Lil Nas X and Tony Hawk Patch Up After “Rift” Over Blood Skateboards

Last week saw Instagram pages flooded with ‘Nah he tweakin’ comments on almost every post. Lil Nas X got criticized for using blood in his line of shoes. However, when legendary skater Tony Hawk did the same on his skateboard, people didn’t take notice and Nas was disappointed with the disparity in the reactions. There were shades of hypocrisy according to him but rumors of a potential rift subsided after these two legends met for a special TikTok video. There were suggestions of double standards being produced between Nas’s Satan Shoes and Hawk’s skateboards.

However, both of them laid those rumors to rest.

The brief history

It all started when Lil Nas X released shoes with human blood infused in the sole. However, people were not happy and criticized the artist for his decision. But later on, Tony Hawk partnered with Liquid Death to create something special. The brand collected blood from Hawk and mixed it with some red paint for displaying it on the skateboard. As Hawk received good reviews for this move, Nas X was disappointed and spoke about what he felt about the situation.

“Now that tony hawk has released skateboards with his blood painted on them, and there was no public outrage, are y’all ready to admit y’all were never actually upset over the blood in the shoes?”

“And maybe u were mad for some other reason?” said Nas. His anger at the hypocrisy of the situation was understandable.
