This was a really cool competition. It would be nice to see them create a part 2 to this with them finding different ways to advertise and actually sell their brand. Great work!

That's great we need a show for the Tshirt Designer.

I love the message of “We come from kings and queens” That focus on the positive aspects of black history can change the whole dynamics of the future. That $10 budget was killer! The creativity of dumpster diving and stencil painting has rich history! What a shoutout to John!

Always check for "no trespassing" signs & carry a copy of your states statutes on trespassing & yep definitely put thrash back inside.

So I was utilizing Custom Ink! However, I was doing a fundraiser. I do mines how they did my shirts. But, buying from them to do my work is hell of expensive. I believe in my ideas abs wood like to try my hand at this.

I think everyone was pretty creative and winners in my eyes too. This was a very cool video to watch, keep it up! 👌👌

The key is open a KZread channel and start making videos and when you got fans you can create the clothing brand. Thats the way all youtubers do.

Not here to harp, just saying, I heavily feel that this challenge was poorly judged. Cody was the most resourceful for only spending 4 dollars and Melissa should have had best message for being unbiased and based around a world wide holiday. Agaziy should of got creativity and design for how he implemented the tigray culture into 3 different pieces and allowed for other influence to be involved with the designs. I agree with Melissa being the winner but we all know that just because you got the same answer doesn't mean the math was right. Idk let me know if I'm wrong, just thought they judged 'em a little weird.

The plot twist when they eliminated Cody 😂
