About This Piece

Talk was cheap and everybody around here knew exactly how cheap.

Authenticity showed up in action, never in whatever version got told about it later.

A handshake still meant something before contracts ever came into the picture.

Every Statement Has a Cultural Source

Street Talk Designs is the only statement brand backed by its own hip-hop dictionary. OG Randy, born and raised in Brooklyn NY, spent 15 years documenting the real language of the culture — every phrase, every expression, every declaration the streets created. Every design in this store is rooted in that same tradition.
