Confirmed what I'd suspected for a long time...

Wanna know why there's a lot of red on the Makaveli Branded shit? Ever wondered why there's clothes with the Red bandana print on, but no blue Bandana print?

Afeni gave the design team specific instructions to include the flag, because of Tupac's blood affiliation. I'll quote the dude.

"Afeni wanted the clothes to rep pac to the fullest, so you got pictures from all across his career and of the course the red was a big thing that she wanted to see used. Niccas needed to put that shit on to get the spots in the Compton Swapmeet to sell it, because the M.O.B niccas don't like a lot of blue shit being sold up in there. We delivered a lot of the early designs direct to a lot of the niccas out there to see how they felt it. We had a couple hundred M.O.B niccas out there flaggin and shit and throwing the 2s up. Shit was dope. But yeah, you right homie, the red was definitely intended. If you go out to M.O.B Town you'll see some big ass murals, everyone remembers the big 'Live By the Gun' shit they did in NY, but the M.O.B niccas got some beautiful, beautiful murals up. Thing is not any nicca can walk through and take pictures. Things run a little different out there " - Rick Edwards

I know you've seen the white tee with 'Makaveli Branded' in red bandana print. All of the limited edition shit they did was red too.

thats a shame, i would like to see those
 
I never said they didn't have blue, I said the red was intended. The Limited Edition stuff was all red, the stuff at the launch party was all red and it was endorsed by his gang.

Suck my dick.
 
I remember me and my homeboys walked up to the Compton Swapmeet and got robbed by them MOB niggaz.

We were from a crip neighborhood and they found out because we told them we stayed by Dominguez high.


Anyway, All makaveli clothes dont have red in them, I ran across a few that had blue rags too.

Have I ever wondered that? No, because there are blue bandana print shirts, there are even brown ones.

Shut up, stop making shit up, Pac wasnt a blood, you dont have any connections in the streets, or Makaveli Branded for that matter. Stop coming into threads fronting like you know something, when you clearly dont. Your whole argument is based on a lie.

Oh and for the record, I know Rick Edwards, he doesnt talk like that, nor is he a designer for the label.

And come on, Afeni doesnt like Pac's thug mentality on songs, do you seriously think she'd cater towards bloods? Shut the fuck up.

THANK YOU!!:thumb:
 
Just had a quick word with Rick about some other business and mentioned this thread to him, here's part of his reply.

Yeah that blood thing is super stupid.

Thanks
