xMONCHtv THROWBACK: Reebok A5 Jadakiss and Allen Iverson Commercial

In this video, you will see one of the most iconic sneaker commercials of all time: the Reebok A5 Jadakiss and Allen Iverson Commercial.

This ad was released in 2001 to promote the 6th signature shoe of NBA MVP Allen Iverson, the Reebok Answer 5. The commercial features rapper Jadakiss spitting bars over a beat made of Iverson’s basketball sounds, such as dribbling, squeaking and swishing. The ad showcases Iverson’s skills, style and swagger on the court, as well as his cultural impact and influence on hip-hop and fashion.

The Reebok A5 Jadakiss and Allen Iverson Commercial is a lesson on how not to other Black culture and one of the first examples of basketball embracing hip-hop in a way that wasn’t watered down.
