here’s a prediction - the issue will bomb. why? becuase rap fans don’t want something that doesn’t look like a normal xxl, the mainstream have no interest in xxl, and style kids won’t mess with it cos it looks so appalling in design terms.

Purple Hulk
Why do you always attack the manhood of your enemies? It would seem you are pre occupied with the sexuality of strangers. Why? Isn’t your name itself a reference to a heaping mass of muscles? Even that but the true identity of the character that the Hulk is unknown to those around him, like “in the closet”. Not only that but you choose “purple” with no references to kool-aid or sizzurp. So the question becomes a question of your own manhood.

Hater Niggas Marry Hater Bitches and Have Hater Kids(Purple Hulk)….” As quoted by Kanye West 2005. Anyways Purple Hulk is a Gay Name, not gay as in Happy, I mean like Mr. Purple Hulk plays Elton John Records while wearing Incredible Hulk UnderRoos that are dyed Purple. This nigga is the ONLY nigga on here with a TransSexual Stripper’s Stage Name and he is tryin to call somebody Gay? Wow! I mean this is the SAME nigga who gets on here and talks like he really is Tough, when niggas know YOU be behind your KeyBoard at home with your Trousers down playin Hide the Sausage with your Hand to Kanye’s Picture. Fag. BITCH. Graduation Time. Bitches!!!!!!
