This is because the phrase "great minds think alike" is much more than a common cleche; its the truth. Now who is David Albert you might ask? Well if I told you I would have to kill you...there are "No Commodities Present". Only a Selected Few will click this <-----

Phil Knight




Phil Knight is the founder and CEO of Nike. Hence the quote by Wale "I got Phil Knight askin' ME how I got them." He started the brand from a popular shoe brand in China at the time Tigers. They were shoes used to run track in. The dream later developed into what we see today; GLOBAL DOMINATION. Theres no where you can go without seeing the "Swoosh". But hey, dont take it from me GO READ yourself!

Are you A Wear?




That.."Roughly 115,000 people – twice the population of North Dakota’s capital, Bismarck – book their flights, hotel rooms and transportation months ahead of February 13, the start date of MAGIC, the fashion industry’s trade show that acts as a brew-ha-ha for fashion innovation, style and standard." (via Formatmag.com)

Magic trade show is definitely a good look if you want your brand to be noticed in the fashion industry. It gives you the oppurtunity to be amongst the biggest buyers in not only the country, but the world! It's like the NFL combine of fashion.

But never just take my word for it. Go read for yourself! Google is there for a reason; use it.

Ghost son.

Twtter Tuesday's:Russell Simmons



First thing's first and last thing's last I cut the middle man out so I can stack cash.lol Mickey Factz couldn't have said it better.

Like I was trying to say before I was rudely interrupted by A.D.D., today I'm officially starting a new weekly post on the blog entitled Twitter Tuesday's. Long concept short, every Tue's I introduce someone new for you to follow on Twitter that I believe is actually worth following. To start this thing off right I thought who better than I AM HIP-HOP himself Russell Simmons or "Uncle Russ". As stated by www.grist.org, Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons is the co-founder of Def Jam Records, a sometime reality star, and an entrepreneur who’s launched a number of successful ventures including clothing lines Phat Farm and Baby Phat. He’s also a yoga-practicing vegan who’s hoping to use his resources to make change in the world of hip-hop—and the world at large.

In Other Words, No Russ No Hiphop!
