On this weeks episode of LYP we spoke with BAARI own… Joshmere Muhammad
It’s damn near impossible to go outside in our city of Akron without seeing BAARI pieces of art everywhere. I specifically call them pieces of art because it’s much more than a clothing brand, in fact it’s not a clothing brand at all it’s a designer brand and their clothes can be seen all over the world but in Akron Baari has become synonymous with our city.
I enjoyed being able to build with this young brother and get some insight into his story and where it all started.
One of the things that always stood out to me about BAARI was the powerful messaging included in the art. Joshmere talked to us about his conversion into Islam as a young man, and once he heard The Honorable Louis Farrakhan speak for the first time he said “whatever you do, make sure you do it for your people” the idea of Baari begun.
One of the biggest things I appreciate about Josh was how much he values his wife and children and how much their support has helped in building him as a man and a creator.
By far one of my favorite episodes, we talked about music, fatherhood, marriage, and good business. We are better together than we are a part.
