POLO SPORT BREAKS DOWN THE PHOTO SHOOT

Feb 9, 2013 at 12pm to 6pm you set up a polo photo shoot in Boston mass at Malcolm X park in roxbury, any reason why?





polo sport


I set up for that date because of  two reasons. One being that due to the fact that most of the photo shoots are done in New York and they have the calender year on lock and Feb 9. was a date that was available and reason number two is a Boston photo shoot is long overdue. People have been asking me about a photo shoot in Boston for the past few years so I figured it was about time for Boston to have one.

is there a theme for the photo shoot?

There is no theme to the shoot and the reason I chose no theme is due to the fact that a lot of cats here do not have a lot vintage pieces or power pieces so to make sure everyone is included I chose to have everyone just come through fresh and represent like they know how to..


why did you choose that specific location?

The locations I chose where do to scenery and to show the people of Boston how LOlifes get down. To show them how FRESH and LO down is supposed to be. To show them the lifestyle and that this is not a game. Fashion and fresh should be apart of your everyday lifestyle and the LOLIFES are the creators of this and we are going to show you how this goes.

is it an open photo shoot or LOLIFEs only?

This shoot is open to everybody that reps the culture and the lifestyle. There aren't that many LOLIFEs in Boston so I wanted to make it an open so everyone can bring their own flare to the shoot. The pictures will go out to Facebook, Instagram, and twitter. Hopefully this will be the start of something big for the city and other affiliations as well and hopefully the pictures will show that. I want everyone to experience this, wives and kids are invited.

the brotherLO they call HAZ

what memories come to mind when you hear LOlifes 25th year  anniversary?

I think of Going to Coney Island, The Deuce or Walks to Pitkin, we would get dip, Thirst with the cazals, Dis with two different color dunks on, live with his Astro's hat and myself with the Levis suit.. Just me and brothers, surviving the jungle and making it happen, bagging chicks, chilling hard daily defending each other, no beef no fights no hate or jealousy, amongst us, Not once thinking what we were doing was anything more then being together, LOLIFES was just us, that's all nothing else our team, doing us.

 what was your typical day like in the early days of LOlifes?

Again we didn't have a leader, in my age group we were all leaders. So you didn't know who would have a plan that day, but you knew someone would, I would either be heading downtown, or bombing the IRT's, getting paid, or linking with some pieces, we would get up.. bum around the hood, of course back then, the classic pieces flowed like water, so we were some fresh dressed bums, Lo sweats or shorts for swimming trunks, walking around the hood patrolling the block, taking calls on the corner phone, running back and forth to the store... these were the lighter times. There were times when we had beef with up to 4 different housing complexes at once, we would be fired on during the middle of the afternoon, I used to wear a vest to go to the corner store for my mother, and I sometimes took a weapon when i escorted her to the store, it was the best and the worst of time.

how did you get your name HAZ?

I started writing graffiti, I chose hazardous, which changed to hazerdust, then Hazer and then to HAZUNO.. but people most refer to me as HAZ.


















what did you want to accomplish with putting this book together?

To show civilians (non LL's), that we are a true family, that we live together, that its more than clothing that binds us, that when we say love and loyalty, it's from the heart, That we are fathers, and business men, that our brotherhood is real.

did you work with anyone else in producing this project?

I did the entire layout, and 98% of the photography, "Eugene HATCHER" canone, also contributed some images, and a few were taking from our families around the world.

how did you come about designing the logos for the Lolife families?

I'm the Thugeek! it's a known fact, I was always a computer head since the early years, so to get into computer graphics was natural progression, I was responsible for almost all of thirsts and a few of Racks early covers. It's just what I do.

are there any more projects coming from you in the future?

Another pictorial and pushing the Lo-end theory, and a few I cannot speak on.
