COMMUNITY :: Nipsey Hussle
9/23/2019
On February 11, 2018, I interviewed the late, great rapper and community leader, Nipsey Hussle, for an editorial piece entitled “At Conflict with the World.” Ironically, we recorded most of the discussion while parked in the space where Nip’s life would tragically be stolen one year later. Since his death, I’ve been discouraged by the hole Nipsey leaves behind in our culture, in music, in Los Angeles. Yet, I’m simultaneously inspired by a generation of upstarts from the neighborhood who have...

GET UP KIDS :: A-Trak
9/16/2019
It's amazing that we didn't have to record this episode with world famous DJ and producer A-Trak from the airport because the Fool's Gold Records founder is legit traveling the globe like 547 days a year. Beyond being arguably the most influential figure in EDM and bringing his unique flair to countless iconic hip-hop and dance records, Alain is one of the most technically skilled turntablists in history, becoming a world champion scratcher while the rest of the kids his age were just...

SOMETIMES IT TAKES SOME TIME :: Kenan Thompson
9/16/2019
What can you say about Kenan Thompson that hasn't been said? He's a consummate professional, a legend in the game, and one of the most versatile talents modern culture has ever seen. A rare breed, he's part of a miniscule group of massive child stars that has been able to transcend their early fame and find even bigger success as an adult. The husband, father, comedian, and actor is now the longest tenured cast member in Saturday Night Live history, a feat that is both astonishing and...

RIVERCIDE :: Samii Ryan
9/16/2019
Aside from sharing an office space with The Hundreds, Samii Ryan shares a lot of other things in common with Bobby, most importantly being the middle child of their families. You may know her for being a model or the founder of her eponymous brand that is taking over the world, but Samii has an incredible roller coaster story that you have to hear. From being raised in a home full of actual witches to overcoming the most difficult of obstacles, Samii has proven tougher than most and a force...

UPSET THE SETUP :: Jessie Andrews
9/9/2019
Entrepreneur extraordinaire Jessie Andrews' story could have played out so much differently. After getting her start in porn when she was 18, Jessie amassed a huge audience but realized quickly that she would need to diversify her brand to sustain growth and reach more people outside of that world. First with a successful jewelry brand, and then with swimwear, and now with a number of other brands and a charitable organization, Jessie figured it out. She didn't have a team helping her solve...

LAUREN'S LESSON :: Benny Gold
9/9/2019
Celebrated streetwear designer Benny Gold did something not many have done before: he closed down his brand on a good note. He didn't run it into the ground until the wheels fell off, he didn't sell it to some shell corporation to let them control it like a parasite. He recognized it had run its course (for now) and made an incredibly difficult decision. And in this time of late stage capitalism, that makes him an extreme outlier. While in San Francisco for his book tour, Bobby sat down with...

FIGHT BACK :: Wale
9/9/2019
On the day Bobby's book was released, as countless fans and friends and family finally got to dig in to This Is Not a T-Shirt, the author himself was heading back to where it all started. Before the big release event and book signing at The Grove in LA, Bobby was set to reconnect with an old friend in Wale that had seen The Hundreds in its infancy, when the brand was just trying to find its footing and make its way. Wale could relate, he was new to the scene on Fairfax and like many others...

END OF DAZE :: Dom McLennon
9/1/2019
Just before the release of Brockhampton's highly anticipated new album Ginger, rapper, producer, activist, and founding BH member Dom McLennon stopped by The Hundreds HQ to sit down with Bobby and reflect. Both on the memories behind and the challenges ahead. This episode is about graduating from the underground and hitting the main stage. It's about adapting to a new existence, whether you're ready for it or not. Listen to this episode of This Is Not a Podcast and take notes for your...

THE HARDEST PART :: Ellen Bennett
9/1/2019
If there is anyone outside of Bobby and Ben that has embodied the spirit of The Hundreds more than Ellen Bennett, feel free to point them out. The former line cook turned kitchenwear extraordinaire took entrepreneurship to another level, developing a brilliant idea into one of the strongest brands in the food world, backed up by a supportive community that cares about quality and the love that every real kitchen contains. Ellen's Hedley & Bennett brand has exploded, and you can find her...

BLOW UP :: Fred Durst
9/1/2019
On a sunny afternoon in June, legendary rock star Fred Durst visited The Hundreds Los Angeles. It was a surreal few hours. He was helping us out with the roll out of The Hundreds X Osiris D3, a shoe he helped put on the map nearly two decades earlier. After the photoshoot, Fred sat down with Bobby for an extensive conversation that covered early 2000's fashion, the cost of fame, and raising kids in today's society. Given that the Limp Bizkit frontman rarely gives interviews, especially one...
