For our grand series return, we spent some quality time with Orie, lead designer and founder of the Fourplay brand. Humble but fully aware of what he can accomplish as well as what he has accomplished, Ories skillset and growing resume provide him a confidence and calm that seems to be missing in todays creative landscape. From start to finish we spoke about everything from his beginnings as an illustrator, how New York has influenced him, his guest cameos in Busta Rhymes videos (nah forreal), designing for A$AP Ferg (nah forreal FORREAL), the true purpose of a creative, and how clout could be one helluva drug. Check out the interview (which lasted until the sun started setting on us) as well as the gallery down below.
Keep tapping in with us as we continue our Artistocracy series and always feel free to send artist suggestions to our Instagram @_downtothesole_.
