Nyne Milli Is Perhaps The Freshest Man Alive When It Comes To Rocking Fly Shit. The Way He Matches And Color Coordinates His Attire From Head To Toe, And The Stylish Accessories To Compliment Them. We Decide To Have A Sit Down Talk With The SLC President And Get His Thoughts On The SLC Brand.

Street Life City 1: What Made You Decide To Get In The Fashion Industry After All These Years?

Nyne Millirachi 1: Well I always been a fly nigga, since I was a young teen; I was heavily influenced by the hip hop culture, especially growing up I seen how Biggie had niggas rocking the Coogie Sweater and hats, Jay-z had niggas rocking the Yankee Fitted and the Throwback Jerseys. Back then when I was growing up, if you ain’t had certain name brand shit, you was getting clowned, you couldn’t walk in the school without somebody noticing what you had on your feet or what outfit you rocked, if it wasn’t popular at the time or if it was a bullshit name brand, you was getting dissed. So I fell for the peer pressure and I started following the trends, back then niggas was wearing Boss, Mecca, Enyce, Akedemics, those were the top brands, so I always made sure I was up to par with those trends, and not only that I’m from Harlem, so it’s in our culture to be fly. You ain’t never heard of a bum that came from Harlem. But to answer your question, I got into fashion because I figure why make somebody else rich, when I can design the shit myself and make money out of it. As I got older, I realized why am I paying top dollar for these brands and they don’t give a fuck about black people. What do they do for the urban community, absolutely nothing. So basically I’m paying you to advertise your brand, what kind of backwards hustling is that. I will not build the Pyramids just for the oppressor to take credit off my blood sweat and tears, not me I’m too smart for the bullshit.

Street Life City 2: How Long Have You Been Designing Clothes And How Did You Become So Nice At It?

Nyne Millirachi 2: Well I’ve always been into animation and arts design. Ever since I was young, I played a lot of video games from Madden, to NBA 2K, to WWE Wrestling Games, I use to always create my own players and bring them into my vision. I just always had a fascination of creating things and bringing them to life. I use to like the 3D graphics of certain video games and how they made them look so realistic, and I went to a Science and Arts Fair back in elementary school, and when I saw the behind the scenes stuff they did, I was like yeah this shit is excitement at it’s finest. But it wasn’t until I saw the movie Avatar, that I realized I wanted to get into Arts business and capitalize off of it. And I design websites for a living, I create different themes, I choose the colors, create my own fonts, and draw my own logos, so it was only a matter of time that the fashion industry was gonna pull me in.

Street Life City 3: With The Pressure Of Your Highly Anticipated Album “Welcome To Street Life City” Will This Distract You From Working On Your Album And Will It Delay Your Album From Coming Out?

Nyne Millirachi 3: This Is How I Look At The Overall Of Everything; I Feel Like Nothing Or No One Can Distract You But Yourself. If You Are Very Focused And Have A Passion And Work Ethic, You Can Complete Every Task In A Timely Manner. Who Says I Can’t Multitask And Do Both. When I Was Working At Smashburger, I Use To Grill The Burger, Set The Bread, Fry The Chicken, Onion Rings, And Fries, While The Line Was Around The Corner, All This While I Had To Go To The Back And Get More Food If We Ran Out Supply, And Prep The Vegatables, And Do Dishes And Clean The Store All This While Getting Out At The Time I Was Scheduled To Leave The Store. When I Use To Hustle, I Had To Break Down The Pound, Crush It Up, Bag It To The Right Amount, Weigh It On The Triple Beam, And Wrap It Safely And Hide It, All This While Avoiding The Strong Smell Of Weed To Flow All Over The House, Even With The Crack, I Had To Make Sure There Was The Right Amount Of Baking Soda In The Coke, When I Was Cooking. So Please Don’t Tell Me About Pressure, Cause I Live That Life. I Can Meet Deadlines Under Extreme Measures. As Far As My Album, It’s On The Way, But I Want To Venture Off Into Other Things, Cause Now A Days, The Fans Want To Connect With You Personally, Music Is One Element, But There’s Other Avenues I Can Use To Explore And Showcase My Talent. I Don’t Want People To Just Look At Me As An MC, I Want Them To See My Other Talents, And When They See What Else I’m Good At, They Will Pay More Attention To Me. If I Can Multitask In Different Areas I Will Always Remain Relevant In The Urban Community.


Street Life City 4: When Will The Products Be Available And How Do You Plan To Compete With Other Urban Brands?

Nyne Millirachi 4: Well Right Now I’m In The Blueprint Phase, I’m Just Designing Different Fabrics And I’m Testing Them Digitally. I Got SLC Hats, Jeans, Jackets, Tshirts, I’m Also Working On Street Life Diva For The Ladies, I’m Designing Dresses, Leggings, Heels and Purses For Woman. But I’ve Been In Some Talks With Some Fashion Distributors And I’m Going To Bring The Drawing To This Factory In Manhattan And Make The Products Come Alive And I’m A Sit Down With A Corporate Attorney And Figure Out How We Gonna Move Foward As Far As The Brand Is Concerned. As Far As The Competitive Nature Of The Fashion Industry, There’s Always Gonna Be A Demand For Hip Hop Wear, It Just Depends On Price And Style. There’s Not Too Many Urban Brands That’s Getting Worn These Days, Nobody Wears Roc A Wear, Nobody Wears Sean Jean; Fubu, Akedemics, Enyce, Are What People From Other Countries Wear, And They Sport That Brand Harder Then The Average African American. NIggas Are Dying Over Jordans, Kanye Clothes Are A Bunch Of Bullshit And They Are Too Costly, And Slowbucks Had A Good Run, But After That Incident With 50 Cent At Summerjam, People Are Slowly Turning Away From Him. So This Is The Time I Can Make My Move And Capitilize Off The Urban Market. Once The Product Is In Physical Form, I’m A Take 50,000 Out Of My Own Money, Hire A Street Team, Set Up Some Fashion Shows And I’m A Attack The Market From There.

Street Life City 5: Lately You’ve Been Seen In Brooklyn Courtside At The Nets Game, There’s Been Rumors Of You And NBA Star Jack Jarrett In Talks About A Business Deal For SLC, Is There Any Truth To That?

Nyne Millirachi 5: Me And Jack Jarrett Go Way Back, We’ve Been Close Freinds For A Long Time, He’s A Fan Of My Music And He Supports My SLC Movement, I Always Knew He Would Be A Star Player, And God Willing I Hope He Leads Brooklyn To A Championship This Year. I Go To All The Nets Game, I’m A Big Supporter Of The NBA, And Besides I’m From New York, So Ofcourse I’m A Support The Home Team. But Me And Jarrett Is Working On A Partnership For SLC And We Are Working On A Sneaker Deal With Nike Where We Can Put Out Some Exclusive Feet Wear. But Other Then That, Catch Me At The Nets Game, Probably Sitting Next To Hova, Nigga I’m Some Spiked Out, I Could Trip A Referee Lol.

Street Life City 6: Is SLC Gonna Go To A Major Corporation Or Will It Stay Independent?

Nyne Millirachi 6: Well It Depends On The Situation And What Is Being Offered. If They’re Talking About Millions Then I Might Consider Having A Meeting With Them, But If It’s A Bullshit Number I Can Make Independently Then I’m Not Gonna Waste My Time. Because There’s Nothing A Major Corporation Can Do For Me Besides Loan Me Money That I’m A Have To Pay Back With Interest. My Website Is Doing Heavy Traffic, I Make A Nice Change Off That Alone, My Battlerap Views Is Up, And My Facebook Popularity Is Up There, I Already Know What Demographics To Cater To. I Prefer The Independent Route, Cause Ain’t Nobody Gonna Tell Me How To Run My Company That I Built And Designed Myself. Because The Minute Somebody Or Something Invests Capitol Into You, They Feel Like The Can Infiltrate And Control Your Movements. Sorry I’m Not A Puppet, Their Won’t Be No String Pulling Over Here.

Street Life City 7: What Do You Want To Do With SLC As A Brand?

Nyne Millirachi 7: Take Over The World, I Want That Donald Trump Money. You See Trump Got His Hands On Everything From Casinos, To Hotels, Gold Club, Malls Etc. I Want To Created SLC Amusement Park, Street Life City Kitchen, SLC Headphones, And Expand The Market To Wherever I See There’s Gonna Be An Increase In Revenue And Sales. But More Importantly, I Want To Give Back To The Urban Community, Feed The Homeless, Create Jobs And A Legacy That Is Gonna Be Remembered For Generations To Come.
