Musician Who Pursued Michael Jordan for a Year to Take Him Seriously, Flexed a $6.5 Million Worth Luxury Item at His Lavish Birthday Celebration

When you are aiming for greatness, you need to be confident and prepare yourself for the eventual blowup. Though the Kismet of an individual can change overnight, sometimes it might take some time too. This certainly holds true for the musician who tried his luck convincing the NBA great Michael Jordan, that he is in fact the real deal. Michael Jordan is the name and reason for the unmatched popularity of Jordan Shoes. The very shoes would go on to create a sneaker culture worldwide and become the reason for billions of dollars’ worth of industry.

The influence of the brand Jordan reached the Colombian Singer and Record Producer J Balvin in his early years. Balvin is admittedly a sneakerhead. He has shown his collection on social media and on public outings. Balvin also showed interest in having his own sneakers back in 2018. He then met Michael Jordan in 2019 and after a long conversation, the outcome was that J Balvin will have his own shoes with Jordan.
