GoonMilk Message of the Day!
With this Coronavirus pandemic taking over the world let’s remember to be compassionate and loving in this trying time.
Gotta Stay Prayed Up!
Told Virgil write “Brick” on my Brick
Virgil Abloh and Nigo team up on a Louis Vuitton collection for the fall and it is fire!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
What you do it for?
Last week I donated some shirts to the homie Ralph and his #ToddlerBall kids!
Im Back and Im Better!
Taking a vacation once a year with my family is imperative to my creative process and clearing my head. Especially after being sick with the flu/cold the week before. My family is my everything, it’s what I work for, Its what motivates me to get up every morning. Seeing my Mommas happy and enjoying every moment of this trip is something I will forever hold dear to my heart. Heres a few pics before I drop a full Recap. I had a whole blog post written up but then my macbook died and yeah nah i’m not doing that again lol.
I love, LOVE!
Happy Valentines Day to all the lovers out there! This is low key one of my favorite holidays, and whether you believe its a made up holiday or a conspiracy to spend unnecessary money, nonetheless the love is in the air.
Your'e A Genius
You only have to be right once!
Being an artist or someone with aspirations and goals period, you have to be unwavering in your art form. Being extremely confident and faithful to your art is key!

Proper Support!
Insubordination The Podcast hosted by Zel(@HailZel) and Bre(_Breon the beat) Two class clowns turned educators come together to discuss life, pop culture, trending topics and more! This week’s episode featuring @YouKnowPolo of Great Energy Group, LittyinTheCity, and Dream Village talks about the proper way to support, ways we as a collective can support our friends better, and the impact of supporting our friends in our community.
Kitsuen Grand Opening
Friday I had the privilege of attending the Grand opening of Ramen/Saki bar Kitsuen on H st. Owned by Wayne n Tony of W&T night life and Virginia native Pusha T of the rap group Clipse. The space is luxurious yet home-y with a bar, kitchen, and back patio on the main floor and a hookah lounge upstairs with plenty seating and tables.
From Paris with LoVe
Don C and Kristen Noel Crawley are fashionably my favorite couple. If I had to model a high end luxury relationship in 2020 it’d be these two, followed by “College Dropout” Kanye and Alexis Phifer or Pharrell and Vashtie in 04. That’s my top 3 fashionable couples of all time. Honorable mention ASAP Rocky and Chanel Iman.
Detoxing
The older I get the more I realize who I was when I was younger is now much more complicated and needs much more attention and appreciation from not just others but from myself as well. Becoming more self conscious and a student of my own persona and figuring out why I am the way I am is something I have recently begun to focus on.
Happy Birthday MLK!
In 2020 we are still hanging on to your dream and fighting the good fight against racism, social injustice, and civil rights for all people of the world. Not many know the history of our nation and the atrocities you fought to the death to bring to light and to bring change to.
Passion and Purpose
Once I found my passion in fashion I started my business, but once I began to use my brand in helping others and teaching kids and working within my community, I found my purpose. The energy and positive vibrations from working with some foster kids and local teens this weekend was extraordinary.
Food for Thought
Anything that god has for me, is for me. No man or woman can block or take that from me. Time is a human construct that can confuse and mislead you on your own personal journey thinking you’re missing out or that someones blessing should be yours. Life is about building and creating, not following a timeline or someone else’s construct of what success is.
All the Smoke
Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes’ podcast all the smoke has become one of my favorite podcast in the past year or so. Only into their 11th episode fairly new I think it has the potential to grow into that breakfast club, Joe Budden type podcast level.
Ear to the Streets: Griselda
Benny the Butcher, Conway the Machine, and Westside Gunn have pretty much run the underground rap scene all 2019 but I think 2020 the Buffalo natives will be taking over main stream ears as well.
Drop Gems
One of the most important parts of running a brand is knowing that everything you do reflects your brand and the reputation of your brand. So when you have an authentic, organic, fan base that relates to your brand’s authenticity and then switch up it confuses the consumer. Being consistent and brand focused is key in growth and expanding to new consumers who may not know your previous work but if you are consistent there’s no question or confusion as to what your brand offers.
If it’s up then it’s up with us!
My first week back on social media has been eventful to say the least.
Savage!
This year I’m starting off with GoonMilk messages of the day! Inspiration that gets me motivated and hopefully lights a fire inside some of you! Sometimes it’s not what people say but who says it, So instead of me preaching on my imaginary pulpit of positivity here’s some influential people and clips everyday to help you get out of those negative situations!
