Rise is about bringing people together. We have to enjoy our lives. It is my way of starting over, rising from the ashes like a phoenix, and becoming the best version of myself! Our Clothing provides unique, and very stylish, personalized options.
Where are you located? How is the music scene there?
I am from Baraboo, WI. The music scene is blowing up this way, and the variation in style is drawing in crowds. Artist like; Lucidity, Prophecy, Tha Mid City Kid, Kujo U No, Young Beezy, FastLaneTrell, and my lil brother, Tranquility, are all tremendous artists who are gifted in their own ways. We on the RISE!

What are some goals you’d like to accomplish in the future?
I’d like to help my community, and become a public figure that people can look up to. Im determined to get my own shop where I can sell my merchandise, and have a studio.
What advice would you give to aspiring entrepreneurs & musicians?
Invest in your self! At the end of the day you will feel so much better about yourself. Think of it this way; seeing people wear you’re designs, and investing in you when they could’ve went to Nike, is an amazing sense of accomplishment. NEED CUSTOM MERCHANDISE? If you have a logo or design send it over and watch your Empire RISE!
