In this episode of No Ceilings, Glasses Malone and the crew dive into the intersection of hip-hop, fashion, and branding, highlighting Shara and Kev's creative work while debating why simplicity often makes the strongest statement in merchandise design. Glasses breaks down standout pieces from the 110 and Cancel collections, including the raised "T" hat, and explains why overly complicated designs can weaken a brand's identity. The conversation also offers an update on the long-awaited 110 album, plans to complete the project with Akon, and a vision for expanding 110 into a lifestyle movement through merchandise inspired by drag-racing culture with appeal beyond hip-hop.

The discussion shifts to West Coast music history as the crew celebrates new music from Kurupt and Battlecat, recognizing Battlecat as one of the architects of the Los Angeles sound and calling for more producer-artist collaborations in the tradition of Battlecat, Snoop Dogg, and Warren G. They also examine hip-hop's DJ and producer-driven origins, how record labels shifted attention toward rappers, and why accountability, loyalty, and collective creativity remain essential to the culture. Ultimately, Glasses explains how 110 represents more than music or merchandise—it's a movement built around togetherness, authenticity, and preserving the values that made hip-hop powerful.

No Ceilings is hosted by rapper, Crip gang member, and social pundit Glasses Malone with assistance from his co-host Peter Bas. Every week, the two discuss people and things that are despised, loathed, and generally unliked by mainstream society. From prostitutes and white supremacists to Satanists and rapist, No Ceilings examines and attempts to diagnose those things we have labeled as Pariahs. A lifestyle and culture podcast featuring conversations with the intent to sway the pendulum on one’s way of thinking. As individuals are culturally bound to experiences that result in different responses - No Ceilings tough discussions, typically from opposing sides, will break down life’s interpretations.
