An Ode to the Open 🎾 by Richard LaBennett ✍🏾

Logos logos logos, all in your face
American Express and Chase 💳
pinned all over the place
Grey Goose & Moet 🥂
To match my Rolex ⌚️
with Ralph Lauren Polo 🐎 circling the net
A whole lot of shopping 🛍️
And a lot of people walking
From the Grandstands to Armstrong
and the lore of Arthur Ashe 🏟️
All these bougie people in here
spending their cash 💸💸💸
Honey Deuces galore
As we cheer the overhead smash 💥
One hits the ball forward one hits the ball back
Just know that I am rooting for everyone Black 💪🏾
Now… Quiet on the courts 🤫
no rude sounds and put away that damn flash 📸
We didn’t come here to see you
I came to see Taylor’s fine ass 😍
and Coco, and Naomi
and Tiafoe, and Shelton!!
Hats off to these Champions! 🏆
YES! Cheers to BLK XCLLNC!
Just a day in September,
Summer sports in the sun! ☀️

Brolympians after hours. 🎱🇯🇵

One thing you can count on—we compete at whatever we do. Iron sharpens iron. ⚔️🛡️

A friendly game? Turns into a full-scale team competition. 😏 I mean, how else do you turn a “guys trip” into The BROlympics?

It’s in the name. 🤷🏾‍♂️ @thebrolympians

What is the soft life? A nice car? A fancy vacation? Champagne and a massage? Is it a thing, or is it a mentality? Maybe, it’s simply an approach to the life you’re living. Flexible, patient, kind, curious, and open to the beautiful moments. Are you “soft” enough to enjoy it when it happens? The secret 🤫 is that it makes those moments manifest more frequently. Yes I’m blessed, but I chose the soft life a long time ago 🌊

I’m not really a Mercedes-Benz guy, but I did enjoy pushing this CLE Coupe from @sixt around the island this summer. Very nice.

InvestFest ‘26 in the bag. Had a good time in the A.

Just walking around bumped into some good friends from A&T. I ran into NO LESS than 20 Aggies over the course of the weekend. WE EVERYWHERE!! @j_a_b_a_r_i

BE. ‘01, ‘03, ‘22, ‘23, and ‘24. Two decades separate us but the march towards the light is eternal 🤙🏾

My favorite session of the entire program 🏡🔨👷🏽‍♂️🏗️
They motivated me to lean in further on my development mission and gave some very key points to do that. Thank you @thevanessacole @abrammitchell_ 👏🏾

The key to InvestFest is to pick your sessions wisely

🗣️ HIGH LEVEL CONVERSATIONS!!

Well done fellas 👏🏾 @19_keys @vicmensa @vanlathan

The Vendor Marketplace was prime for networking and seeing what people had to offer 💎🏪🛍️💰

My 2nd favorite session. She gave us things we could implement IMMEDIATELY. Well done @alicialyttle Thank you!

⁨ BE. ‘91, ‘92, ‘01 🤙🏾⁩ ‪@strype‬⁩

Day 2 kicked it hard with @j_a_b_a_r_i and @travbond The Money Team 💰

This was a goodie too. Didn’t know they had so many products in the suite. Opened my eyes to deeper levels of investment and ways to dig deeper into certain parts of the market 📈📈📈

Standing around minding my business and who do I see at the Singles Lounge. Theeeee Attorney Miya! 🤗@miyaenergy

I came with the goal of networking with like minded people who are about their business and that’s exactly what happened 🍊💵💲🪎

Another great conversation…

My boy @j_a_b_a_r_i was locked in on the Clothing & Apparel sessions. InvestFest is WHAT YOU MAKE IT.

My new “Business Aunties” 😆 I can’t wait to work with them. Everytime I came in the Vendor Marketplace they would say, “Hey Nephew!” 👋🏾 I already love them. One is a private funding champion and the other is a franchise placement expert. We are going to do something fun and lucrative 📌

One time for the details as Larry June would say 🤌🏾 and shout out to my boy @hecties on the custom 👔 dress shirts I wore all weekend and this James Bond business gray suit fit like new money 💵 Yessirrrrrr.

July 6. 🎉

I don’t typically make a big fuss about birthdays, or holidays, for that matter. I’ve always believed life is meant to be celebrated every day. If you’ve been following me, you’ve probably seen that philosophy show up in how I’m choosing to live this chapter of my life. 😌

I received so many messages, calls, and well wishes, and I’m genuinely grateful for every single one. Thank you to everyone who took a moment to reach out. I don’t take that love for granted. ☺️🥰🤗

To another year of growth, great people, new experiences, nice things, and living life by design. 🥂

Much love. 🤲🏾🙏🏾❤️‍🔥🎁

Soulful Saturday. The goal was never to escape work.

The goal was to build a life where the work creates moments like these.

Book my Tulum Villas 🇲🇽🏠🌊☀️ @casaveletatulum @casaheaventulum

Lifestyle design isn’t about luxury.
It’s about ownership.

Some days I’m swimming.
Some days I’m skimming leaves.
Most days… I’m doing both.

Own your time.
Own your choices.

Own the life you’re creating. taken in Tulum, México by @rlabennett
