Just when you think Urb1 can’t find something you never seen before, we do it again! And not only did we bring you something new, but you’ll probably recognize this clothing line once you see all the videos, tv shows, and other media outlets this clothing line has been featured on. And before you say “Why do I recognize the kid in the pic?”, it’s the kid from Jay-Z’s “H to the Izzo”.. Better known as Lil’ Dulow.

(URB1) WHAT UP DULOW? I SEE YOU HAVE ONE OF THE MOST CELEBRITY OWNED CLOTHING LINES OUT. YOU HAVE OVER 5 YEARS HISTORY OF THE TOP CELEBRITIES WEARING WEARING DULOW CLOTHING. SO I KNOW THERE’S GOT TO BE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE, THAT HAVE SEEN YOUR GEAR AND THOUGHT “WHAT’S THAT THEY ARE WEARING” OR “WHERE CAN I GET DULOW?”. SO I GUESS WE GOTTA GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT AND DROP THAT 411 ON THEM! SO LETS MOVE ON INTO THIS INTERVIEW HOMEY.

(DuLow) Hot Rod and Urb1, what up? It’s Tuesday, 10 P.M., in Los Angeles, CA, and I’m tired as you know what, from the crazy NBA black holiday….lol.. You know blacks go crazy over b-ball and all across the world, LOL… But yea, I’m just getting back on my feet from all the parties and promotion I was doing for Dulow at the Jay-Z video shot in Los Angeles with Beyonce, his girl, last Tuesday…. It was fun, but the parties for the NBA like Big Snoop Dogg’s party, OUtkast, Busta Rhymes, Lil Kim, Shaq’s party, Ludacris, Nelly, mannnn everybody and they momma! Even this bomb Hollywood street called Sunset where everybody hang with all the stars be at was crazy!

Well skip all that, lets talk about my Dulow clothing company right quick before my tired butt fall asleep… I work and been running DuLow now for almost 5 years (5 in Sept.) and I been blessed by all my friends who are in the entertainment industry such as Ray-J, Brandy, Romeo from the Steve Harvey show (RIP: I love you my nig), B2K, and Nick Cannon. You can even see DuLow in Nick’s latest movie “Love Don’t Cost A Thing”. Snoop Dogg will be rocking it in his new movie “To Soul Plane”, next month. Ashanti and Samuel Jackson new movie in October called “Coach Carter” which is filming right now, Shaq, Lala from MTV, the “You Got Served” movie, 50 cent In Da Club video, Ja Rule and Ashanti “Mezmerized” video… Man, I’ve just been blessed! Now I’m getting it in more stores all by myself. I’m grinding but I’m learning as I go and it’s fun because I’m guiding my own destiny.

All profit goes to me until I get a 100 million dollar clothing deal!

(URB1) SO STARTING OUT, HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE NAME DULOW?

(DuLow)I came up with the name from a friend that told me “I love to Dulow”… Take chances in life… It’s an L.A. slang that most west coast rappers say. Snoop, West Side Connection, and Dr. Dre all refer to Dulow in their music and it’s really catch I must say. Dulow is never going nowhere trust me!

(URB1) DO YOU PLAN ON MAKING ANY SUB-DULOW LINES LIKE THE “CALIFORNIA SERIES” OR WHAT NOT?

(DuLow) I’m coming out with Baby Dulow.. My son, his 3 year old self, models for GAP, Sean John, and Baby Dulow. He does everything all by himself and he loves it! He’s a little star out here in Los Angeles. Check him out on Dulow.com, the Baby DuLow page!

(URB1) WHO WAS THE 1ST CELEBRITY TO ROCK DULOW AND HOW HARD WAS IT TO GET THEM IN YOUR GEAR?

(DuLow) The first star to rock Dulow was Ray-J. He had it own during an episode of UPN great, Moesha… Since then, like I said, you’ve seen Nick Cannon and Romeo from “The Steve Harvey Show” (miss him for real) in Dulow! We all came up togethor! Ken from “The Parkers” also. We stay homies no matter what!! We have each others back all day…

(URB1) ISN’T DULOW ALSO IN B2K’S NEW MOVIE “YOU GOT SERVED” BEING ROCKED BY THE ORIGINAL GROUP THEMSELF?

(DuLow) Yea, if you goto Dulow.com you’ll see pictures of them rocking it on the set. They are some really cool friends of mine.

(URB1) I KNOW YOU WERE DOING A MODEL SEARCH.. ARE YOU STILL DOING IT? MALE OR FEMALE?

(DuLow) I’m looking for models, but in a way I have too many right now. But I still haven’t found that super model yet, if you know what I mean… lol… If you know where she at Rod, let me know… Los Angeles do have some cute women, New York too… The A train women in New York, they are so sexy, catching the train home or to work! You can’t really see the L.A. women because they are always driving and not catching trains.

(URB1) WHERE DO YOU SEE DULOW IN 4 YEARS?

(DuLow) In 4 years, I see Dulow for real!!! All around the world, on tv, and video too much! It’s going to be a house hold name.

And even with all the work I’ve put into getting Dulow in past, present, and upcoming videos, I feel it’s time for the Dulow name to expand more. I’m starting a record label called “Dulow Records”. Why not? I know every rapper in Los Angeles. I also know some hot artists over in New York!

(URB1) Damn, so that’s what’s up JaCorey! You making those power moves and it’s paying off. Urb1 will have to get with you in coming months to give people updates. Much love for doing the interview and I wish you well kyd.
