Me in New York. I don’t be playing I come here to hustle no cap! Go get the money! Dolph Voice
Crazy title huh? Yes, you may wonder how such a thing is even possible but it’s possible and it is happening. One day I was on Clubhouse, the emerging social media that specializes in voicechats and we was talking about New Yorkers don’t take advantage of whats in their backyard.
Ever since I was young I always wanted to move to Brooklyn. I don’t know why my heart was just always drawn there. Its like Dom Kennedy once said, “If I lived in New York, I’ll probably be the Brooklyn type”. So when I finally first made my trip to New York in Jan. 2016, I went to town. I literally traveled borough to borough every dang day. I went to all the art places, talked with strangers, made connections, promoted my brand everywhere I went and just submerged myself in the city.
So when I heard that’s its people in The Bronx, that never been to Soho, I’m like what the hell. When I hear people feeling like they have to leave New York to make it, I’m like but everything is right there! New York get all the exclusive drops, it gets all kinds of people, and the city literally never sleeps! You can walk outside to the connection. Where I was staying in Brooklyn, they was randomly working on a show outside and I got offered to work as a Production Assistant. New York is just land of opportunity especially for creators.
I originally wanted to go there for law school but I’m glad it didn’t work out that way maybe the city would’ve been too much of a distraction. However, I’m not done with New York, I’ll be returning to take over, somebody has to do it because you locals refuse to! lol
