We laughed, we cried, we nearly had a panic attack… but best of all, we made a pretty good fake-deep song inspired by @drawtheblock.sea ’s portrait event earlier that evening!

@TheStudy_Seattle is a GODSEND!! It’s the oasis of creativity that took away all the obstacles between us and releasing our next project! Not only did they make it easy to record, but they made it easy to share the journey with y’all! So I hope you stay tuned and continue (or START to) support the arts community of Seattle by following, participating, and supporting @foreversafespaces and @ontheblockseattle . BIG shout out to the dynamic duo of the block, @joulesea and @cmehitt for all the work y’all do to make this a possibility for all of us! ❤️❤️❤️ #prvx #seattlemusic #seattlehiphop #musicstudiolife

Starting with 30+ pre-orders, they have expanded into in-house garment construction. mentorship, event planning, and artist development. We are asking community to help us meet our fundraising goal of $2500 to help Titus recover from recent theft of a large majority of his collection. On Titus’s recent trip home from NYC his luggage was stolen containing ($4000) worth of valuable handmade Puffer coats, jeans, backpacks, hats, and other similar goods. Goods which also amount to  a full year worth of creating. He was relying on this for his livelihood and survival in upcoming months. We are asking community to help support this young artist in raising $2500 to help with food, rent and bills in this moment of loss. Enable Titus to have time and capacity to get back on his feet.
