In Episode 39 of Folarin's podcast 'Go With the Flo’, I had the chance to share my journey from being an overlooked outsider artist to carving my niche in the very competitive art world.Richard Cave made an unforgettable statement in his 'Since the Beginning' custom suit jacket by Hallamoda
The Carimi Reunion at UBS Arena on December 27th was nothing short of historic, marking the much-anticipated return of the iconic group formed by Mickeal Guirand, Karlo Vieux, and Richard Cave after an eight-year hiatus. The atmosphere was electric as fans gathered to celebrate their beloved music, which has been a source of joy and connection for so many.
I've known Johnny for some time now, and our relationship goes beyond mere acquaintance—there's a genuine bond and mutual respect rooted in our shared values. Johnny’s dedication to his vision and the spirit he brings to his work have always resonated with me, and being in attendance of his showcase was an honor.
Last Month, I got to link up with the NYC Bronx Born artist 'Scar Lip' at SOB's for her performance with the Youniteam, rolling deep with our new PR Woman, Tammi Noelle Taylor, Chief Editor of TO+NY Magazine, Mari J and sharpshooter photographer Ralphy Clouds. 'This Is New York' artist has been the driving force of our city and has inspired some of my latest fashion and art creations, bringing back memories of the hustle and grind that shaped me into who I am today.
Last month, fellow Morgan Jesse Lapin, Daze, Ralphy, and I set up shop for a pop-up in Brooklyn, kickstarting the first "May•Hem" event. It's a grind, man, not just about lookin' cool, but about the light we bring into this world.
During my visit to CAM's studio in DUMBO before his event with bespoke furniture company Mark Jupiter, Mari J and I had the opportunity to witness the seamless collaboration between them.
Y'all ain't gonna believe the epic time the 'Youniteam' and yours truly, Mr. Moda, had jammin' with the Jungle God at Bluepoint in Long Island. We were livin' it up with RSNY MUSIC and the one and only reggae legend Shaggy at the 4/20 Smoke Festival. Ahhh a random highlight of mine was seeing B.O.B. and him then proceeding to do a series of acrobats. I will never forget that. Also bringing my partner Deb, and her getting to see Mr. Boombastic himself! Him performing a nostalgic favorite ‘Oh' Carolina’ was unexpected! Mann, Shaggy is an embodiment of black artistry, swagger and panache!! Feel me?? I look forward to what he will do with Jungle, inshallah.
It is our responsibility to inform our supporters that Mr. Moda may be dealing with BPD and looking to go under a scientific study. Unfortunately our ‘Mr.Moda’ has been malfunctioning and we need to get him the best help possible. Let’s hope for the best we are all pushing to see a swift a recovery. Please, if you too are having mental episodes, stress, anxiety or deal with any past traumatic experiences, please reach out to the nearest mental health facility or group. You are loved and WE all want to see THE BEST VERSION OF YOU!

As a seasoned painter diving into the realm of AI art, I was pleasantly surprised by the creative synergy between technology and MY artistic vision. Embracing this new medium led me to embark on a whimsical journey. So, in celebration of Women's History, culminating in a captivating series where I re-envisioned myself as the exquisite 'Mrs. Moda'!

Peacepeace PEACE!! To ALL my New Yorkers (old and NEW😂) keepin’ it real out here in the concrete jungle, listen up! It’s about supporting the movement to Make New York Grimey Again, straight like that WORD!. We gotta hold it down for the city that birthed hip hop, the culture that defines us, ya know? We can't let our rich history go soft in the shine of all this glitz and glam.
From the boogie-down Bronx through Brooklyn’s own down to the pits of Far Rockaay, we gotta stay YOUNITED JU HEARD, stay true to our roots. Let's keep it ONE THOUSAND- the grit, the edge, the realness? That’s what makes NYC what it is.
So next time you walk these streets, remember where we came from, remember the struggle and the hustle. Let’s preserve this VIBE, this flavor that's uniquely OURS. It’s time to rep our city, New York, and keep it grimey, keep it RAW. That’s what sets us apart, that’s what makes us who we are.

HIP HOP LEGEND RAB BAKARI
One of my first influences growing up, my cousin Rab Bakari was always a very worldly person. When i was about 11, he used to tease my brother about how close minded to things beyond ourselves. Especially growing up in Queens, i can only imagine how much it truly irked his soul watching us eat sandwiches for dinner every night lol.
He later took us to our first comic convention where i then was introduced to the world of anime, special edition merchandise/artworks and all sorts of collectables that i could believe existed. Not only that he was a b-boy, DJ and even had graffiti in 5 points! Later he moved to Ghana to further purse his life and career goals and man i was RIGHT behind him.
i write this now with a bit of salt in my heart, i know i could have been more outspoken to wards my family. With all the devastation in and out of my life my focus has been more on my work. And Everyday I am learning to divide my time… i hope i have enough time to make all the things right.. To make SURE the people i love, know that i love them back.
Many Blessings To Him And His Closest Family And Friends.
Special Thank To My Cousin Dj Cool Flex For the Footage And Material.
