BORN I MUSIC

What’s poppin y’all? Well if you’ve been following my tweets recently you know that an exciting partnership has just taken place between your’s truly and an infinitely awesome, high-fashion footwear company. Namely, Heyday Footwear

Boston-based model, fashionista and music industry consultant, Jules Renae, who was recently cast as a lead in my upcoming video for “Time”, knew about my fetish for nu-fashion hightop footwear and thought that Heyday and I would be a good fit. She couldn’t have been more right. Jules introduced me to Darin Hager, Design Guru and Chief Everything Officer at Heyday Footwear. After a few tweets and a phonecall, the deal was sealed. A few days later, the official announcement was made on Heyday’s blog
“Heyday Footwear newest Brand Ambassador Born Infinite is the very embodiment of Heyday Footwear Shoe Math design process…different trends mixed together to create something entirely new and original…”
If there was ever a match made in heaven, this is it. I mean, look at these kicks…

Catch me rockin these in my next video

#GTFOH

I’d like to take this moment to thank the great folks @ Heyday Footwear for believing in me and my movement. Stay tuned to my upcoming videos, photoshoots and general appearances for the latest shoe math designs from Heyday. This is how its done, kids. Let’s get it.

Catch me in a pair of all-white Heyday Super Shifts in the upcoming video for my single Memory Lane. Am I the first rapper in my city with a shoe deal? The answer is “yes”. Shoutout to Heyday Footwear. G&D wins again. Let’s go.

“To say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who kneels.”

The closing words to Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” perfectly sum up Born I Music’s latest release “RE:BORN (Chairman of the Board)“.

This is truly a project for all seasons. “RE:BORN” finds Born I completely in his element as he weaves through an incredible collection of hip hop, dubstep and soul classics with impeccable timing, wordplay and delivery.

“RE:BORN” gives us Born in a new phase of personal, lyrical and artistic development. Add that to Kanye’s “Runaway”, Joker’s “Tron”, Jay Electronica’s “Ghost of Christopher Wallace” or Erykah Badu’s “Window Seat”, lace samples of Frank Sinatra & Rat Pack folklore throughout and you’ve got an experience designed to last a lifetime. This isn’t your regular mixtape. This is rebirth. Every track you’ll hear, including the artist himself has been transformed, upgraded, perfected. In a word, Re:Born.
