1. What made you want to work in fashion?
The streets did, they came to me and said you're out here buying all this fly fashion for yourself why dont u invest in yourself and do fashion for us big guys they can't get in Versace or Gucci? I made it happen and that's how I got started plus, my family was into fashion as well so it was really apart of my life.
2. What's your plans in the future for your brand?
My plan is to dress the up and coming, I'm not saying I won't work with the masses but I'm independent so me personally I don't mind trying to help the people that are coming up like me, then I'm branching off to movies, commercials etc..
3. You own three companies, which is amazing. Can you explain the difference between the three?
Yes, the difference is one is a music company which is Bosses That Meet Bosses music group the others are my own custom made clothing company which is called Dessalines clothing private collection.

My new line of trench coats they are going to be awesome some will have fur and some won't but I promise you they will be exclusive fashion like no other.
6. People call you "P Diddit". Where did that nickname come from?
Well that came from people who thought I was never doing anything cause I'm always so quiet about my projects. So when they saw me moving they had no idea how fast I was doing so . Right when they thought I wasn't doing anything here I am with all these projects coming up. It was like that dude has done it again, from the point on i became P.diddit. I actually love the name.

You can call or 617 4449547 or www.facebook.com/polo thefurking orwww.facebook.com/exclusivefashionandfurs fan page website being design but my catalog is onwww.myspace.com/exclusivefashion4real & you can follow me @twitter/thefurking @fashionfurreal as well
8. Being a businessman and a driven person. What advice can you give others who are trying to start a business or want to build their brand?
Get a strong team not a lot of people but just a few that have your best interest at hand like a manager & a Public Relations person. Then stay focused on yourself as well definitely getting your internet buzz up & don't let anybody tell you that you cant do it. Take that T off can't and start saying you can just get your mine right, your time tight, your grind right, and God will see the way from there. I want to thank God 1st and I definitely want to thank Tahitia Allante for doing an incredible interview on me with people like you there is no me from designer Polo TheFurKing
