Speaker B:All.
Speaker A:And, you know, I called Kim what to do, what to do.
Speaker A:Best advice, very calm.
Speaker A:And, you know, I think one thing that stuck with me, that you said.

Speaker A:And I think that I told you last night, we go together.
Speaker A:I know I shouldn't say it on the camera, but we was laughing last night, right?
Speaker A:I had your ass rolled.
Speaker A:He's a total married man.
Speaker A:No, he said, absolutely not, because I will kill him in the next six months.
Speaker A:He won't make it.
Speaker A:This.
Speaker B:I will have a heart attack.
Speaker A:He definitely died early age and it'd be a sad story.
Speaker B:I got plans, I got shit to do.
Speaker B:Can't deal with you.
Speaker A:I'm not that bad.
Speaker A:But I drive him crazy as my fashion designer.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Cause I talk fast, I move fast.
Speaker A:But no, one thing I also love about you, you've been working with the youth a lot.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker A:And, you know, that's what a lot of my show is about and what I stand for.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker A:Tell me what you do for the youth.
Speaker A:Besides, you know, just everything.
Speaker A:What do you do for the youth right now?
Speaker B:From mannerisms to, you know, working on their business, LLCs to credit to how to work a resume, how to have a paradigm shift in their minds.
Speaker B:You know, I start with spiritual.
Speaker B:You got to hit the root, the foundation, God first.
Speaker B:And a lot of them are open to it because it ain't coming in a basic preacher type of forceful.
Speaker B:Yeah, it's not come.
Speaker B:It's coming in a way of they understanding and coming with scripture.
Speaker B:That's not basic.
Speaker B:That's going, oh, I never even read that scripture or even heard that scripture.
Speaker B:And then breaking down in layman's terms on, you know, what to do next, each step, instead of, like, you know, you just got to have the right mind.
Speaker B:Like, they don't know what the right mind is.
Speaker B:What does it mean?
Speaker A:So.
Speaker B:Right, right.
Speaker B:And they.
Speaker B:They don't have time to, because their brains are going everywhere and they're influenced the moment you leave, they're influenced by where they're going back to.
Speaker B:You know what I mean?
Speaker B:That's like the parable of the seeds.
Speaker B:You know what I mean?
Speaker B:You can plant the seeds all you want, but the devil is the bird, he gonna come and sweep that seed off and take that right away from you.
Speaker B:So if it ain't landed on good soil in your mind, that good ground in your mind, that soil, for it to reach, get down, and then create a harvest, then it was just for nothing.
Speaker B:You know what I mean?
Speaker B:So I try to make sure that I keep throwing seeds, though, to where I know it hits, and then it's gonna grow.
Speaker B:And it has.
Speaker B:I like that, you know?
Speaker B:So, yes, our nonprofit, we lead ours in Oakland, we low shout out to Lamont Robinson, Trustin George, my brothers, you know.
Speaker B:And then, you know, I do at Calvary Youth in Sacramento, shout out to Nehemiah Godot and the Godot family.
Speaker B:For there.
Speaker B: g and helping with them since: Speaker B:So it's really a breakdown from one to start from how to start your business.
Speaker B:What business is all about how to be an entrepreneur.
Speaker B:Credit, business credit, how to go to the banks using not just information, but also showing them that, look, it ain't just the information.
Speaker B:I'm going to help you do it personally.
Speaker B:I have brothers like Will Roundtree, as you know, that you've met as well, who's going to give you the strategy of what to do.
Speaker B:And so we're doing it on a different wavelength of just not just trying to speak and motivate you.
Speaker B:I'm not here to just motivate you.
Speaker B:I'm here to.
Speaker B:I aspire to inspire.
Speaker B:So I'm going to inspire you, which is the root.
Speaker B:But I'm going to hold your hand and I'm going to walk you through.
Speaker B:Now if you pull your hand, that's on you, young blood.
Speaker B:And I pray that everything works out your way.
Speaker B:But if you down, oh, we going, we're going to make it happen.
Speaker B:And I'm going to make sure you got that shit on.
Speaker B:So you know, you know, if you look good, hey, you feel good and you attract.
Speaker B:When you feel good, you do good.
Speaker B:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:You attract money.
Speaker B:When you look like money, you attract money.
Speaker B:And eventually you fake it till you make it, and then next, you know, it ain't fake no more.
Speaker B:You got that money.
Speaker A:Well, listen, I know one thing.
Speaker A:Last year, you know, you've donated a couple outfits to my youth that were in a program, gentlemen.
Speaker A:And that's what we're trying to work on is teaching our youth etiquette.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:I love how you're presented yourself today.
Speaker A:I mean, you just always dipped.
Speaker B:Thank you.
Speaker A:You should have been a strawberry.
Speaker A:We just need a bucket of chocolate in this.
Speaker B:Well, I'm chocolate, so, you know, that's dip right there.
Speaker A:We gonna dip you.
Speaker A:Cause literally every time I see you, don't miss a heartbeat.
Speaker B:Thank you.
Speaker A:And I think men need to know because, you know, I'm sure you see, how do you feel when you see them youngsters with their pants on their kneecaps with a wife beater?
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Like, they, I think a lot of, a lot of men don't know how to present themselves.
Speaker A:And even I've learned, like when we have kids and we got job, you know, trainings for them and things like that, they show up, they don't have no etiquette.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Like what would you teach them?
Speaker A:How would you teach them what?
Speaker A:On how to present yourself as a man.
Speaker A:A gentleman first and a God fearing man in East Oakland.
Speaker B:Well, first, that's a great question.
Speaker B:First of all, one thing that's.
Speaker B:We come from two different eras.
Speaker B:Although it was sagging back in the days, but OGs had a grip more on the streets.
Speaker B:They've lost the grip.
Speaker B:There is no grip.
Speaker B:No more technology.
Speaker B:A lot of our soldiers in the street is in jail.
Speaker B: s, doing: Speaker B:And for that, you know, the youth is lost.
Speaker B:I mean Psalms 11:3 says, if the foundation be destroyed, what is the youth to do?
Speaker B:So the foundation is the males, females, the mothers, the fathers, the uncles, the grandfathers.
Speaker B:And if they're destroyed, they're removed, they're going to jail, they're dying on the street.
Speaker B:What is the youth to do?
Speaker B:What is the children to do?
Speaker B:You know, so that's what's happening.
Speaker B:The devil's playing the game.
Speaker B:Whether you want to play it or not.
Speaker A:That's just facts.
Speaker B:I mean, that's just facts.
Speaker B:We in the game.
Speaker B:No matter if you want to play it or want to be naive to it, want to act like doesn't matter, you in the game and the devil going to play the game.
Speaker B:So that's what's happening.
Speaker B:And when I see kids that have their pants down, depends on what it is.
Speaker B:Sometimes I don't say nothing.
Speaker B:Cause sometimes you can say something and it's the wrong time.
Speaker B:And if you ain't got time to keep talking and you just saying, hey, put your pants up, you keep on going.
Speaker B:You can mess around and get your head knocked off for real.
Speaker B:Cause it was just the wrong day.
Speaker B:I got my pants down by the same time I didn't eat yesterday day for yesterday.
Speaker B:My mom feeling this way on drugs, doing this, doing that.
Speaker B:So I grew up in a drug environment.
Speaker B:My parents did drugs, you know what I'm saying?
Speaker B:So I've been in foster homes, you know, so I understand it, you know what I mean?
Speaker A:Really?
Speaker A:I didn't know that, brother.
Speaker B:Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker B:Although my mother was a police officer.
Speaker B:That was before I was born.
Speaker B:But you know, due to the dope era, not knowing what drugs cocaine, crack is, you know, just trying it.
Speaker B:Party drug, you try that, you hooked, lost her career, you know.
Speaker B:And it's not just to drugs is more other things that came to that.
Speaker B:But you know, once she did lose it, the Career, you know, it got bad.
Speaker B:You know, the addiction and stuff like that.
Speaker B:You know, my dad dibbled with it and everything as well.
Speaker B:So, you know, I understand that world.
Speaker B:You know, I understand what it feels like to lose a parent.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:To lose a. Yeah.
Speaker B:Lose a parent.
Speaker B:I understand what it feels like to go without before.
Speaker B:You know what I mean?
Speaker B:And I don't blame my parents for it.
Speaker A:Absolutely not.
Speaker B:In college, I searched what the drug does and I understand they became zombies.
Speaker B:That's not their fault.
Speaker B:They didn't know.
Speaker B:So that helped me heal, they helped me forgive.
Speaker B:To know that, oh, you didn't know you wasn't yourself.
Speaker B:It makes sense.
Speaker B:But she beat it.
Speaker B:That's what a queen does.
Speaker A:Absolutely.
Speaker B:She beat it.
Speaker B:She's been clowned for three decades.
Speaker B:So we're not talking about, you know, a few years.
Speaker B:She didn't.
Speaker B:Mom's cleaned up, used her master degree, went back on the main line, got on the state and retired early.
Speaker B:She's a bad.
Speaker B:She's a bad, bad, bad woman right there.
Speaker A:And she supported my.
Speaker A:She came to my.
Speaker B:Yes, she did.
Speaker A:My prom event for the youth.
Speaker A:She made.
Speaker A:Let me tell you something about these devil eggs scrimps on it.
Speaker B:Oh, man, come on.
Speaker A:They ain't ready for them devil eggs for the scrimps and the chicken on it.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Mom's donated her time and asked for a dog.
Speaker A:She came and spent her time with my f and she had a blast.
Speaker B:Yeah, she told me she had a blast.
Speaker B:She was so cute.
Speaker A:She was out there dancing.
Speaker A:She had a good time.
Speaker A:So I appreciate that.
Speaker B:Oh, absolutely, 100%.
Speaker A:So I'm gonna ask you this and then we'll wrap this up.
Speaker A:What would you tell my foster?
Speaker A:You being that you came from that era, being that, you know, you come from a parent that did actually get lost to the streets of cocaine or whatever drug they decided to use, and then a gangster on the other side.
Speaker A:What would you tell my foster?
Speaker A:You being that to me, from my eyes, you made it out.
Speaker A:What would you tell them to help them make it out?
Speaker B:One of the things I would say is, you gotta get grounded foundation.
Speaker B:For me, it was God.
Speaker B:I always searched God.
Speaker B:It was this Bible in my grandparents house.
Speaker B:Don't touch that book.
Speaker B:Don't touch that.
Speaker B:Which made me like, what's in the book?
Speaker B:You know, so I always been searching for God.
Speaker B:You know, I Jehovah witnessed before in junior high.
Speaker B:I didn't care about Christmas and none of the holidays, you know, just searching.
Speaker B:Who was this God that everyone's looking at, you know, I been around a lot of Asians and stuff growing up in Hayward and been around, you know, people that was Buddhist.
Speaker B:I loved it, you know, positive teaching and all that type of stuff.
Speaker B:And then I just started reading.
Speaker B:Keep reading.
Speaker B: and he taught me the word in: Speaker B:But to that youth, to that, to that person is find God first and have the want to.
Speaker B:That you got to have that want to.
Speaker B:You got to have that want to.
Speaker A:You have.
Speaker B:Because if you ain't got that want to, it ain't going to really work, you know, so you got to have that want to and find a mentor.
Speaker B:Find a mentor.
Speaker B:Someone that's going to hold you accountable and lock in.
Speaker A:Period.
Speaker B:Lock in.
Speaker B:It ain't going to happen.
Speaker B:Quick it to get where I'm at right now has taken over two decades.
Speaker A:Well, where you see yourself in five years, brother?
Speaker B:In five years.
Speaker A:Besides my personal style as I'm a resident.
Speaker A:Oh, God.
Speaker B:And you do know that.
Speaker B:And you do know that.
Speaker B:Besides that, really just really taking the entrepreneur program with the youth hopefully all through Alameda County, Contra Costa, and just really teaching that program while also teaching how to style, how to dress where I'm at in my fashion.
Speaker B:I got here faster than I thought I would because I'm here.
Speaker B:I mean, I'm successful at runs itself.
Speaker B:So this is going to keep going.
Speaker B:And so my biggest dreams that I wrote down and this is for the youth as well.
Speaker B:This is a gym.
Speaker B:Write down and make it plain what you want to do.
Speaker B: In: Speaker B:And so that's the next move that God is allowing open.
Speaker B:So it was fashion and be one of the best fashions that you can.
Speaker B:Fashion stylist, you can be designer all in one.
Speaker B:You know, I traveled the world and learned this.
Speaker B:I worked some of the best companies and fashion in the world.
