Well I Guess Here Goes Nothing

Since this is the first post i’ll try my hardest to make this one nice, long and elaborate and not short, meaningless and humorless like the rest of the blogs you will see from here on out by me.
For those that are unfamiliar and stumbled upon this Blog by accident i’d like to welcome you  to U.T.B. My name is Andre, nobody calls me that besides my professors and my Mom. Alot of people call me different names but the most common name is Biggity. Alright enough about me there will be plenty more posts about me in the near future, though I’d like to stray away from that and write about friends, family and influences, besides we’re all human and self promotion is…..well….human nature :-)

I have no clue where to start.
Ummm. May 21st, 2007 everything came together about this idea  i had about starting a clothing line, I was just on my Computer looking at popular brands that filled my closet and I  thought to myself, I wonder how they came up with that. Starting a clothing line has been a dream of mine for a while now. Probably a couple years now but I didn’t think the time was right until now. I contacted my boy Reem aka Reem.Heff on aim and told him I wanted him to model some of my stuff once I got started. Yes the tats influenced my biased decision to pick him to model but I think that was one of the best “NO HOMO” moments in my life. Reem is a prolific artist and his mind is  some thing else. I told him what I wanted to do, a couple ideas I had and the brainstorming began. I’d send all my friends ideas on aim and get feedback. Reem and I found our niche with the whole “Money Tree” idea and we ran with it.

I wish i could write everything that took place from then to now but thats just too much to write.
I ended up researching and hitting up some of the brands i liked on Myspace.Shouts out to “Bobby Hundreds” I swear I asked dude ever possible question ever and he never ignored one message. Thats a real dude right there, already had a “HUGE” brand and took time out to holla at me probably a couple times a day for close to three weeks. I got mad respect for that guy and I keep that same helpful mentality when people send me messages, aims and emails. Shouts out to everyone that replied to any message I sent. 

Anyways ima finish watching Ohio St get smacked by LSU
Peace & Love
