The Purple Label Collection
Reimagining some of our classic designs, while introducing new imagery to a higher quality of garment has been my focus for this upcoming release. Taking our streetwear to a higher quality of T-shirts while adding more thought provoking designs to our arsenal.
Cone Drills
At my big age of 36 I still can’t go a week without getting in the gym to get some shots up or running 5s anywhere I can. I play ball up to three times a week for cardio, and to show these young guys I still can get a bucket anytime I want to.
New Beginnings
This year for Juneteenth I cut my hair. My locs were down to my butt and it felt a bit too heavy to handle so for the second time since starting my loc journey in 2005, I trimmed my locs to just about 4 inches. Actually I cut them to just about the same length of Phoenix’s hair length as he also is beginning his loc journey so we can grow them together.
Year One Done
My first year as a Dedicated Aide is in the books! I want to thank my Kids first and foremost, the Staff at WLA and the Allicock Group for trusting me. Can’t wait to see what next year holds whether it be a new position at the school or another year as a Dedicated Aide and assisting with coaching at WLA.
Knowledge is Power
Finishing up my first year back inside a School environment as a Dedicated Aide at Washington Leadership Academy, a Public Charter School in Washington DC. I’ve come to the realization that mentorship, teaching, and giving back may really be my purpose in life.

Viral
As 10 Million plus of you know, or may not know my ID photos recently went viral on the internet lol. My 2018 and 2024 IDs caused a frenzy of hilarious commentary on Twitter first and then IG this week. From “he’s a crackhead” to “the difference between doing weed and doing coke”, to “Thats what living in Maryland will do to you”. All quite hilarious to me and those who know me, but I’d like to give some background on the actual factuals.
Life Lately
Been a while since I had the time to unload life’s blessings into blog form, but things have been honestly amazing for me and my family.
