Throwback Thursday #tbt

That one time Obama sported a custom turtleneck back in college. It was our first custom piece at that.

Thank you Bama!!!

Before & After - Akepele Skate Decks 🛹

One super loved past time and my current love mixed into a product project. Skateboarding and @akepeleapparel.

I captured a bit of me putting the graphics on two of these skate decks. I didn’t have the tripod set up to film the application and cutting, that would have made good video. 🤣😂

Anyway, enjoy this quick video I made.

Song: Secret Rendezvous - Back In The Day (Remix).

THROWBACK Mixtape (Mix CD) inserts!!! 😱 Way ba

THROWBACK Mixtape (Mix CD) inserts!!! 😱

Way back in ‘08 when I first started pushing myself as a DJ, I recorded a mix/blend tape every few months. I’d burn them to CD and give them out to fellow dancers for their classes. I did a series called “I Can Make You Dance!” and this here was Volume 6. Each mix got better and the branding did too. I bought the CD Label Stomper, if you remember those. Lol

My first DJ name was Renie Ren, there’s a story behind it I’ll share another time. I felt this name had an old school early hip hop sound. Once I started to build my name more and lock down more gigs, I opted for a more refined name of Renz or Renzo. Still a play on my birth name,
T-REN-T. Get it?!? lol

Why do I have such a stack of these CD inserts still? Well, I only made about 50 or so copies of this mix and it was less expensive to order 500 “flyers” than just 50, so i had many leftover and since I keep everything…..I’m a hoarder for real. I can’t remember who designed this cover, it looks beyond my skill set for the time. Lol

A proper work station is key. When you feel comfortable, the creativity just flows. I love my office/studio space. It’s a creatives version of a man cave!!!
