I'm From The Fake Side Of The Family
For the one who can spot the difference between showing up and being there
Claim the fake side and the whole room laughs — because everybody knows exactly who you're talking about.
Fake names the 'fake ones': the ones who play friend to your face and stranger behind your back.
This is for the survivors of the fake — the ones who clocked it, called it, and kept it real.
Wearing it says you learned the lesson and you're still standing.
Real recognizes real; this side just announces it.

For the real ones — the truth-tellers, the survivors of fake friendships. The gift names the type, not the name.

Every Statement Has a Cultural Source
Street Talk Designs is rooted in documented hip-hop and urban street language. OG Randy, born and raised in Brooklyn, spent years documenting the language of the culture in Street Talk: Da Official Guide To Hip-Hop and Urban Slanguage. Some designs use documented slang; others draw from the broader cultural territory of humor, family, faith, personality, and everyday expression.
