Hov’s Day 1 being interviewed about his own business moves and building his own empire. 50’s day 1 yayo keep talking about 50 and waiting for 50 to take him to Dubai. And talk about old stories that they didn’t do shit in. Levels to this shit

I mean c’mon guys….Emory came home to a very unique situation. Roc Nation and his best friend being Jay Z. It’s much easier to change your life when you have those things working for you.

But you also have a lot more likely chance to fold under the pressure to be great and successful. You’d be surprised at how many people actually fear their own potential, especially when they feel the pressure to be as great as their opportunities. People fear failing in the eyes of greatness and opportunity. Sure he had a unique situation, but so did Dame Dash, Beanie Siegel, The Young Gunz, Oschino & Sparks, Peedi Crakk, Indy 500, Teairra Marie, Young Steff, Christion, Amil, B!nk, Duro, Foxy Brown, Get Low. All had the connection to Jay Z and Roc-A-Fella to capitalize on the association. Same with everyone connected to Diddy and Bad Boy. Sometimes the spotlight is too bright for some.

Based on your statement Beanie Siegel’s career should be similar to Emory’s, he had those same things working for him. Da hustle and ambition is in you not on you
If you’re from New York City and you’re from GenX you should know that the suede Clyde Puma was a hip hop b-boy classic sneaker! It’s disheartening that so many people in these big positions on radio and television don’t have a deep sense of history about the culture. It was Pro Keds, Pumas, Adidas, Nike AF1 and then Jordans. If you were really getting money in the streets and depending where you’re from it became Fila, Ellesse, Diadora, New Balance 995 and 1300, Bally and Gucci. 💯

Yo the Shoe concept is dope! Emory got vision, he know what he doing.
If you think about it, Jay Z had other friends he came up with that didn’t put the work in like Emory Jones to be in a similar position. He still had to hustle since nothing is a given. Having Jay Z as your best friend could bring more pressure to put the work in and everyone not gonna be able to do that
Puma was a staple of my childhood, being from the south. Thanks for bringing the culture back, Emory.
Emory is the other side of the coin. With all the hate that Hov receive's. He still has a core base of friends that are doing very well for them selfs.

the industry devalues our brands after they buy us out, drop the price and put them in ross, marshals and tj maxx
Two guys can walk in the same spot wearing the same exact color jacket but one has LV all over it and the other has RW (Rocawear) all over it and 90% of the people there will gravitate more to the guy with the LV instead of the guy wearing the RW. The illusion of a product being more exclusive than another is the driving factor. LV and RW or another brand can be manufactured in the same factory by the same people using the same material and even have the same price and LV will always get the nod simply because of the illusion it's a more exclusive brand than the other mentioned. IMO....

I love hearing interviews like this, a former street dude,who transitioned away and learned from their mistakes. A lot of the jewels they learned after the fact was instilled in me at a young age so that I wouldn’t have to go through what they went through. It just confirms us “civilians” are on the right path.
Love hearing Emory talk
Great conversation! Glad Emory has been able to continue to build and grow his own thing. Man, I love the idea of the sneakers and content…those laces.🙌🏾 I pre-saved the mixtape to hear Rapsody and Vince Staples. So true about Nip and that tracksuit lolol!

"You gotta earn that space."- Emory Jones
Much love to Emory "Vegas" Jones and the Breakfast Club.
I’m so blessed to have had quality time with Emory. Hours, days and years we spent together and he’s taught me by his actions. It just felt different than being around him, vs the ordinary individual, where his wisdom fed me. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am, with the achievements I’ve earned if it wasn’t for his leadership, his voice and his investment/putting his money where his mouth is. #salute #emoryjones

“Snatched my nigga Emory, tried to get him to tell about me. He told 12 give me 12, he told em’ GO TO HELL bout me” - Jay Z x Drug Dealers Anonymous
Man, those suede Puma classics with fat shoelaces was everything in the early 80’s. Puma was the official sneaker of hip hop and being a B-Boy, wtf is Envy talking about.
Hello, I’ve been a jay z fan since a kid, I’m 27 now. There’s a early photo of Emory and jay z together I saw it on this song called broken English

I’m sorry but I have to respectfully disagree with Emery on Envy’s statement about why blacks disregard black fashion designers after 2-4 years. As a people and culture, Black Americans don’t value themselves and hold what we create in high regard. Like CTG stated, we believe that the white mans ice is colder. Some of those high end fashion brands make garbage but if it’s a high end brand name, we will rock it no problem. Another point, MCM was out and smoking hot back in 1987 and 1988. If a girl kept her MCM bag at 17 and now she’s a grandmother today in her fifties, she can give that bag to her granddaughter and she’ll be the shit! Same bag, 35 years later! If I take my old Karl Kani jacket and give it to my grandson today, he won’t get the love I got back in 1994. Unfortunately that’s the sad truth.🤷🏽♂️ Kani and Sean John in particular still make dope clothes. Real Talk! 💯

First step to been a successful entrepreneur and businessman is "Picking the right team", which is as important to success. Emory/TyTy/B-High/James Brown/Lenny S are all integral part of Jay-Z's success. Hov can't do it alone. It's the team which brings the dream to life, learn that and it's taught in business school too.
Great interview 💎💎💎💎
The " this is who they/we are," commentary is really subjective; meaning based on his experiences. I proffer that the youth embracing under-culter (not sub-culture) is based on a consistent environment of no access to mainstream economy. Hip-hop culture is the legitimizing of creating an economy for Urban citizens. As it relates Dj Envy's question on brand trashing and the longevity of majore european brands is a continuation of everyone wanting to tap into dominant culture: we cannot be the color YT, but taking on the emblems of that culture shows an ascension into another economic strata. Hence the analogy of the rich(typically YT) wearing jeans torn sneakers, and driving Toyota's, while the less fortunate is dressed in and driving expensive brands: it's a sign-post of wealth attainment and a request to be accepted by the dominant culture. I hope as we move into this new era of Black/Urban love, we continue to uplift (purchase) brand made by those in the community.
Vegas Jones is one of the cleanest names!!
