[Interview] Frequently Fly conversation {Clothing}
On September - 17 - 2009
Last month we showed a video called “Fly Everywhere I go” which was a pictorial of a campaign being run by Pittsburgh’s own Frequently Fly clothing. Today, He debuted part two of that campaign and we also got a hold of Mr. Frequently Fly to talk to him about his brand, the movement, the spacesuit and where he wants to take his clothing line…Also, below the line is the 2nd part to the “Fly Everywhere I go” Campaign…Get it.
ForTheCritics.com : Well, First and foremost…The question anyone who’s visited your site or seen you out is What does the Spaceman suit, Your logo and the name of your brand symbolize?
Frequently: I think the best place to start is with the name and logo. A large portion of it is self explanitory to an extent, but the entire concept of what is being done in regards to this brand is based on man’s obsession with flight. That can be traced as far back as Icarus in greek mythology and proceeds to current day astronauts. It’s translated in the urban culture as a representation of status as well as a sense of style, so we feel that we embody that sense…frequently.
The spacesuit was the translation of that same concept except it was a campaign that we felt was a complete representation. We hoped that it would also garner attention and actually get a conversation started, which is exactly what it did. The campaign is called “Fly Everywhere I Go”, so the whole idea behind it was to find a blatantly obvious way to represent someone being fly, and then put them into everyday situations. The main idea was being fly everywhere you go, so that’s why there are shots taken in the park, walking around town, on the bus, in a Taco Bell, in a hotel, etc. These are all places that people frequent on a regular if not daily basis but regardless of where you are your always fly.
ForTheCritics.com : Everybody starts somewhere, Talk a little about your path that ultimately led you to Frequently Fly…
Frequently: When I was in high school I had a desire to do a clothing line. Not a streetwear brand or a shirt line, but a full fledged clothing line. As I did the research and looked into financing the entire venture I got a reality check in terms of the amount of money that it would cost me to purchase rare fabrics as well as paying a seamstress, etc. So I sort of fell back from chasing that dream. Time went on and eventually I started to get the itch again, I was still designing shirts here and there, or just drawing them out in my sketch book that I kept. A lot of the ideas were just general, then one day I was in the shower and got an idea for a brand, so I slowly built on that idea from time to time scribbling ideas on the backs of napkins and envelopes. Even then it wasn’t anything that I was sure I wanted to pursue fully.
Things picked up some when I bought the Air Jordan Spizikes, the white and grey versions. I could not find any shirt that I liked to wear with those shoes, so I designed one myself. That is where the entire idea really came to fruition, a lot of people don’t realize that I never even intended for anyone else to have that shirt other than myself. But there was such a positive response to the initial mock up design that I decided to release it.
DJ GQ: Progressing in a Recession…R.I.P. WAMO
On September - 8 - 2009
We got in contact with 2x Pittsburgh Hip Hop Awards winner of the DJ of the year awards and asked him to touch on a couple things he’s seen in the city, The closing of WAMO, The grind of Pittsburgh artists and his hidden talent…WAMO (Pittsburgh number one station for hip hop and R&B) Closed it’s doors today at 6pm. We knew it was coming prior to this interview but here’s was DJ GQ had to say…Enjoy!
ForTheCritics.com: You’ve been doing the DJ thing in Pittsburgh for as long as I can remember, what got you started or interested in DJing?
DJ GQ: My dad is a Dj so i caught the dj bug when i was like 12 and then at around 14 I was doing parties all through high school and college. My mom used to sing so music was just always around so it was a natural thing for me to do.
ForTheCritics.com: So while you were paying your dues to get where you are now, What were some of the more difficult things you had to overcome?
GQ: Just getting in the game here [Pittsburgh] I mean I had to stay patient and I was really big on not stepping on toes to get ahead just had to wait for my turn and I kept trying to work on being better. To this day as far as PGH goes mad respect for Dj Rok and Shorty D, Before I even lived here those two ran shit and they still do, I always respected them for keeping it real…
