formalities

Sorry,

This should have been our very first post! It's just a little insight of where and how we came about. Let's say a small introduction into barely_broke...

The name originally stemmed from the line '..not filthy rich, but bitch i'm barely broke ' - taken from Lord Tarique & Peter Gunz's seminal party anthem 'Deja Vu (Uptown Baby)'.

Founded by a group of upper-middle class folk living in Bangkok (Thailand), barely_broke did not become official till the 05-06 season, though it had been floating around for some time.

Early exposure to the so-called 'good life', that is, free-flowing alcohol and cruisy late nights formed the ideals and values to which barely broke is based upon.

Essentially it is not only a concept, but more so a lifestyle. The phrase 'barely_broke' is a double entendre. It stands to represent where we are now and where we will be in the future.

Nuff said, i'm out!

Words by Nang, for barely_broke productions

p.s. Hope you and the 'boyz' are satisfied now Lao!
