I didn't go to school for fashion, I didn't have anybody to teach me anything about fashion - that's all I knew how to do, graphic design.

The thing is you can be a great designer but you can also be lazy or not understand the other person's preferences or be more concerned about being a star than being good at what you do.

I want to represent the street, not in a negative sense, but in the sense that when I was growing up, that's what I grew up on.

I wasn't able to afford high-end brands or any of that, so I grew up on streetwear.

I believe that if you work hard enough and do things the right way recognition will come.

Starting out is very difficult if you don't have a clientele.

I want to be recognized but I don't seek it out.
