In a video that Kanye, I mean... Martin Louis put on his blog, he had this to say:



"Oh hey world. As you can see, I'm in Paris, chilling. Due to the transactions (events) early this week, I have some very grim news. I know I have been called the Louis Vuitton Don...I've been called a lot of names...Due to what happened, when the red shoes hit the runway, I was forced to change my name to Martin Louis The King, Jr. Address me as such."

MLTK, Jr. said the reason behind the name change came from the gratification that he got when his red Louis Vuitton sneakers hit the runway. He knew right then and there that a name change was inevitable.
