i’m lost for words… RIP Virgil Abloh
That grim reaper came a noggin huh bapa, shoulda waited till January
@@sexualdookie cynicism
WTF NO WAY
RIP ABLOH
@@sexualdookieyour legit a nobody hating on Lv’s designer ain’t that’s something
Everybody is in here roasting this kid, he’s young, he’ll find his way, he has heart and drive and those are things you can’t teach. I bet he was also crazy nervous pitching his ideas to an icon.
This ☝️ Yes he talked way to much, but you people need to acknowledge the fact that he's actually doing what he's passionate about and getting his hands dirty.
He may be far from being an icon but if he keeps going and learning from his mistakes and hard work, the only way for him is up.
fax, niggas who dont do shit luv 2 h8

Jack Robinson if your commenting it under multiple peoples unrelated comments, it’s spam
Jack Robinson and no offence man but your website looks like it’s from the mid 2000s, especially love the photoshopped designs onto stock images of models
The fact that Virgil did this while battling cancer says so much about the man
he had not been diagnosed yet
He battled cancer for 2 years. If this video was released on 2020 and he died in 2021 then he was diagnosed some time in 2019. So respectfully he more than likely did know he had cancer at this point
@@FutureMemories1983 He was diagnosed in 2019. This video was posted to RUclips in 2020, but was recorded in 2016.
@@soraroxas60 oh word? that's wild. I've tried looking for the original. but my internet sleuthing skills arent' on pat with yours.
11:26 "...only anime, take everything away..." and then he did exactly that and got brand deals with every single anime and made a massively successful brand. That's awesome.
Out of all these mentor videos with Virgil this kid got the most negative response, and yet his brand is by far the one doing the most numbers today and the most successful out of all them.
So true... it’s crazy how he made it
He was onto something from the jump, it was just a matter of time till he found his lane and that's frankly part of the creative process. Happy for him.
He found his lane and applied that hyper focus 🔑
we all know why.
His brand is dope
Nobody:
Virgil Abloh: Yeah, Yeah , Yeah ,MMH,yeah
Yeah because this guy chats hella shit at 100mph
yea yea
Virgil is calm and just pauses more between sentences
Go check out my brand, www.ggwclothing.con 💯👊🏽 appreciate the support if you can! (I’m giving out sponsorships to athletes, musicians etc aswell)
@@kjjohnson3899 That's should tell you something. He does not fill his sentence with "Ummm" or "Hmmm". He rather gets his idea across complete and precise. It focuses on his ideas. When he stuck on an idea and has a direction. However, he has stuck a "lack of the better term" he will inform that. He a very precise person.
this man virgil was not impressed at all
Design and Art is 60% bullshitting people. I think the kid overdid though. Sometimes people respect you just fucking with something, you don't always need to overexplain.
@@kubolor1234 more like 100 percent BS. It's basically just selling a product
@@kidproduction6720 virgil has been in the game for many years now so of course he knows the basics to building a brand, but his success can be easily traced back to his connections with kanye west and asap mob. I mean Ian Connor was in his first photoshoot and now he has his own brand, which virgil wears. The whole thing is one big clout exchange so they can all grow as artists. unless you think guys like virgil and asap bari are just gifted graphic designers, and if you look at the design work they've done on their own (without a team of designers) it doesn't add up to much. The Vlone V" is a tattered up LV "V" and Virgil made hoodies with stolen artwork and gave them to kanye west and asap mob. I don't agree with T'challa but hyping this guy up is just silly.
@@kidproduction6720 praising virgil when he steals alot of designs from small designers? lmao
if you think anything virgil has done in Offwhite or his LV designs are "art" then you clearly have low standard and have no idea wtf youre talking about
Bc his brand is so weak. He has no sense of authenticity and originality. He needs to focus in on what what he wants to do
The brand name scared me away immediately
S E WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOL
pussy
I get that hype is a very itchy word
literally lmfao
I guess "litbaecity" was taken
this is the most polite way to tell someone they are all over the place.
va was the best at that, always a kind soul but super demanding of people to achieve their best ;)
Mans created that vision board after he heard VIrgil was coming
SusWritings 🤣🤣🤣
You should create one
Lol
😂😂😂😂
"oh fuck. scape that off... ::). gotta go buy some new board and them patches......danm.
Man, no offense but my mans was talking like he was presenting a highschool slideshow 😂 slow down and let the clothing do the talking
😂😂😂
Let’s see u do it
U probably can’t even give a proper in school presentation to begin with lmaooo
Lmfaooo
I feel you dude but he's enthusiastic, you can hear that excitement through his presentation. Yes, he shouldn't be speaking so fast but its a good indicator.
The detail Virgil used to explain the term “quality” was very concise & needed for a young designer. College level course in less than 5 minutes of explaining “quality”.
Awesome
He droppin’ gems!
time?
Time?
nvm
VIRGIL WAS LIKE WTF AM I DOING WITH THIS KID
Josh Mendoza that’s why he’s trying to mentor him lol
lmAO
haha
Josh Mendoza seriously.
when he started talking about the Olympics and Nintendo looool
This look like the chinese “streetwear” ads on instagram and facebook
LMFAAOO
Leave him alone he downloaded AliExpress
Yuriy's Mom you wrong for that one💀😂lmao that was an uppercut...you didn’t have to do him like that lol
I liked your comment before reading it, because I felt like it was the right thing to do and it was.
Fax
He’s nervous, he’s young and he’s just starting out. Give him a break. And that was great advice by Virgil. Less is always more. Keep it up young brotha ✊🏾
just starting out? brand been out like 10 years pay attention
My point also was instead of talking so much, he shud of picked Virgils Brain, And asked him questions, he cud have gotten gems.
Agree
This kid could give a fuck about fashion, he cares more about the business side of the project not the artistic side of it
He’s young and nervous meeting Virgil and introducing him to his brand. I think he will figure it out eventually
Nah bro you just need to learn how to spell before you go on telling people what they should do
@@CelsoF17 there shud be a full stp at the end of tht sentence btw
This reminded me of when I was writing my thesis and my professor telling me I was all over the place.
This is so true man lmaooo
Street wear is like culture merch
yes
i like this idea.
its not in good taste but it really does seem last 6 seasons of streetwear is so merchy
Invki I mean that’s what pretty much all clothing is
Funny How he is killing it with gaming and anime pieces now. Virgil true genius and an awesome mentor.
yeah Virgil saw the vision EARLY, love him for that 🙏🙏🙏
Starting a brand from ground 0. Investing your money working hard to make it work. To having one of the most popular designers in the world give you his time insight and advice. I commend this young man. I want to see you smart asses in the comments get this far.
who else was trippin when they heard the notification
2:35
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣Yoh
Everybody is in here roasting this kid, he’s young, he’ll find his way, he has heart and drive and those are things you can’t teach. I bet he was also crazy nervous pitching his ideas to an icon.
@@joshualee4251 who's roasting him? I was talking about the random notification sound in the middle of the video
The kid is trying too hard to explain and convince Virgil his brand is a good idea. If your own brand cannot talk for itself then your brand isnt heading in the right direction.
I was thinking the same thing
hypland is very successful but this kid is not smooth at all lmaoo
Go check out my brand, www.ggwclothing.con 💯👊🏽 appreciate the support if you can! (I’m giving out sponsorships to athletes, musicians etc aswell)
i get what you mean, but in the end, he had the meeting with Virgil, and Virgil is there to give him pointers. Clearly the kid has some sort of drive and design skills. You never ever hit it out of the park your first time.
Jack Robinson 💯💯🔥🔥🔥
Glad he took Virgil’s advice and focused on one theme instead of having all these very different ideas. Glad he chose the right theme too because I don’t think people would’ve messed with those military and flag clothes as much as the anime ones.
You already know it ain’t different just by the name HYPLAND
To be fair. He said he started the brand 8 years ago
Canned Bread yeah but still he’s older now he should know that name is corny as fuck
Jude Marino the brand has improved like crazy
Aluhx ngl, hypland is being carried by their anime design, not that it’s a bad thing but I think it’s what gave them more success
Alfonso Wow yeah and there stuff ain’t half bad, I own a hxh tee and it looks dope
Hypland today is 100% anime merch. Don't know what he took from Virgil's advice.
Virgils main point In the conversation (if you were listening) was the concept of 'hyper focus'. The kid has a billion random ideas and references that could be used each as their own brand. Regardless if he picked anime, military, accessibility etc it seems he decided to focus on a concept and follow that hyper focus advice. Fan or not, seems to be working for him
@@stephaniecarter2592 I understood that after I watched the entire video but in regards of anime Virgil was touching on the actual cuts and design of the garments within the anime. It just seems like he went overboard on that 1 piece of advice. I like the stuff shown in this old video more than the current brand. Its literally just screenprinted anime clothes.
@@randomperson4942 agreed, regardless of how its designed it still follows the concept of hyper focus. Its no longer a combo of different things, only anime which has its audience. Could he expand and go deeper than shirts or the concept of anime from a black & white perspective? Yes 100%.
takes time to change the designs, seasons and to produce it.
it takes time to develop a brand + he already got the rights to put a bunch of anime references on clothing.
bro this kid needs to take a f...n breath!
He is in front of virtil, prolly one of his idlols
i think they edited the video and cut out the gaps of silence. not realizing it just sounds like hes talking nonstop
Terry Crowley Virtil
I'm at a 3:23 right now and paused the video just to get my two cents out. When Kanye came to Perth in 2014 I accidentally ran into Virgil at my local cafe while I was walking back to class at my TAFE. The man who had already designed multiple off-white collections went out of his way to have a conversation with me about art, fashion and Kanye's show while he was eating lunch with Nina Las Vegas. He was so polite and nice to me even though I was wearing the most bum ass fake been trill X HBA shirt and Pyrex shirt. No matter what the outcome of this video is I just want to say that he is deep down in his heart a nice and genuine guy. Allot of people who are around these mega stars before they blow up get a huge head but not Virgil. He's a real bloke who will take the time out of his day if he has it available just to show his fans love. Good luck to this kid in the future I wish I got the opportunity that he has been given.
Jean-Luc Soldatic that’s too dope! Check us out on insta @poisonivysociety
The same way he took the time to be kind, & thoughtful, you are too my brother. We appreciate you. You paid it fwd with this comment.
Crazy how Virgil dissed Pyrex in this video and you mentioned you was rocking a pyrex tee lmao your tshirt had a fucking huge impact on Virgil that years after he met you he’s telling ppl how that name for a brand is the last shit he wants to see or talk about while at dinner is insane I mean that’s if you really at the 3minute Mark
Virgil probably hears this so often when people pitch their clothing vision and ideas to him. Virgil said it perfectly, when he sees the content, he sees 7 brands. I think his mind has transcended the hype street wear culture although being still heavily influenced. The young kid on the other hand, and I commend him for doing what he's doing, is so engulfed in current things that are trendy despite wanting to create timeless pieces. His clothing looks really similar to stuff that pops up on instagram ads every few posts.
@wakeupshitiots His brand relies on popular and iconic animes and already existing IPs. If you strip that out, you are left with clothes that are generic and forgettable. He wanted to create timeless pieces, but in the end, he ate those words up and just wanted the quick cash. Kudos to him tho for getting that bread.
How old is this kid he is out here making moves while clowns out here being negative
he make money that cool but the brand is trash lets be honest
@@AlexSkyZ8 he is a kid so I wouldn't judge his brand not when he has determination you know many times creative people change and evolve their creations most people dont even want to put the game controller down to be successful this kid is devoted to his grind
Frfr
He'll succeed he shouldn't mind the goons
@@tygur23 Bro is 23 and has a good brand with a devoted niche fanbase to his anime shit, he's doing good from what I can see
He is doing it... Period, that alone needs to be recognized and appreciated.
It's ironic seeing the comments now kind of roasting this kid, cause HYPLAND is actually very successful now.
yes exactly! good for him
the whole video basically
the kid: blah blah blah blah blah blah
virgil: mhm, yeah. stop doing too much
this video helped me so much man...virgil is really out there being my virtual mentor
I’m most impressed with how patient Virgil was with this young man. He has drive and talent and just needs a good mentor. What Virgil is telling him that he’s doing a bit much and there should be a bit of mystery behind what he’s doing.
Facts. Kind of like constructive criticism
@Chance Wilson
Absolutely sir!
Thanks for your comment and enjoy the weekend.
I thought Virgil was ripping him in half until I saw the comments in here 😂 if you're reading this my guy you're making money and Young. you got time and got it good
Paul Vass thank you someone not hating, them fuck boys mad his shit sells out instantly and that he didn’t take any of virgils advice good cause virgils an overhyped ass nigga foreal
"moving away from anime" bruh just dropped two naruto rugs and 2 naruto hoodies wym
People can change their mind, who cares
He matured and focused his brand all his clothes somehow reference anime now
Facts yo. Lmaoooo
worst part is that the naruto graphic made the hoodies go from alright to unwearable it was totally unnecesary
He needs to drop it, it's played out
This video was originally recorded in 2016. This kid is now 23 years old and has a fairly successful brand.
Sure it's heavily anime influenced but Virgil did recommend him to focus on one particular theme.
fast forward 1 year later from your comment and Hypland as a brand is picking up steam like mad, this kid really figured his business out.
R.I.P Virgil.
Fr, the kid’s like “oh yea im definitely steering away from anime now and aiming for a more serious style” just to see his brand now is exclusively anime lmao
@@moosemeat300 The kid in the video, Jordan Bentley, is a multi-millionair now
@@ptg6202 if that what he loves then that’s fine and his brand is super successful now even had a collaboration with Hello Kitty which is a huge brand
488k on insta!!! this brand is now highly successful. Some how this guy has built this massive company.
Totally insane
virgil is dropping gems
he dropped a gem on em
I feel as though any other designer would have treated the interaction with this kid as a waste. Virgil sounded and treated him as a creative person.
What’s his brand btw?
Generic brand with generic style... I smell fast fashion inspired.
VEE ANON exaaactly
“Started off by ripping off supreme logo”
VEE ANON yeah I totally agree with you about off white
Ha generic people like you
@@stopcryingalready If he didn't acknowledge supreme I think he could've pulled off the bogo thing.
He's saying alot but whats the story behind your brand? What is the purpose? He's young and could still be finding his way. Sometimes less is more. Just slow down and look for inspiration within your self and not always on the outside. I still believe he could do big things especially since he was able to speak with Virgil. Will follow the young man and support.
@Aramis Ponder
Great summation!
Lmao this video is really old. Look up hypland now
@@32afsdf the brand still looks the same if you go on their website
it's strictly anime
This was a super critique. A wonderful opportunity the designer will carry with him forever. Man this is priceless.
this is dope! This is what art and design school is all about. Critiques. Everything stays open to growth and evolving.
What a dope experience my brother! You are incredibly talented. The world ain't ready for you mate.
Ben Jackson ... 😬
Man I’d be so stoked to get an interview like this with Virgil for my brand! He’s got so much wisdom. Legend ✨🐐
😞rip
I love listening to Virgil talk, so calm, at ease and so knowledgeable
This is dope. Shoutout to the kid being where he is and inshallah where he’ll end up his brand will speak for itself.
Great video. Very thought provoking. This kid's mind is running at 100 miles an hour. He talks a lot but isn't saying much. lol. It's great that Virgil's main point is to bring it back in to a more focused vision.
The worldwide concept is cool, but I feel like he could push it further. It looks like he is mostly just putting some flags on blank garments. If I were in his shoes, I would consider making up my own flags that then influence the garments. Also look at other "world" designs like the UN logo or old olympics logos for example and pull design elements from that to create new graphics. Could also look at designing his own "Olympics" logo when he is focusing on a specific country.
my g
The Unknown Vlogs What’s good kofs
Can’t knock him for trying my g
lol
Thanks so much for posting this
This takes me back to my early days in architecture school, trying to present to my tutors lol. The vibes here hit too close to home... 😅
“I’m moving away from anime”... Does a whole Naruto Collection lmaooooo
this was 4+ years ago.... he did move away but then anime companies reached out to him. now look at him
Yeah and it’s selling like crazy so what’s the problem again?
I've been buying hypland for a few years now. dope to see Virgil even acknowledge this brand
This was painful to watch. I applaud Virgil for keeping his composure.
“Uh hmm” STFU
I agree
This is my opinion from the beginning he had no real concept and was just stealing ideas from other people
richard tuan ok I’m not the biggest fan of off white, but he is an incredible influence on fashion culture, a creative director for Louis Vuitton and ACW. You may call his stuff garbage but he paved the way for streetwear to merge with high fashion. Also Kanye designed a unique and well made high quality shoe that I think is pretty fascinating, not only that but Virgils ideas may seem simple and that’s why people call him “unskilled” but at the same time the simplicity he’s achieved is unlike anything that’s been done in fashion
THIS IS FANTASTIC! I LOVE HOW VIRGIL IS GIVING BACK TO THE YOUTH OF TODAY AND GIVING THEM GUIDANCE AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO CREATING HIS DREAM.
Wow Im mad this kid got this chance to talk to one of the most relevant designers and didn’t do shit with it
Well his brand has over 100k followers on instagram now. Say what you want but this kids is way smarter than 99% of the people shitting on him in the comments.
Jay Reality that’s not the point, or impressive really, what’s bothering me is that he did not take the advice and better himself or his brand, shit look at the crap he’s producing now
Jay Reality He can have 100k followers but his product and his designs are shit bro. You can find the same design in a H&M or Bershka store.
Andrea Tosini This dude is a child. Have you seen virgils early designs? Very trash street wear. I can bet my life that in 10 years this kids design career will be way further than all you kids tryna shit on him. You know why? WORK ETHIC. Everyone starts somewhere remember that.
Jay Reality sure but you could see the vision w virgil and there’s a big diff in the cloth that virgil is cut from compared to this dude.. virgil was around dudes like don c, taz arnold, kanye and ibn jasper he had no choice but to be this great
it pisses me off how this kid isnt taking anything in.
agreed, he needs to stop rushing to talk again by saying mmhm after every dam sentence when virgil speaks
i agree. NO follow up questions or going deeper for details. I wish he dug in more
He is showing or telling his success instead of asking questions or guidance. Lost opportunity.
How would you know
I don’t normally comment on videos but I love the insight that Virgil gives to the spectrum of topics that this man brand includes I have a streetwear brand and that I have been growing over the past two years and a lot of the comments that Virgil makes I will now incorporate them with the brand story that I am creating, thank you for this content it has really inspired me to create. You should be proud of the content you create.
Thanks for this video! Very insightful.
Hate to be that guy because I don’t want to bash someone’s vision but.… trash. This kid is young and has a whole life ahead of him and will soon learn anything with the word “hype” in a brand name needs to go.
He's actually doing pretty well. Most of the stuff on his website is sold out.
yeah that brand name cheesy af lmao
@@elijahhm4768 its sold out cuz people like him buy em. hYpEbEaSt
Nvm I checked it out because its anime merch basically and a lot of people like anime
ooga booga yessir only reason i got some shirts like the bleach ones are so cool
Funny how y’all hatin on dude makin money legally, you pussy boys need to get out more and get ya bread up smh
Another problem is that for example the H as a logo just makes all of his items look like Huf to people who don’t know. Especially the hats
I swear you could just go to Pacsun and buy a Huf hat and anime shirt and you'd look the same haha
Thats a good point about the logo
Yeah this a bad look for abloh
Simular to like helly Hanson tooo it’s dead the H needs switch that one up
LOLOL.. I HOPE HE LOOKS BACK AT THIS AND PUSH THE V " VEHICLE" HE met virgil and he picked and helped the garments.
One of the vids that got me into graphic design bro
Homies excitement and confidence left minute by minute
A lot of the youth/ kids have a similar mindset to the young king. Often, we have so much ideas that we don’t know what to focus on. Virgil is telling him/us that “less is more” & it’s okay to have subgroups when you have a main brand. It’s sad that you have a bunch of people with no avatar tryna bring this kid down when you won’t even say a sentence if u met your idol! Lol
A lot of you’s screamed failure with out seeming to have searched him up last year. Because last time I checked he was killing that year too so I’m confused lol. And I’m fucking blown away to have seen him @ 450k followers just now. all the negativity in comments was weird (RIP A LEGEND🌟)
Young dude with a passionate vision and a will to grow. That’s a recipe for success.
This was so interesting and seeing Virgil talk about artistic direction and product pricing so meticulously...I'll probably watch this again just because lol ...hopeless this designer creates some more heat and some buzz in the coming future🔥🔥
Virgil: Make one thing as a template and than repeat
Literally all of off white
this kid really said "I'm getting more into this higher fashion like I've been looking at the Raf simons"😂
Is RAF Simmons even considered high fashion?
@@midfie1 for sure bro
@@nimouh9816 I like the Dior shit but his own brand seem to gothic to be considered high end or luxury to me. Just my opinion. Were does he make his clothes?
@@nimouh9816 its definitely high end prices though
@@midfie1 dont even compare raf to dior
I can’t believe this interview was made 5 years ago. Hypland has grown so much
That’s some solid advice. Keep it concise. He seems to be doing good for himself now. Shifted to more of anime. Refined his demographic.
i can not believe he just name dropped Raf in front of Virgil lolol
Vinnie Hager what’s the beef between raf and Virgil?!?

@@delaxanexel44 "off white is running shit" bahahahhaa funniest thing ive heard in a while
Y’all in here going on him but he has a very successful brand. He was very young here. But he didn’t quit now he has contracts with your favorite anime brands 🤷🏽♂️
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Big love
I'm pleased that he went with the Anime theme, as he already has a huge fan base; I do like the mentor's explanation of understanding quality at a higher level.
I can tell, kid was nervous and he's done enough to get the attention of this group to get him in front of Virgil. I can tell the first time I presented a starting brand in art school, ive had a history of hating public speaking but I had to learn. I was terrible in my first presentation, but with practice, and continuing to speak, and slowing down i was able to articulate my ideas better to where the audience could get an idea of what I was suggesting. This kids on the right path, he'll get better with each time he does this.
I can def respect where this kid is coming from. But improving upon your craft also comes from listening to constructive criticism. I think Virgil here pointed out a lot of good things for his brand and why it should head a certain direction with more cohesion. Hope he takes some of the advice.
Look at his site now
@@dazzypeters6793 🤣
Yes, it pays a lot to take some of Virgils' advice
488k on insta now!!!!
Hypland is now massive, weird to think a few years ago he only had 16k and making the designs by hand.
He really specialised into a niche and then became that niche.
Massive respect for him for that.
yeah that young man is killing it, i'm so happy for him!
he's still super young and now he has the benefit of his brand to form a fashion or more high end approach.
he did really well 4 years later after this interview.
very knowledgeable on his target group, he expanded to different parts of the world, now its time to rebrand and make these other designs a reality.
Man this kid makes what could’ve been an incredible experience to listen to Virgil and soak up every nugget of real world knowledge, experience & wisdom from success & failure but all he wants to do is talk his product, which needs a ton of work obviously
I’m still learning myself with my own brand. Everything is a process. I had to change the name 3 times to get it right. And the story had to come natural to me. Sometimes you have to take that leap and change up some things for the better. Take the time to stand back and analyze your brand as a whole. But this kid is one of us and the fact that he has a big following and to be able to meet Virgil the Legend is truly a blessing.
Facts bro
What’s your brand?
TNP _ Its called IOBWOC you can check my work out on my instagram @iobwoc
I just don’t like brands that look like other brands. This looks like a knock off Huf with the H
enocvargas it really does, I also feel like he should change the name too. If he feels the need to.
Huf literally would write huf on a jacket in either print or embroidery and sell to you idiot fucks for 60-80$ for 3 letters haha. Yeah totally.
@@wavyyoko2622 niggas out here paying for $200+ for a rip n dip tracksuit 🙄💀
Good work kid. I think the global street wear focused on a collection for each country/city street wear a a season thing is very good.
Your best advice is sometimes your own bro good stuff!
He’s doing pretty great for a young man especially if Virgil is talking to him about his stuff. Good for him.
Little bro talk too much, take a breath, when people talk this much you really loose intrest in what he's talking about because it becomes overwhelming, he should have been picking virgil's brain more asking more questions instead of talking a mile a minute
For sure. It almost came across as if he didn't back/believe in himself. Definitely should've used the opportunity to have a discussion WITH Virgil Abloh
Agreed I would pick the shit out of Virgil brand
Exactly
Jaron Davis yea I would pick his brain and get ideas on how to finest my brand and get into places with big manufactures like his
@@RIPxBlackHawk forth of all I think you're more bothered than me and virgil put together, relax brother Black hawk !
His initial conversation was a bit confusing but when he showed us his website it's super cool! I love his jacket collection. Impressive.
had to go back to this video because of the gems that are changing my life this moment in my career, thank you Virgil RIP and also thank you HYPLAND
crazy that this boy is getting ANY hate. I like how the boy approached it and totally loved Virgil responses, which also show me that he was liking it too. The boy did a decent pitch, and Virgil did drop amazing gems. If you are only interested in what Virgil has to say, just do the 10s fast forward (you’ll be going back to the boy bc Virgil was actually praising what the boy is doing, and you’ll want to understand the whole context). Beautiful video. Thanks for posting and let the GOAT RIP
This kids brand is bigger than anyone is these comments. Stop hating, he did something right
Looks like he took Virgil's advice. He and his company have an NBA collab coming out soon. Shout out to him and his vision!
That varsity jacket was it for me. This kids talented , I hope he moves forward
nonetheless good job Virgil... I wonder how he took Raf's critics
Funny, Hypland now is one of the best anime clothing stores! Dude found is avenue if he sticks with the anime collabs, shit sells out like Supreme fast lol
I like how nervous he is, I totally understand, he is literally stand next to a legend, he is talking to a legend
This is why the internet is so great! Soakin’ it up
dam thats so hot to meet Virgil but to have him critique your work, heck ya baby.
