But I got to Howard and I went 95 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: for a random visit and I think it was like 96 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: accepted students and one of those days where the grass 97 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: is cut, all the food is stocked, and everybody dressing up, 98 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: and I just stepped on campus and I just felt 99 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: like I was at home, Like it was crazy. And 100 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: I visited a lot of schools and just nothing made 101 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: me feel like Howard made me feel when I stepped 102 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: on campus, and I was like I gotta be here, 103 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: And so I wanted to get away from my mom 104 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: too and my family because it's just a lot in college. 105 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to be free, and so I was like, man, 106 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: this is the decision I want to make. And then 107 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: my mom went there. She was the only person to 108 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: graduate from college in my family. So I just wanted to, 109 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: you know, pay my respects to her, and so that 110 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: was it. My host story is pretty simple. Yeah, mine 111 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: is totally different. So I was the first person in 112 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: my family to go to college in general, alright, appreciate that. 113 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: So actually I was getting the haircut. Granted, this was 114 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: damn there eight years ago probably I was getting the 115 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: haircut and it wasn't even my actual barber, you know 116 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: when you got your replacement Barbara, because your barbera not 117 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: really there. So my standby. So he was like, with 118 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: schools did you get accepted to? I told him, you know, 119 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: the University of North Texas, Baylor University, and then Howard. 120 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: And then he was like, man, go to Howard. And 121 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: then I didn't know about fraternity sorority is nothing, HBC 122 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: is anything. And I was like, you know what, it's 123 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: the one that's out of state. Let me go get 124 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: that out of state experience. Why would you listen to 125 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: your exactly, which is crazy? Even your first bar you 126 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: o me some money. But now that was a story 127 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: that did late. You still get cut by the bar. Now, 128 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: I ain't got a haircutting so long, but look I've 129 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: seen him. I went back home, and I've seen him 130 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: in the club randomly. So I had to go to 131 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: my ibody. Appreciate you making that suggestion in my senior 132 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: year because it really shaped my life, like going to 133 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: the HBC. That's what it means when they said take 134 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: a village, bro, you don't never know what you might 135 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: hit some good ship from right all the way. So 136 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: why support black colleges in that? Yeah, because I mean 137 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: even with my story, you know, that was something I 138 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: didn't know about at all. So when I got there 139 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: and I realized that it was so much black excellence 140 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: and so many people that looked like me trying to 141 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: do the same thing, Like we need to bring awareness 142 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: to this because there's no reason that my mom, my grandma, 143 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: myself and all the other kids in my high school 144 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: didn't know about it at all. So that was the 145 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: motive behind it. But yeah, I mean kind of similar. 146 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: But you think about it when you're getting recruited go 147 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: to colleges or you know, people are reaching out all 148 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: his college fairs, college fairs, and it ain't no cool 149 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: way to show HBC was like people weren't putting it 150 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: out there and promoting it. Back in the day you 151 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: have Martin Fresh Princes, they used to wear the HBC stuff, 152 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: Queen Latifa. But then that kind of like it was like, 153 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: you know, we want to bring it back in the 154 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: way that people we can relate to our people, and 155 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: so merchandise is the way that we can do so. 156 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: And I had just happened to make a random shirt 157 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 1: on campus that everybody liked, and so we was like, man, 158 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: we could use this and we could take it to 159 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: this school to school to school. And then we were like, well, 160 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: let's make something that all the schools to wear. And 161 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: then that's what's for back holle of this conca. What 162 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: was the first T shirt? It was a T shirt. 163 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: It was like Howard University shirt UM, and it was 164 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: just like a logo, some pin stripes, UM, just like 165 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: a regular Howard shirt with with a logo. And then 166 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: my friends from ANTI was like, let me get one 167 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: for homecoming. So we made an ANTI when my family 168 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: was like, oh, let me give one family, and so 169 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I gotta make something that everybody can get. 170 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: So we made a it was our logo and some 171 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: kin say print and on the back and had all 172 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: of the schools listed that where everybody could feel like 173 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: they could be a part of it. And that's kind 174 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: of how I got started. So when did y'all start 175 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,599 Speaker 1: making money from it? Like, man, it was problem. We 176 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: were so we're making a lot of money in college. 177 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: So me and just need to stop parties. So we 178 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: already knew how to sell things. It part of you're 179 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: just selling the same experience over and so we already 180 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: knew how to make money selling something. And so we 181 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: were making money in college. I couldn't tell you the 182 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: profit margins. I was just I knew I had a 183 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: pocket full of money. That's a fact full of money. 184 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: You got a pocket full of problems, so that's good. 185 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: And so it was like one of those things where 186 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, this this could actually go. And 187 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: after school and after we got at school, we kind 188 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: of stopped it and then just recently brought it back 189 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: about three years ago. So it was one of those 190 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: things in college it was cool. And then when I 191 00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: got off campus, me and him both started just doing 192 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: like working regular jobs, and so it was one of 193 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: those things we kind of let go and then you know, 194 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: three years and it was like, we got to bring 195 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: this about. That's a good question for you, because I 196 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: think a lot of HBCU students go through that process 197 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: of you know, a lot of us are of the 198 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: first people to go to college and our families, you 199 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 1: know what I mean, and a lot of people don't 200 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: come from the legacy of having collegiate you know, experience. 201 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: So you followed Molde to where you go to school, 202 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: you graduate, and go get a job. What was the 203 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: point where you realize, Man, fuck this ship? Oh? I 204 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: know mine freshman year, Bro, freshman year because we was 205 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: making so much money, I skipped a grade. So I 206 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: was seventeen in college and then Bro, we're talking about 207 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: sixteen seventeen making ten fifteen thousand dollars a month from parties. 208 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: I was like, Bro, why am I here? This don't 209 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: make no sense. Try to drop out every year. I 210 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: tried to drop out everything year. So but then I 211 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: was just like, it don't make sense for me to 212 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: be here because I can learn more outside of the university. 213 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: Like we learned in business from someone who's never owned 214 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 1: a business before. It like, it didn't make sense to me. 215 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: So we started our own business and started making money. 216 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: And that's when it was just like, man, I don't 217 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: need to be here to do this. But so you 218 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: didn't get a regular job ever. So I've had two 219 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: regular jobs ever in my life. I'm the worst employee 220 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 1: ever I had. I've worked that shoe. I worked the 221 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 1: shoe Carnival and they would tell me like, hey, your 222 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: job for the first hours to sweep, and it would 223 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: take me from nine am to five pm and I'll 224 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: sweep the whole thing, just going slow, like just a 225 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: terrible employee. And then like so then but then so 226 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: then afterwards, when I graduated, I had one more job 227 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: doing digital marketing, and then like six months and I 228 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: was like, this is impossible for me to like take 229 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: directions from other people telling me when I can go 230 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: on vacation and things like that. So I just quit 231 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: and then I just started being an entrepreneur from there. Okay, 232 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: yeah for me, it was kind of different. So we actually, 233 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: uh we moved up to a winto I moved out 234 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: randomly to Atlanta, and um I got a job with 235 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: Tyler Perry. So um, I was like, I called dressing. 236 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm like dressing, come out here. They get this free money. 237 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 1: We're doing social media market and Brandon and so it 238 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: was a town of like these moments, think I'm giving 239 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: away money. That work was easy for us, Like we're 240 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: marking in brands so much. It was so easy for us, 241 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: and so we made our own terms. I was like, 242 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: I want to work from home. I won the office, 243 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: and they gave us everything we asked for, and so 244 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: it got to a point where they started asking for 245 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: more and more and I was like, man, I feel 246 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: like they're asking for too much based off of what 247 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: I came here and saying that I wanted. And so 248 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: it got to a point one day we started doing 249 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: a clothing brand again. It was like we just started 250 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: making hoodies again and stuff, and we started making it 251 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: and then we just started seeing money coming in like easily. 252 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: Like people was like, well, I've been at these past 253 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: few years and I don't look. Yeah, it's time to go. 254 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: And so you walked away from a job of Tyler Perry. 255 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: Everybody's like, yo, crazy, y'all crazy. And I'm like I 256 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 1: explained to people today, like we were making a hundred 257 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: k plus a year, but now like we can make 258 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: a hundred k in a day now. So it's like 259 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: some people had that mindset of like, oh, I gotta 260 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: stay here because it's guaranteed money. Like I rather better 261 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: myself and see how much I can run it up 262 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: and forget that you quit on you mother. Giving away 263 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: money was all right, And I think that's something that 264 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, I promote that all the time. You know, 265 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 1: when I graduated, I want to get a job where 266 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: I did my internship, and they told me he would 267 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: be making six dollars and hours time. I was like, ship, 268 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: because you know, I've always been a hustle. I've been 269 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: making my own money for a long time. So I 270 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: told myself I much rather be broken struggling and building 271 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: my own legacy to be broken struggling and hoping somebody 272 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: recognized the work ethic and giving me a shot to 273 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: move up. So I think a lot of us at 274 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: HBCU specifically have a fear because we don't have too 275 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: many examples that are there that have done it. You 276 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: know what I mean that really, you know, you've got 277 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: people that are telling you follow the instructions of what 278 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: you're supposed to do, get this degree, get a job, 279 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: and you know, pay loans for the rest of it 280 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: and it's it's like to see you guys as entrepreneurs 281 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: that came from black schools and then you know, your 282 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: story sounds super successful. So did you have any pitfalls? 283 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: Like there's so many like where we started. I mean, 284 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, you got stuff from when we're in business, 285 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: like manufacturers running off on us, you know, ten dollars 286 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: here and there. I mean you got like just not 287 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: really because an entrepreneurship, you really don't understand how to 288 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: do certain things until you get into that field. So 289 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: we had thirty employees at one point, and I didn't know. 290 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: I'm just a kid from you know, Houston, Texas. And 291 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: then we get thirty employees. I'm trying to figure out 292 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: how to manage people and you know hr and all 293 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: of this different stuff, and then you know, just random 294 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: stuff happening here and there that we just wasn't weren't 295 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: prepared for. You know, you don't know what you don't 296 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: know until it happens. Then you'd be like, oh, I 297 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: need to learn this. I think one of the biggest 298 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: things that we're wearing into was last year, before Black Friday, 299 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: like probably like a month before Black Friday, we had 300 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: just got all our inventory, and it was Atlanta. It 301 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: like rained like seven days straight. I don't know what 302 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: was going on. It rains so much our whole way 303 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: house split it. We lost like thirty tho dollars worth 304 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: the merchandise. Mind right before Black Friday. Most of that 305 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: stuff I came from overseas. That's a month process too, 306 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: month process mind you was doing COVID when when when 307 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: shipping was even longer because of COVID. And so that 308 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: that day we said we fed up with this place. 309 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: We ended up getting rid of the inventory and buying 310 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: a warehouse like a day later and end up moving 311 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: and then Black Friday we had our first million dollar week. 312 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: Y'all keep running it up on there. Y'all get support 313 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: from black colleges, and we support them like outside of 314 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: just like donations, because anytime we sell something with the 315 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: school logo, they gets having presented to sell.

I know 333 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: about familiar he um during when they came back from 334 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: COVID and they played in the Bubble Um, he did 335 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: the sneaker tour with us. We're basically every week or 336 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: every game, he would have a different HBC on the 337 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: shoe and so we was feeding them information and sending 338 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: the merchandise to match the HBCU. So he might have 339 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: on some blue, light blue and white shoes with a 340 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: Spellman T shirt and we would make him a graphic 341 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: that says someone college was founded in someone else up 342 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: and we did the whole tour and then players like 343 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: Jayson Tatum, Zion Williamson, Donovan Mitchell, all these guys are like, hey, 344 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: what you're getting the stuff from? And he really just 345 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: put the whole NBA on, which ended up leading us 346 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: to Atlanta. We had to offer game here last year, um, 347 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: and they hit us up like, I see what you've 348 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: been doing, Chris Paul, like I want you to be 349 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: a part of the NBA All Star Game, And we 350 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: literally gave all the merchant of players and did a 351 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: whole HBC. You said it was extremely amazing, But Chris 352 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: Paul was the reason why that happened at Christmas exactly 353 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: where the trap is man and you know, we fun 354 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: you look at this. I don't even know what school 355 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: this is, you know, but uh, like, are you guys 356 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: thinking about expatting into you know, you have a lot 357 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: of of us that support a lot of high end brands. 358 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: You know a lot of high end stuff. You know, 359 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 1: paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for you know, closing 360 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: made for European whitening, you know what, so they like fact, 361 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: So have you guys ever thought about venturing into some 362 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: high end stuff? And still with the brand, or are 363 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: you thinking of just separating and making some high and 364 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: stuff with the infrastructure that you built as amazing? Now, 365 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 1: that's one thing we've been thinking about since we got 366 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: all the data from our customers. Now we can expand 367 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: into any type of avenue as long as it's in 368 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: that realm. So we're thinking about something like called the 369 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: Black Ivy League and then doing you know, high end 370 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: type of pieces. So that's something we've been thinking about 371 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: for sure, all the way all the way. That's smart, 372 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? That's smart. So, like, do 373 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: you guys been as though I'm thinking that this year 374 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: the home comings are probably gonna be a little They're 375 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: gonna be back. I mean, they might not be all 376 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: the way back, but like that, have you guys ever 377 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: thought about doing a campaign that specifically geared towards HBCU 378 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: homecomings like stuff? That's you know what I mean, that's 379 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: that's you know and involved with the brand. But I 380 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: just say that because you know, if you go to 381 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: these home comings, which we've been to. I went to 382 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: an HBCU, but we didn't formed it that everyone we 383 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: see you see, like just how the culture of hbc 384 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: U is specifically during that weekend. So like do you 385 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: think that putting something together for each you know what 386 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: I mean, and maybe putting it like to what people post, 387 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, what they got on and 388 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: what they're doing. Like I think that would be dope 389 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: for y'all to do, just because you already got the 390 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: infrastructure and just you know, making home coming pieces like 391 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and maybe a competition or something, 392 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: because you know, we all go back and forth which 393 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: one is the greatest, you know what I mean. Personally, 394 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: I gotta give it the ant because I've been the 395 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: house DC nigger. I grew up around Howard, and Howard 396 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 1: is more, you know what I mean. Like you said, 397 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: the Ivy League, you come out there, you ain't got 398 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: you just ain't looking at it. And t is that 399 00:20:53,600 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: motherfucker's out there taking shot with the police everything everything. 400 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: That's the thing. Those people. That's what I mean about 401 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: the home compus because every school has their daring's and 402 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: their cheekos or beatats, and these people who are in 403 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: printed on the campus that you know what I mean, 404 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: host everything and bring the culture to the campus. And 405 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: each generation has that person. So you guys, you know, 406 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: tapping in with those people. Man is brilliant, extremely important, 407 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: and luckily we had built like like Beata and my 408 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: mom used to babysit meat that when he was younger 409 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: him for a long time. And then I met Darren 410 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 1: because one of my guys Matt Summers, he's the alpha NT. 411 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: He used to host everything with Darren and so we 412 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: kind of and then Jay Murphy went to Howard while 413 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: we was there, he started hosting everything. So it kind 414 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: of just barked together. But last year with COVID, we 415 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: was like, how can we help the HBC. You know 416 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: that's when they make a lot of their money's home 417 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: coming all the people on campus. And so what we 418 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: did we did a virtual homecoming actually, and so we 419 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: had dinnering and pretty be host and then we had 420 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 1: two chains Mulatto money bag Yo um black. We got 421 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 1: at all out of pocket. I spent five hundred thousand 422 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: dollars all of them together, and uh, it was no funding. 423 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: We nobody picked us up the stream. We try to 424 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 1: be a team, reach out to everybody. Nobody picked us 425 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: up and we ended up you know, we actually won 426 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: two awards. We want a Webby and another award for 427 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: Online performances or something like that. It was I didn't 428 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: even know those things existing. But we gave money to 429 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: the HBCS, we gave salar ships, and we just let 430 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: the community feel that we were still supporting them. So 431 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: we're gonna do something like that again this year, and 432 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: then every year we do hard. Every year we do 433 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: a homecoming towards too. So we're we're trying to hit 434 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: twenty schools this year. UM.
