The End.: Recognize A Real Woman.

Monday

Recognize A Real Woman.

Sighting: Brooke at the premiere of BET’s “Harlem Heights” premiere party at The Apollo Theatre last night.

So if you follow LeBoots you'll know that I been asking for a show like this and it finally came, I love BET's Harlem Heights. Im so glad they are showing young people on the go mode-who actually have jobs and careers. Think The City but Uptown. The women I adore, the fashions give me more ( it rhymed, let me have it ) and the gentlemen's hustle is something to follow. I sat glued to my dvr playing rewind with the remote, I pretty much love everything about the show and when Brooke tipped into that party she became my love.

What motivates you to get out of bed and be on your grind each day?
I see so many young(er) people making all the money nowadays, like big money, I’m not talking allowance. It used to be that you worked a lifetime to reach your peak of success, and that it was acceptable to be 20-something, 30-something still not having made it. Now, you have 17-year old producers, 20-something big business owners, 30-something moguls, who are millionaires! So to wake up in the morning at 27 years old, I feel like I’m on the older side of the equation, and I have to play catch up…

I digs it. I fu*ks wit her. For more on Brooke and the show, click here

She likes BKC. I like Epiphany.

I think it's very important to surround yourself with a positive team of people. Fresh ideas are always grown. It's such an organic feeling when you've found your inner circle. Who do you influence?

She likes BBC. I like Lanvin.

We're back at it again. Another year a harder hustle. 2 different coast. New York-our future home. Atlanta-our playground. Sham & I work together because we are so different. She's has the swagg and I have the in your face attitude. It's the perfect mix. She's simple. Im complex. We never try too hard. All this comes natural.

She likes Pharrell. I like Kanye.

Sham & I met almost 2 years ago. From that moment I knew we would be partners in this game. I remember our first meeting, it was at a photoshoot for LateBoots. I walked in the room and said "hi Sham it's nice to finally meet you", then we just went to work. It was so natural.

She's Edie. Im Andy.

Since we are a duo so many people say we remind them of Edie Sedgwick & Andy Warhol. She's the girl everybody likes. Im the guy that everybody loves to hate. Im cocky, arrogant, an asshole at times yet she is the georgia peach. She really isn't. I just get blamed for everything because Im the obvious bad guy. She is worse than me.

She's Brooklyn. Im Harlem.

Summer '08 we both interned in New York. She did Complex and I was at GIANT Magazine. I stayed in Harlem and she was in Brooklyn. She hated coming to Harlem and I hated going all the way out to BK. For our move to NYC we're gonna share an apartment, we're tossing a coin to determine where we'll stay.

She likes Michael. I like Prince.

We always argue who's the best performer out of the two. I believe Prince was for obvious reasons. He had swagg, what man do you know can get away with wearing heels and make-up? If you ask me Michael did all of that work to his face so he could look like Prince.

She likes Nike. I like YSL.

I once tried to buy a pair of Nike sneakers but they were to boyish for me. Trade is what you call it. Nike called up Sham and she went to New York to make her very own sneaker. It was dope. I would wear it. But instead I purchased some YSL sneakers. I like YSL.

She likes Marc Jacobs. I like Genevieve Jones.

I first saw Jones on style.com, I was like who is this skinny black girl tipping around New York. She's so chic. When Sham & I were in New York this past summer she actually met Jones at an event. I was sick because I should've been the one in the picture.
