LAS VEGAS

Well, soon as I touched down in Charlotte..I made a couple of calls and text to friends to let them know I arrived home safely. First thing was "how was it?" "When you updating the blog?" My response was "um..maybe Tuesday or weds." That was not acceptable to them..so I'm updating it now.
Well, where do I begin? I almost didn't make the trip because..in a way I didn't want to go. I got a message from Rex(Rogue Status)and Brett(Estate LA)like you need to come out and hang out. Plus, Henry and Shane was on me about coming too.(thanks guys).So I got things together(Thanks Mom Love You)and was on my way. Well I flew out with Kevin, AC, and Shane..Bobby and Adam was on a different flight..Aaron and Henry came later that day. I don't know if I wanna go into everything..because It was for 4 days..thats just way to much to type. I was going for Magic Fashion Tradeshow to meet up with the Rogue and Estate boys and that's that. I got taken care of with me getting in and everything at Magic. Magic was very awesome and interesting at the same time..was alot to take in..I understood what I needed to see moving forward as far is Fashion nowadays...so much going on in one place. I didn't make to PROJECT or POOL Tradeshows but okay..next time.

Well, everybody I met and talked to was great..Greg Carroll(Empire Dist), Mega(Huf, Black Scale)was a personal highlight. House of Commons, Undefeated, Fruition, Thoroughbredz, and Cloth and Canvas stores were very nice and helpful letting us know where the parties were at, other stores, where to eat...everybody was awesome. I apologize for misjudging Jereme Rodgers..I was standing next to Shawn(Active)and He stuck his hand out and said "what up homie"..again awesome dude. Oh yeah while I was at the Sprite counter waiting for a drink..the Mighty Mos Def jumps on Stages and performs..I didn't have my camera..so sorry..but It was dope trust. I was going to go into everybody ..but naw..I'm not. All in all I had a great time and I'm just going to post the photos and you can get the explanation from there. Okay on to the photos.

I still got sick anyways from Hen, Shane, or just being in Vegas. I had such a great time, and was glad I was with some of my friends. I got to know my friends just a little more, some where good..and some were bad. I got to see true colors of some folks..hmmm..Hey gotta except people for who they are..as long as it's genuine..it's ok.
I would like to thank my Mom, Imek, Joneses, Thug Mansion, Rogue Status, Estate LA, St. Tropez's complimentary breakfast, Ann for letting us mob your truck, Kendall for the dope photos, Mikey, Zack, Paul, Undefeated, Fruition, Cloth&Canvas, Thoroghbredz, and all the people that OVERDID their "streetwear" outfits.LOL
Crazy Crepes, the HOT flight attendant named Elizabeth, AC's IPOD, I Love Sushi spot.

The big FUCK YOU goes to the Security@ Prive' in Planet Hollywood, To the dirty streets of Vegas for keeping my kicks dirty, Are piss poor service at pretty much everywhere we ate, bad farts, and bad turbulence, and high ass airport food.
Thanks god I'm home now back to Reality..Street Locals.
