Mystery Man.....

Even though this guy is my partner...yall probably see him just as much as I do. He made a rare appearance today..so it was only right I had to document it. He made it clear that he promises to be on the website more often from now on...I will believe it when I see it. Tobi is more of behind the scenes type of dude with the brand anyway, so don't think he's not working hard folks. I caught him on the phone making a major move for us earlier..got to keep that under wraps though...just wanted to stop by and keep yall updated. Photoshoot/lookbook is very close to being completed...yall are going to be SHOCKED at what you see...we called those bags in the previews SAMPLES for a reason...wait till you see the real product....JAY

Young Entrepeneurs.....

What's up world...Today was a long day...Driving up and down the Highways of New Jersey...had so much work to do with this HERDS OF THE FATHERS brand and I am exhausted. But before I could hit the sheets for the night...I was invited to speak at a program the Sigmas were hosting called "Young Entrepreneurs"..basically took young business men from around the University and area and let them talk about their experiences and the keys to starting your own business...It was cool being able to explain my story to my peers...I really want to be able to go back to my neighborhood one day and talk to kids and just try to show them that there is a way out...I was on a panel with Famous Dj's, Owners of Graphic design/photography/film companies, and young music company CEO's...it was cool just being able to sit with young, like minded individuals chasing the dream....Of course my brother Phil from THE AWARD TOUR  (click) had to be on the panel as well. We both been busy so we don't run into each other as much because we both have been on the grind lately..but its always cool to just catch up on each other's lives every once in awhile. This man has been selling out product left and right lately..with all proceeds going to his homeland of Haiti..when I see that..the only thing I can do is just work harder..HERDS OF THE FATHERS is coming folks...JAY

School Sucks...

I hate school..but there are certain things you just got to do in life that you may not like..I guess. But anyway, the semester has started off just how most of the semesters at this University start off...partying to the point of physical and mental exhuastion...Now that that's over..back to business..I am so ready for this brand to come out...It's been about a year of grinding that has gotten Tobi and I to this point..I am greatly humbled by your emails and comments that I have been getting from you guys..really appreciate it..you guys make this journey a whole lot easier on me..but with that being said..WE ARE HERE TO TAKEOVER!!...I respect every brand and what they are doing..but I'm very competitive by nature..so I know we will be able to compete with ANYBODY upon our release...mark my words...we are ready...We have worked so hard and it is not going to stop...if you are not PASSIONATE about what you are doing currently in your life..drop it asap and get to the drawing board..no time to wasteWhat you see above is pretty much my daily fuel....gotta love the College life..right?...HERDS OF THE FATHERS is looking at an early February release..long time coming...JAY

FresH oFF ThE OvEn

Wts going on, this post is coming to you from London again, two more days out here and im back in the states. My fingers are numb right now, these London folk don't believe in heat. Yesterday I was in Oxford city,  I got the honor of touring the best college in the world folks, Oxford University goes in,  American Colleges have a lot to learn. I've never scene architecture so incredible in my life ( thus far) post will be up later. but for now onto today's post.  If you remember in the previous posts ( previous pages) we showed you what the logo looked like on the caramel bag, Now fresh off the oven we have pics of the logo placements look like on the rest of the bags. Without further ado.

Boarding pass

Wts goin on world. I know its been a minute since my last post. School kinda took me under but i'm almost recovered. Still have to go back on Tuesday. I know Jason has been keeping you entertained. Just like he said, the time is NEAR, we have made some executive decisions that we will be informing you of soon, also we will be giving you a sneak peak of the logo placement on the rest of the bags. Those pics will be up shortly. Also I would like to personally thank you all for taking this ride with us thus far, you have been with us through the minor Hiccups and the release push back. We appreciate it very much. Not going to bore you with too many words, but this post is coming to you from London UK. A little vacation after all the chaos at school...One thing before you take a look a look at the pictures. If you get a chance to travel, please just get up and go. Not really living if you stay in the same location for a lifetime.

Enjoy,

This was the first time I went out to central London, Shopping District, and some random shots

More pics will come
