The Virginia native has been doing well, aside from a recent backlash over comments he made at his 5th annual Black Ambition Demo Day on Nov. 14. He caused quite a stir when he tried to encourage young creatives to ignore race in the pursuit of their craft.
“Do you think for what it is that you do, do you think you’re the best? Do you want the job because you’re Black or because you’re the best?” he asked. “Do you want someone to support your startup because you’re Black or because you’re the best?”
He also expressed his hatred of politics, prompting further comments directed at the fashionista.
“As we look at what’s going on in the current political climate, I hate politics,” he said in a clip shared on X. “Like, despise them. It’s a magic trick. It’s not real. I don’t believe in either side. Because I think when you pick a side, you are inadvertently supporting division.”
