A
few days ago, VLONE, a street brand that was once a popular street brand, issued a sudden statement announcing that it is also the founder Director A$AP Bari parted ways. The statement stated, “He has no authority to style authority as ‘Mr. Vlone’, use or license VLONE,” indicating that A$AP Bari no longer has authority to take any action against VLONE and will be completely shut out of the door. He also said, “This behavior is organized to our collective.” Stressing that A$AP Bari’s actions are harmful to the VLONE team and are contrary to the brand’s beliefs and spirit, the exact reason for the split is not yet known, but the phrase “will not participate in any irrational behavior” is evocative of the sexual assault case that broke out in A$AP Bari in 2017.
