Yeah, nigga, let's think about yeah, two years two years two years probably about over over well over a thousand Well over thousand just just off the streets. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah and see like in the beginning I was just hustling it. Yeah I'm saying I was just hustling just to make some extra money because I had some other things going on Yeah, so it was just you know people start taking to it because like one from it's real hard to Break some especially when it's some positive. Yeah, it's hard to break some and have people take on to it But man when they took on to it, they just won't let it go They're like the pop-up scene been positive for you man the pop-up scene down there Mississippi I got a I gots to give a shout out to them ladies down there Boozio obsession J&J enterprises, man, they put it together them. They're all J&J enterprise And what was that first one? Boozio obsession Boozio obsession sought out the Boozio obsession man. What up girls? Yeah, but all them ladies down now they they've been putting it together and a shout out to push Barbie They put me in my very first pop-up shop plus barbers. Okay, plus Barbie. Oh plus Barbie. Yes, man Okay, you got it but Barbie, but like when I first got dumb If I was seeing people because it was different from hustling on the streets It was like, you know, they was dressing kind of different kind of stylish look like that It wouldn't even from Mississippi, you know, I'm saying okay, and I was like I'm coming in there with this urban Well, I'm like man. They might not be feeling me I'm telling my wife because you know, she usually go to a lot on with me. Yeah, I'm telling her like baby I don't think they gonna be feeling me like talking about and now she likes how good, you know Just just relax, you know, so we send that tape, but then they think I know man people start coming through Yeah, you start asking. Yeah, and then man, we ended up kind of selling out. We did pretty good made a couple hundred Okay, but after that, I just became a sensation at them You know I'm saying because orders and man because when I go to my turn up It's a party when I go. Is it men and women clothing you sell? Yes, ma'am So it's only t-shirts or do you sell other apparel at first? It was just t-shirts before the ladies we Yeah, we started doing shorts like the biker shorts the little lounge booty shorts and then now I got some new leggings like with their texture on it that they don't wear nowadays and Couple dudes like I do some track pants But like a lot of the men stuff I just do it because you know two years in I'm stealing that trial and never stage You know what I'm saying? So I'm still still in the lab experimenting. I like it And then but we was leaning closer toward the lady cuz niggas don't spend no money That's what I ain't great with that this out most of me and it's all the way how you bring it man It's like every everybody got a way that they do sales, right? So so if you if you target a certain market, it's the energy you bring. It's really not the individuals It's all about what come from here. So at the end of the day, I heard what you said But I just beg to differ because he niggas got that money. You know what? Let me let me rephrase. Yeah, yeah Yeah, you're afraid we can't you know, let me we can't the real ones. They wait. Yeah, yeah real ones the real brothers They wait it now. You got somebody they what they they looking they inquire and they want to get in But you know that okay, it's 20 man. Well, I got 1050. You know how to you know, they go try Because you both you both to know what's going on in the streets by the idea with people I mean, you know me. I'm not the trunk, baby. No, don't play out. My record is 35,000 in three days, man Oh, man. Yeah, let's go niggas Yeah, but all I'm saying is but those records came from a lot of say three days I saved that first week a week before Christmas So I always say three days because it primarily just getting the money dealing with different stores putting it in there Because I had stores too, but I was out the trunk and did this right the thing I can tell you we start On the time of the year But people are buying so so that's a part of it, you know, you got to know how to hit them But then that right there you basically build it up to that It don't just happen the way you just go out there and sell that money you billing clientele the whole year You are pushing you are talking to people people know you coming through All the dough boys they stand at the at the trap, you know, I'm saying so the thing I can say if they just need somebody to All they need somebody to do is it's basically a show up They don't want to leave no way but what I'm saying is that was back a long time ago But anyway, it's just it's something else when you when you when you get out there and grind and you meet your customers And you know your customers and you got to build merch up to meet your customers Ain't nothing like hands on yeah, cuz I tell you Like we go back to the numbers when I was talking about how much I moved in yeah see back then I wasn't really keeping up too much with it because like I said, I was hustling mm-hmm before I threw the LLC on there But when I after I did that I really got more business man Yeah, I got that notebook man start keeping up with what were coming in was going out by the colors sizes and everything So yeah, it's done turn to a real job. Yeah, you have to keep up with your numbers So you know what selling so you know what you need to replenish You need to know how you need to go back to the drawing board to be able to get certain information You know back to your customers and be able to what is it supply and demand because With you just doing shirts and certain outfits. You have to know that okay if a person always buying from you every week You want to keep those core customers? Happy, but you can you don't want to keep giving them the same thing over and over because they won't want to buy You have to be able to switch it up for them So how can you satisfy those customers but yet appeal to the newer clientele? Okay, you can't always keep this getting you clientele. You have to make the ones who are loyal They loyal and you know what and I got some of the most lawless Ones since day one since I've been starting out on this man They probably got the old ones when we was doing them with the cricket batter man Salute y'all man shout out to them boys and stay loyal like we've been here 14 years And we got people that been coming here for 14 years. That's when you that's when you know You're a good business person. That's the people that been coming they started coming 14 years ago They kids come here now. This is when you focused, you know I mean and you not trying to get over on people and you're doing good business you giving people a good product So when people come here, they don't know oh, it's a clothing store as well It kind of free it'll trip you out if you ain't ready for it Everybody that we've had come in be like man, it's a store But the thing is you got to get it like this man, you know It's all business and and the thing I could tell you is we just happy to have you you come up from, Mississippi You know, hey, wait a minute you come on boss top 101 man boss top one on one you here I'm happy to be here Yeah, like you like you come up from Mississippi to be on boss out one oh one that Barkevious came from North Carolina last weekend and the dude of Fleetwood came through here from Oakland last Sunday Like these people really coming through and feeling the station feeling the feeling the vibe But what we got going on this podcast man, and we can't do nothing It says a lot about us, but it says a lot about it says a lot about you What you think about how you feel about your grind about your body is willing to get up and make that move to that man That's far. Yeah, you know come up with excuses That's that that's we are the ones who put herself down in any venture We go all go after because that man that's too far man I can't I can't be bothered man, you know We talk ourselves out of it people say that other people talk us down But really nobody can talk you down you talk yourself down and out of a lot of things Yeah, and then I'm just like this man opportunities like this don't come too far because man that day I got the phone call. It was just a series of just bad look that day And I like I next time I see this number cuz yeah, this cat here. I always switch No, yeah, yeah, yeah, I said Texas man. I said this probably damn tell a market or something I had them say a phone number now, but oh When I got chance to talk to y'all I looked at my cousin. I said man, you know what we go. Yeah Yeah, yeah, we're going ain't ain't no I said, I don't care if I got to get them take a bus to get out here Man, I'm coming to be on boss. Yeah, sir better believe and the thing I could say is man The most most important thing is is that you you basically respect what you doing and like you said earlier You turned it into a business. I heard you when you said I got mail LC and I you know I'm saying I got my whole situation set up so that my taxes everything will be right You know, I treated it as a business you respected that as a business So therefore that respect in turn is gonna come back to you and through the people that you working with So that's the whole game like the more you know You got to give respect in order to get respect even through your business and a lot of people don't get that part They out here just trying to do something You know they ain't gonna take the next step to go get that LLC that DBA to try to set up that you know Situation, you know, I started out of a truck, you know and a situation where one of my partners had a story was closing down And he gave me he had a box of clouds like say man Why don't you uh that why you didn't sell me this though? And he was like this is a bad location. You don't want this location It was out of big T bizarre when I made the little bazaars out here And I was helping him move out of that store. And so he was like I said man How much you want for the cloak or he couldn't put him nowhere in the other store He had another spot too. He was like man, just give me 200 for that box I didn't even know what was in the box. I said, yeah, I got it and then he was I said how much for that We said 200 more give him $400 you remember that and I ended up flipping it from 400 to 4,000 You know what I'm saying taking in and going to the streets and and that's when it started for me I figured out that day This is what I need to be doing because I always were hustling so I like to flip anyway So when I flipped that and I was like, yeah, this is it right here So I knew right then that it wasn't no turning back for me when the street when the streets along Mississippi Embraced it the way they did I knew right then I was working with some yeah Yeah, I knew right then I was working with some yeah And that's why I chose you to be on boss talk 101 because I see a lot of me in you I see a lot of me in Johnny light show I know where I came from what I done and so that for that reason, that's why I'm linking everybody up I also got a partner shot ID map who did a 8732 for a jeezie he designed it He also designed Jewel house for a little boosty and me and him we rock out He just hit me back yesterday. He just did a presentation where he was educating people on on designs and clothing brands and he had a brand called Convertible bird shot our convertible bird that was one of first brands before, you know, that was his personal brand And and we we loved it. You know what I mean? We supported it It was here old-school cars. It was about old-school cars. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, you talk about the Mason Dixon line and all kind of stuff and we supported him in and and and you be a Relationships like that and and so I'm linking something together where a panel of people and I make him bring you in Virtual on the zoom to where you can be a part of that to where it's gonna be a couple of dudes sitting here He's gonna be on the screen I may call get you to call in so y'all can get some game on what he how he came from what he came from and he Been in the game for over 20 30 years So any working with he's still right now predominantly in the eye of the entertainers where they respect him in the market of Design and I appreciate that that mean a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that way you can get some more jewels some more Yeah, something that can pretty much touch you to where you can grow some more man I ain't no butter sponge. I soak it all. Yeah. Yeah, he done in Atlanta, too. Okay. Yeah He in Atlanta shot ID map man love that dude man. So he's gonna do that. We already talked about it We was just trying to set it up after the all-star weekend. So that's what we was at with it. Let me ask you Print your own shirts, right? Yes, ma'am What would you say cuz right now a lot of people are doing that a lot of people are printing shirts Trying to sell shirts and stuff like that. What makes you different from everybody else who's doing the same thing because I'm willing to do What I'm doing now the leg work. Wow because good it's molding the t-shirt I say this is an experience because a lot of people that design. This is the original I have like three or four other designs. There's floating too But this right here. That's what we started out with and a lot of older people They didn't get it because they seen the man with scarf on his face And they was like, well, is he doing something wrong? Is he robbing still not like no man. No, sir The reason for that how I took it Because you see a lot of people special associate me they get on that time my man. I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do that, you know, really looking for validation for people who don't really kill, you know It don't mean nothing But my whole thing was we go get the money and we ain't gonna talk about none of our moves until they are already made I'm I discipline myself on that. I speak it into existing in my mind But when it's made that's when I bring it out. You know what I'm saying in the words bag ronald We ain't chasing after we control the wealth. We make the bag go up. We make it go down We make it stay the same we control it. You know what I'm saying because a lot of times we let money control us I like what you're saying and I would have never gotten that from just looking at the logo I love your perspective on that and What I think you should do with just what you said Pick little bits and pieces of quotes and maybe even put that on the back Just to show the positivity Because I can see where somebody looking at that logo and said, oh, he robbing a bank or he whatever like Why am I supposed to support that when that's you know negative or something like that? But you know what like at the pop-up shops a lot of people they ask me You know, they wouldn't mean and see I'm gonna tell you now this came out in 2019 before the pandemic Fast forward 2020 2021 everybody. We're still got we still got to get money. But what we got to do with So it was our ridder hit his tan But I like the meaning what you have behind it Even if you have to put up printed because some people put those little printed cards that when you buy it You actually get that with it. So you're telling them what it really stands for. You know, there's something like that Our slogan is rock will represent you like whenever I hand out my business card It has that big slogan written in bold black letters on they call rock what represents you What does that mean? It means like a I'm all about getting me some money. I'm all about running me a bag So, you know, I'm saying rock will represent you if that's what it is Then you need the shirt on because I'm selling you more than the shirt I'm selling you the experience because we're getting up out of that broke talking that broke thinking that broke living You know, I'm saying everything positive And everything is trying to accumulate wealth and whatever it is you're doing it Don't matter if you're working at McDonald's or you a big real estate guru or whatever this for you You know, I'm saying this for the ones the everyday people who trying to get it because I'm one of them people and I always keep them in mind because they keep me going Wow And one more thing Whereas qualities concern because I see a lot of people who start off printing shirts And those vinyls don't stay on real good So how does yours stand up to that? Okay. Well, we ended up doing we was using that Cricut vinyl Shout out to jay ward at lab sway because they they put me in the game with my first prints And they still do a little stuff for me some full of color things that I might not be able to do but um For a while, I got him touched with one of my partners and he was all telling me about this place FM expressions all these heat transfer places So we started using then we got a sample pack from them And then a we put it on that also you use somebody else to print your stuff I printed myself, but see my logos already be cut out. I just order my sheets. I just tell them what color I want You know, I'm saying a lot a lot of time. I've been shopping with them so much I just hit a button and then when it gets to the crib I already had shirts, you know, however, however, and then I just throw them on their heat press make sure they're on that good Hey, sometimes we wash them and then like I know I got some still from last year with this same style on that It's done still don't come on stood to test the tan So you're saying that the cricket a lot of people do go by that cricket So you said that that's no good But see a lot of people they don't use that heat press a lot of them use that iron on press And that's not good But see the only reason that they do that because that's people for like who's doing other shirts See, I don't make shirts for nobody else I just kind of cut the middle man on that out on my operation So I'm like shoot if I go ahead and get the equipment, you know, I mean Hey, I can you know save a couple of dollars, you know, I'm saying you did it right and then plus You know getting into that we sending it out of state sending it out of town it make my turnaround time quicker Yeah, yeah, you're doing it right. You're doing it right. That's that's what you should be doing anything to Save yourself some money and be able to save your customer some money You want to do it to where it can be affordable? I mean respected, you know, I mean and and also to where everybody can feel good about the situation Yeah, I think that's important. I feel good when I sell somebody something that I know I feel good that I bought it and it's a good product and here This is yours and then you and then you want to make them feel good. Yeah spending a month. Yeah, that's right And sometimes you can't do everything yourself So just like how you said you had to get somebody else to print your logo And then you just pick up the vinyl But something like in my mind, I'm like, okay, how can I do that? So I can cut that person out of the picture too so I can just do everything myself I don't have to wait on that person to give me the stuff to do it Right because you know because because people still had a personal lives two things come up Right sometimes equipment go out, you know, it's man-made. So, you know, it ain't gonna last forever So what's up with the Other uh people down there. Is this some other other brands down there with the big stores down there? How do you how do you how do you keep it going? I mean, are you You got what's up down there? What part of Mississippi? I'm from law. I'm Mississippi law. I'm Mississippi. Shout out law.

Oh, you're the straight up entrepreneur. Hey, man So you're entrepreneurial they ain't giving out no hand out How did you get into that? I always did apartment maintenance and about like 2011. I was looking for a job I knew a little bit about plumbing but not too much. So I ended up working for a plumbing company and uh I seen, you know, they taught me the tricks of the trade and then like I started seeing how much money I was bringing them in and then what I was leaving with at the end of the week So I was like shoot the machines I was hauling on that van.

That's good because some people be mad to know that you left and created our own company in that same field You know what I mean? Uh, they were very supportive because they had to think about it. They had to start somewhere too That's good. You know what I mean? That's good. So how long you've been doing it now? I've been doing it now for yourself for myself probably about five years That's long. That's good. And you know, and you know what out of five years We've been doing good work on and off.

I told you man the pop-up shops bad Because like I said it's a party to me. Yeah, you know what I'm saying like Ain't nothing like having a good time smiling and getting money at the same time Yeah, I see usually what when I think a pop-up shop I'm thinking you just go to somebody's shop and pop up there and sell some clothes But what you guys are talking about literally is something to where y'all bring a whole bunch of people to something like a venue And all of y'all sit you just set up to sale. Yeah, I wish I wish I could come down I wish I could come down april 18th, man. April 18th. It's gonna be Sunday, April 18th What are we doing? Oh, we got the 17th.

But you know what man Now like I said, I'm starting to see the motion in my movement because I remember I used to have to ask to be a part of now I get so many invites I have to pick and choose which one you go to that's favor. See favor ain't fair. No, no favor ain't fair, man And when you put God first, that's what happens. Oh, yeah, he gets the glory before every time you hey listen, man The foundation is God the foundation see what I'm saying if you if you build on that foundation You got to be very careful for how you build because at the end of the day You the steps of a good man is ordered by God You see what I'm saying, so so there's there's where you start to grow and elevate and excel Is through having the right foundation you guys You guys are doing something great down there in Mississippi Look like y'all linking up and not just in law but different places y'all going around touching and you know building relationships Right and another thing This this everything we do has meaning behind it, you know, there's one One particular foundation that we all have to start from and another thing that I offer is credit Oh, yeah. Yeah, I thought of it. You said credit earlier What what are you doing to help people that have bad credit issues? First of all, we're educating people about credit, you know Uh, our credit repair company better life credit repair and education services Where we educate you on how to use your credit card. Wow on how to Uh, actually use your 30% utilization and boost your credit scores We're giving people man Opportunities to restart rebuild the lives because one thing about credit You can always rebuild and restore your credit. Uh, we got an anniversary coming up on May the 2nd Which will be a couple or next month and we're going to do something real big for our clients Man, we had the cheapest prices in America We helping people getting cars getting financed with auto loans, man We're doing everything that we can. Um, we do a u trade lines. We do primary trade lines, man We're doing it all how long you've been doing it Uh made a second would be on my anniversary to be one year anniversary. Oh just one year One year, uh-huh, and uh, we're working on that right now, but this One year is a great time to spend. How long does it take to, um Rebuild someone's credit all depends on situation typically Say the worst case scenario that you've seen so far worst case scenario It takes about six months to a year because what we do, uh, we give you the first round We you want to pay for one round What we do is to give you the second the third and fourth round for free It takes about 45 days for us to get some results in if nothing comes off in that 45 days We want to give you a second for our second round and it all goes to the last round until we get you completely clean During the process we teaching you we teaching kids. We teaching, um Teenagers how to use credit cards We're uh making sure that once you get a cataclysm a lot of people a lot of times We're uneducated and misinformed about credit because if we wouldn't talk they don't they won't teach credit in schools It's it's impossible for them to teach us credit in school So we have to learn on the fly and once you learn on the fly, you know It may it makes it a lot harder to you to develop the process of using of good credit because you can leverage your credit You can get any bank loan you want You can get any auto loan you want you can purchase a house and that's a way of good living So that's the motto of our name is better like creative repair and education services where we Make you a whole lot better than when you came into our program If you follow our program step by step with then three to six months, you'll come out of different parts and that's guaranteed guarantee A lot of people probably ask you because I know how people are there's like if you helping me to do my credit What is your credit store? Right my credit score? I have a 805 750 and 791 Wow, because you know, that's also how people are like, how can you help me if your credit don't look, you know Good, but it wasn't like that a year ago I went through a little difficult situation that we all go through and uh one one I got up My president or vice president of better like creative repair We had a conversation because I purchased some trade lines from A company and I never got the trade line So I'm calling calling calling. I never got a phone call back So I got up one more and I prayed and asked god to leave me in the right path And helped me to get to the position to where I can, you know, take care of my life Start a whole new life Called in office one day got picked up the phone. I never heard his voice before never met him a day of my life We picked up the phone. He was like, hey man, can I help? I said, yeah I'm calling thinking talking about a trade line that I purchased and I never got him And I wanted for a refund and he was like, well, I don't know about that But let me see what I can do So conversation lasts for an hour and a half man Me and this guy talked about some personal life situation to hustling grind something that we went through kind of had the same story Ended up about an hour and a half in conversation He had a phone call. He's like, hold on for a minute. Jabbar It was his supervisor. She was asking him how I stay was So he told him she told him that, uh, you know, everything's going good But we have one problem. We had a person that's wanting to get a hundred percent refund from a trade line He purchased it. He never got that led to a bun I got my refund back. He asked me a day or two later What if I asked you to go in the business? He said I had a vision to open up a credit prep company The lord led me to you and I said if the lord led you to me, what are you waiting on? I'm all I'm all man gotta start up the lord led me To you then what are we waiting on exactly? That is the most important thing, you know The one thing I see the season in your conversation Is the fact that god is the one that you are moving with and that's the crazy thing because then The lord led him to you and your beliefs and god was already there. So there was nothing Stopping that, you know what I mean? Exactly. That's a good thing. That's that's amazing. Yeah.

It's something that's going to take you somewhere Everybody that's listening at the at the sound of our voice It can this is therapeutic to them and they able to see that okay So see the narrow did it and I can do it, right?

You see what I'm saying and you know that speaking of asset, you know Of my grandsons has created their own clothing line called visions. Okay. Shout out to your grandson That's the other one that was on the tip of my tongue. That's the one That's the one Because I know I had mentioned the mother fellas bad, you know what I'm saying, but I see I it's somebody I'm missing. Yeah, I heard you say that five or six year old ceo. You know what man create their own t-shirts Listen, man, hold up, bro. Don't just try to plug that in. Let me tell you Hold up You know I'm saying your son you're how old is he my grandson is five and six years Five and six. Okay. If you bring him back to Dallas my daughter She got a program that runs out here called youth exclusive What she interviewing young kids and people from different walks of life And she basically talking with them over topics and over subjects just like yourself She had a young girl on here about three weeks ago. That's an artist. That's what's 12 years old So we working over here. Yeah, you you you write in the right place. You know what I'm saying Get him back and see what happened youth exclusive going to give him an exclusive interview. Y'all invited Bring the kids on breaking generation. That's right.

I'm running out of New Jersey or Philadelphia I'm like, oh my god things out of Philly. Yeah, but but that's what I'm saying. This this stuff is happening It the internet has changed the game People are seeing more things we can pretty much capitalize on the fact that children eyes are being open to And a lot of people be like man, it's I can't believe that they letting the kids look at this and letting the kids look at that But Entrepreneurship is happening through our children as well You have to flip the coin and you can't look at the glass half empty. You have to look at it half full It's all about perception So so basically how are you going to scale on the fact of what your child is doing? Are you going to look at it in a way to make it something that's negative? Or are you going to bring the positive out like you just done the fact and show them the positive way Lead them in a positive way that way they can scale as well and the generational curse can be broken as you spoke of That's what it's all about Yeah, man.
