So, when you’re copping sneakers, there are a few things that can help you get your groove on:

– Some proxies
– A sneaker server
– And, a fire playlist!

Also, after you’ve compiled the perfect sneaker copping playlist, you still need a solid copping strategy. Don’t let something ruin the entire vibe and end up with an L! Or else, you’re going to be listening to the forever-alone playlist for sneaker-copping losers.

Honorable Mention
Finally, we have one last honorable mention. This one here is not the typical song about sneakers, but we still gotta mention it! It’s Cardi B’s song “I Like It” where she says:
“Now I like dollars, I like diamonds, I like stunting, I like shining
I like million-dollar deals, where’s my pen, bitch I’m signin’ (Signin’)
I like those Balenciagas (Those), the ones that look like socks”
Yeah, so do we Cardi… so do we.
