Man, this song is so ill. Our bro Jabee is gearin up for his new project titled, “Lucky Me”. Here is a snippet of things to come. Be sure to check more heat from this midwest beast on mics. FLY OR DIE.
We are working so hard on the VOLUME 3 drop, and in our preparation we want to hook up all the supporters of the brand and movement. We are slashing every price to $12.99 (plus shipping). Tees will go fast, so be up early to get your orders popping at 1AM THIS SATURDAY MORNING. FLY OR DIE!!! VOLUME 3 COMING SOON.
Our good buddies over at Tree and Leaf Clothing hosted an epic art show “Rollin Deep” on May 8th. Not only are they our exclusive screen-printers for our Season 3 drop, they are also super rad individuals. This show exhibited several high-end street artists from every OKC borough. The homey TruDust and Ryan “StaplesX2″ Scott put this excellent video together to showcase the event. Check out me and the dudes Chris Cao and Jabee looking all serious on camera. We are secretly working on some HUGE limited collab tees with a couple of these artist for winter 2010 and Summer 2010. FLY OR DIE KIDS.

Man, our big homey and team rider Thug Nasty aka “Steezus Christ” over at STUDIO aka Ridefourever has been getting mad love for his vlog (video+blog). He has been breaking down the new shop exclusives, and giving us the viewer a detailed inside look of all the new sneakers carried by our good friends at STUDIO. Plus!!!!, he is reppin the brand to the fullest. Don’t sleep…STUDIO is an exclusive online carrier for GRP FLY, basically if we are soldout of a style in our webstore be sure to peep their online stock they may still have your size. This fall we will be putting out a collab project with this premiere Kansas City skate boutique. FLY OR DIE.

“What’s Good on the Streets” w/ Thug Nasty vol. 3 from Studio Skate Supply on Vimeo.
I was in my studio brainstorming on how I could move some extra inventory. Sooooooo… this past weekend, I had the crazy idea to do some hand to hand $10 delivery drops to some of our favorite clients. I love the organic feel of just slangin tees out the back of the car trunk, it is such a rush!!!! I love being in the streets creating awareness and building customers for the brand. I met up with “OKC’s General” J. Poe of The Sav Squad/Puzzle People, my good friend Paul and the lil homey Miko. Here are some pics of the happenings. FLY OR DIE.
J.Poe and his lady copped like 7 tee’s!!! What recession?????!!!!!!!!!! The General has been reppin our brand hard. He handles a lot of the promotions for OKC’s premiere hip hop acts such as SAV SQUAD. Look out because this crew is mad hungry and they are puttin’ in work for the STREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETS!!!!!!!
Miko has been wanting to cop some new tees for a while now. He comes to all the shows at Sauced downtown and is starting to become “A PROBLEM” himself on the mic as well. He was stoked on the “HAND TO HAND” delivery because he rocks that straight cash flow and not the credit or debit yet. I see you homey!!!!
Me and Paul go way back. He has a really creative mindset when it come to concepts and film. He is currently workin with music and prepping the groundwork to launch his film company SCOPE8.
Everyone in my squad knows that I have benn obsessing the past two years about building a fixed gear bike. I have actually been trying to save up for a good road bike as well, but every time I go to buy one the cards just don’t work out. Recently a good buddy of mine hooked me up with one of his old bikes he had laying around. All week long I have been on my “Negro Lance Armstrong” everyday around my hood. So here it is… my future GRP FLY fixie!!!! I am going to be working on this project all fall and winter. Until then watch out for me on your block!!!!
Here are some of my many inspirations for the build, I am looking to keep it clean and classic. I am leaning towards a powder white frame with black accents. I may just keep it ultra gangsta and do flat black with white/gold accents. STREEEEEEEEEETS!!!!!!!

I have been wanting to post this for a while now!!! Danielle always holds us down out west in Phoenix. She is a creative individual that is full of life. A few months ago she got some tattoo work done that we were soooo stoked on. Our brand is all about a movement that elevates individuals to pursue their dreams and goals…SO WHY NOT GET A ‘TATT’ THAT REPS THIS IDEA - FLY OR DIE!!!! Danielle what up!!!!!! Who knows… I might get tatted’ up with some GRP FLY WINGS soon!
I got my “Fly or Die” tattoo in December 2008 // “You have two choices in life, Fly or Die”
-Danielle // Phoenix, Arizona
We are so hyped that people are feeling the movement and the brand. By the way we are also really feeling the way you flipped the tee!!! Custom ladies tees in volume 3? STREEEEEEEEEEETS!

Man I was goin through my over-crowded closet and thought to myself…THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!! I have like 40 pairs of sneakers and barely wear half of them. So I am finally going to sell some of my deadstock premium sneakers to you at the request of my beautiful wife. Have fun with this one, all sneaks are size 13. Who knows I might even throw in a tee or two. FLY OR DIE!!!!!!!
