If u are from OKC and know his family or friends please DM so u can get him some help. I will for sure make sure we get this fixed and I encourage all to check on your mentally ill loved ones because the world my not be as understanding as me."
"Love and Respect. Thank 'Kinfolks' of Edgewood for making sure we know the real deal. Swipe to see the signature he left and his face," Mike continued. Before concluding his post, he assured fans that everything will be fine as saying, "No worries #TheSWAGshop will be ok and Happy Kwanzaa to ya'll!"

Mike and his wife Shay Render opened their first SWAG (Shave, Wash And Groom) shop back in 2011 in Atlanta. The pair also built a permanent store overlooking the State Farm Arena. Speaking of his barbershop inside the home of home to the Atlanta Hawks, he told The Undefeated, "I'm overwhelmed."
"Everything I do is with the imagination and dream of a kid who grew up 4,5 miles from here where we are standing. I wanted to open a barbershop up when I was a kid. I wanted to be a rapper when I was a kid," he added. "I wanted to own parts of my community like middle-class blacks that I knew since I was a kid... To me, this is a dream fulfilled."
