Lifeās been a little crazy...
I didnāt have it in me to create for a while, so the personal projects had to wait until I felt like myself again. Or at least until I couldnāt wait anymore.
Sometimes things just find their way back to you, and thatās the calling.
For the past five years, the trunk of my car was home to a clothing brand I kept exclusive to my closest friends. And a lot of the people who helped get it to where it is today arenāt here anymore.
So this is for them. For the ones who shaped it, and the ones who shouldāve been here to see it finished. Every R carries weight, and every piece has a story. Itās more than just fabric to meā¦ Itās names, memories, loss, and life all stitched together.

I left my crib in the middle of the night to go downtown so I could take this photo. In the moment I couldnāt really rationalize why, and I probably still canāt. Iām just grateful I found something I trust without needing to explain it.

Crazy seeing my name next to someone I grew up listening to. Grateful to be part of the album cover + the music videos for Peel Baby and I Brought U Flowers š
I remember listening to RUSSELL! before I even thought about working in music. Back when I had the Plan A mixtape on repeat. Making my friends sit through my favourite videos (Way Up was always first). I even took the train in the dead of winter to see him live. So when @gavatista reached out to bring me in on the rollout for RUSSELL!ās new album, it wasnāt even a question lol
