Hood Luv Clothing Company

Bigthink — Sat, 03 May 2008 09:28:59 +0100

Hood Luv Clothing Company ™ is the brand name for the revolutionary clothing company started and owned by own young entrepreneur Kareem Janey. At first assumption of the name, one might say that there is nothing revolutionary about an Urban style brand name. However Hood Luv encompasses more than just the logo of Kareem’s market changing clothing line. With the mission of spreading knowledge through innovative clothing designs that ignite through, positively, and well being, Kareem’s (and in effect Hood Luv’s) aim is to provide a distinctive high quality clothing line to the Urban Market, that promotes community, culture and unity, while fulfilling the design and aesthetics of the Urban Market. Kareem describes the company’s mission as “to celebrate the spectrum of cultures and heritages in America and around the world.” Kareem settled on the name Hood Luv, while on tour in Atlanta in 1996. It was here that the inner city’s support and brotherhood for a young black man’s hustle opened Kareem’s eyes to the “unity and Luv that is often not portrayed and thus forgotten about in our communities.” Hood Luv truly embodies one man’s hustle to spread love in his community through honest hard work. Kareem purchased his first order of clothing through money made from selling mix tapes of his own music. With successful sales in ‘test markets’ of select retailers here in Boston since 2005, Washington DC’s Howard Homecoming in Fall 2006, and Heir Apparel’s holiday fashion boutique show in LA’s famous garment district last year, Hood Luv has successfully established itself as a must to have addition to anyone’s wardrobe. “There really is no love like Hood Luv,” says Kareem. Starting on the coasts, Hood Luv will be taking over the stores this summer with shirts of Hood Luv Boston, What Hood™ New York, and Cali Luv™.
Along with an eye on the fashion industry, Hood Luv’s young, multi-talented CEO is also taking over the music industry.

What intangible asset actually capitializes all regional currencies?

Bigthink — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 12:41:31 +0100

Breath is the primary capital in your life. Without your breath, what else matters? What is wealth and success without your Breath? What is a business or organization without the breath of the individuals working for it?

We explore this idea as a solution to poverty embodied in a project being developed for the world starting with Jamaica.

This piece is called: Your Breath and the Breathing Universe

In my art series Cultural Fusion the work evolves from collaborations, either in the creative process or through the fusion of ideas/concepts which define authentic culture. I present an alternative view of culture not defined by nationality, race, etc. This is a result of the Cultural Fusion:Breathing project series within Cultural Fusion.
