He made his mark regardless

Rip Virgil
Ever since I heard about the Off-White Nike Collab I’ve been a fan of his
I remember I attended his Figures of Speech exhibit in Atlanta and I was just amazed by how he thought and how he mixed his architecture knowledge with high fashion and streetwear.
Rip Virgil Abloh 🕊

Nah bruh i remember when ppl were clowning him for donating 50 bucks

[@J.Sandhu2]

We still clown him for that in death doesnt mean he still wasnt a legend

[@TNMUSlC]

People who were clowning him did not have reading and understanding comprehension. Also when they did know they just wanted to ride the "LOL" and likes wave. He was actually matching 50$ for everyday dollar donated.

@@J.Sandhu2 never said he wasnt just dont claim you respect him if you clowning him over 50 bucks💀

[@J.Sandhu2]
