Hawk partnered with beverage company Liquid Death to create some unique skateboards. They mixed the blood taken from Hawk with some red paint and the limited edition skateboard was on sale for $500. Quite a unique idea but it comes with a lot of controversies. Hawk is known for being the first man to land a 900 in X games.

Lil Nas X comes up with a trend

After that, Nas put up a creative comment under the post which seemed to be the perfect reply. However, he could not have imagined that it would receive this much fanfare.

Earlier, Lil Nas released shoes with Nike’s trademark Tick with a drop of human blood under the red sole. This move caused controversy as Nike sued the Brooklyn-based company Lil Nas partnered with.
