Fashion in general is volatile, and black fashion in particular has extremely limited shelf life. People say hip hop is faddish, but really it's black culture that's faddish. Black people are conditioned to represent our block and our hood, and once the mainstream catches on, we quickly create a new fad to represent our home. For example, if we're rocking Fubu on Third Ave, eventually Fifth Ave is gonna be rocking Fubu. Then all of Queens is rocking Fubu. Then all NYC, then the Midwest and eventually South and West Coast. At each stage, the original progenitors of Fubu are dropping off because it's no longer their style, unique to their hood. By the time LA is rocking Fubu, the Bronx is on Champion gear and Lugz. The only way to make money in black fashion is to realize you have a small window of appeal. Once you start making big money when your brand goes nationwide, you have about 90 days to sell that brand while it's profitable and start a new company. When you start expanding and doing formal and womens wear, you're never going to recoup that cost. Get out before your brand ends up in Wal-Mart.

I used to call on FuBu when I sold media in the 90s. Daymond, J Martin, Carl, and Keith deserved every bit of success they received. They out-hustled, outworked, and out-maneuvered every sportswear company in that space. They were EVERYWHERE: MAGIC, The Source Awards, industry parties, fashion shows, etc. Flying to LA to drop off product for music video shoots. They were the first urban/sportswear company to do 7th on 6th fashion shows. They met Mandela in South Africa. They developed relationships with everyone: fashion editors, stylists, the dept. store CEOs, the garmentos. etc. Black, white, Asian, Jewish, etc. If you went to their Empire State Building showroom, it was a mini-United Nations buzzing with activity. One person worth mentioning is Leslie Short. She worked at FuBu for years and played a pivotal role in marketing, relationship building, enhancing FuBu's image, coaching Daymond (to an extent) to be TV ready, etc. LOVE this video. Thank you!

If it werent for his mother, he may have never seen his dream come true. Black single moms get trashed so much by black men but they never give credit to the plethora of single moms who were behind their child's success, and there were MANY. Most single moms are good mothers but in the black community, the parent who stayed and didnt run away from their responsibilities like a coward get disrespected daily. Shout out to the single mothers who do that thankless job, every damn day, bc they dont have a choice. There most black children grow up fatherless, therefore, most successful black men and women were raised by a single mother. I know that's not an easy job, bc it's not even easy when the father IS around, so I cant even imagine how heavy the load is, for a woman to hv to carry the man's burden. I have eternal love and respect for single mothers, of all races.

I hope you continue to cover these clothing brands. Would love a follow up on Sean Jean, Roc-A-Wear, Ecko, Karl Kani, etc. 100 bonus points if you do a video on No Limit Wear and Master P’s converse show deal 😂😂😂

Im confused by the designer brands and Timberland thing. Couldnt they just kinda wear em anyway? Either way, I work with a 55 yr old white man with a mullet that mainly only wears fubu, especially the jerseys lol.

LOL....saw the title of this video which made me laugh. Another one of those! Actually FUBU isn't dead and it was sold but Damien has the license and sells clothes in other countries where its still popular. Somebody needs to watch more shark tank.

I remember when FUBU first became popular around NYC. I wasn't aware of many things FUBU became because it wasn't the clothes I was buying or wearing. It was not advertised in the magazines I sometimes looked at. Glad to know FUBU is still around.

It didn't matter what gang or rap set they were with it seemed like everyone in the rap/hip hop world would more than likely have maybe 2 or 3 shirts 5 or so hats and multiple shoes
