I'm very tempted to myself just kind of like being
Speaker 1: in this whole world like with like sneakers and jewelry
Speaker 1: and like clothing and stuff like that. But at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, guys, to make sure you're just
Speaker 1: you know, staying on top of it, investing your money,
Speaker 1: investing in yourself and working hard because you can never
Speaker 1: lose by doing that, and always invest in yourself. You're
Speaker 1: the only thing that you need to invest in first
Speaker 1: before anything else. So with all that said, guys, I know,
Speaker 1: I kind of like went on a tangent, but make
Speaker 1: sure you guys don't get scamed. Make sure you guys
Speaker 1: don't get got um. Always get yourself legit checked, work
Speaker 1: hard so you can play hard get whatever you want.
Speaker 1: You know, it's so much more gratifying to buy something
Speaker 1: knowing that it's authentic that you worked hard for. So
Speaker 1: just with all that said, I'm gonna catch you guys
Speaker 1: next time. I'm gonna see you guys next Wednesday. Appreciate
Speaker 1: you guys, and uh yeah piece
