Rich and Rell talk with Entrepreneur, Emcee, DJ, Actor and Owner of Burn Rubber Detroit and Two 18 Boutique, Roland “RO SPIT” Coit to discuss why his mental (health) matters for his family and loved ones along with how his love for community, music and fashion helped bring the Air Jordan 2 x Two18 to life.

Get that unseasoned nonsense out of here. We destress about why unseasoned people, places and things are not allowed in the culture. This is a unpacking and de-stress episode.

There’s some Kanye West stuff (sorry in advance but his cultural disrespect had to be addressed ONCE and for ALL), how Adidas shouldn’t touch anything from Wakanda, and some shoe things to help give us some destressing.
