Hibernation or Procrastination

ViewsFromTheTrap sat down with Starks, creator of Black Codes, for a raw conversation straight from the block. He opened up about his upbringing, the roots of his brand, and how it’s driven by the Black struggle and his deep love for Queens. Starks spoke on staying grounded, chasing legacy, and using his art to spread truth and unity. The talk was unfiltered and real — the type of story that makes you feel the pain, pride, and purpose behind his movement. It’s a message for anyone grinding to build something bigger than themselves while staying true to their roots.For anything related to viewsfromthetrap hit the link belowhttps://linktr.ee/Viewsfromthetrap?fbclid=PAAabcH8r4kw_TJ8Wmr8ISU9rnEvGD5DqjBBO4Ukz_gcc86AktumeSt1k81_E
