I heard that the Two By Four location in Philly opened roughly a year ago had closed so I messaged Van to make sure. Here’s his commentary on the store’s closing, the future of Two By Four and his current opinions on the state of hip hop:
“Ok yeah so we closed up the Philly store. Kind of a bummer but hopefully its a step backwards to take two steps forward. Basically the Philly store just wasn’t doing enough business. We were losing money every month so we had to pull the plug. Although it sucks to not have something in Center City I think its going to be better for Two by Four over all. We are working on making the NJ location even stronger. Its already getting a nice make over and inventory is beefing up. The goal is to have one store that has everything instead of two watered down versions. We will continue to do events here at the NJ location and have plans to do some things in Philly even with the absence of the store. We have been working hard on a new website/online store so pay attention for a new look over at TwobyFourStore.com. The new site will be hitting the www May 10th so set your bookmarks now. Thanks to everyone that supported the Philly store. We really appreciate it. Hopefully we will still be seeing all you guys. Van Homan
PS Gucci Mane sucks. The Fabolous mixtape is amazing.”
Gucci Mane’s the best and Fab’s mixtape sucked, but keep in mind Van is now 30 years old and very, very white so please don’t hold his statements here against him! Seriously though best of luck to him, there’s nothing wrong with small failures if you learn from them and they help you get where you’re going in the long run.
