When I was 15, that was the dopest thing in the world for me. So for me, it's just about expressing myself, things that I like. It's just my style now, I guess. It's just a part of me and kind of who I am. My parents are not big fans of it, but... But, you know, I think me seeing them, you know, seeing me have, you know, success on the field, it gives them some type of relaxation. Yeah.
