    When he kept bringing up the fact that "he's 16 and you're older than him so you need to grow up", that shit aggravated me. I'm 16 and we are old enough to know about plagiarism! That's something that we literally learn in school. He just tried to victimize himself the whole time and it was embarrassing 🫠... and he tried to lie to make it seem like he reached out to you is crazy. Just take accountability for your mistakes. Saying that you're 16 and because of that, you shouldn't face any repercussions for shit you do feels like you're immature as hell. 🤷🏾‍♀ That shit was embarrassing...

    It's too similar for anyone to genuinely believe your ideas were not taken.💀 The fact that he kept emphasizing his "hard work" as if you didn't start your brand packaging orders WITHOUT a warehouse, WORKING HARD while still in college. Like cmon now. People see the outcome and assume you didn't put in the work and effort for these ideas, so it's wrong for him to make a copy and try to profit off of that.

    It doesn't matter if he's 16 or not. Like you said plagiarism is plagiarism. It's illegal. Teachers won't care if you're 16, it's still a serious offense. This shows how he doesn't take it seriously and he needs to figure it out before he really gets in trouble. You can't just steal people's ideas. He definitely was defensive because he kept throwing the 16 year old, I work minimum wage, I didn't make a penny story over and over. That's the alibi he's prepared from day one it seems. It's not the fact he copied a rainbow.... he copied the exact same color scheme as her website. Like do you mean to tell me there's not a billion other ways the website could have been made with a rainbow? But he just copied her website 100% to the tea. He been following both her pages. He is one of those people that see someone get successful then try to follow the exact recipe to reach where they are. But it's really pathetic when you're unoriginal and just plagiarize someone else's work. And I bet if you see his camera roll, he was exactly trying to replicate her business. Gabi didn't do anything wrong except call out someone for plagiarizing her work, which he clearly was. At 16 years old, he can finally learn plagiarism isn't okay.

I understand plgerism is serious but this is still a kid and I garuntee she loses 0 dollars and 0 cents from them making their brand , this could have easily been a shady post nit exposing their name on her spam of her laughing it off but it's thos weird cid of exposing this kid .

She simply spoke on how she felt like her logo and website design was copied. Mind you.. she wasn’t the one looking for him (just like you mentioned multi million dollar companies don’t look for people designing street wear and sue them). I’m not on either side but right is right. She is ALSO a SMALL BUSINESS OWNER, that started young, you didn’t see her copying the same website as the person she seen it with first. If you have anything of you’re own or created by you, you can understand to an extent of something being copied, praised, and manipulated. So when or if does start to make money from his brand.. at the end of the day I’m sure she’s not worried about the money he’s making. It’s the principle and respect like she said.

Clearly he was inspired by her branding and clothing designs but that doesn’t mean just COPY it, that’s bad business. You should WANT an original brand anyway smh.

    That’s fine if he wants to start a business young, good for you. But I didn’t like how he kept calling you old as his only defense mechanism. He repeated it at least 3x in each video clip he made. We get the point, but now it’s not really helping his point, just making it seem manipulated.

Also the fact that he’s saying being 22 is OLD?! BRUHH and he’s also saying to call him little boy bc sir means that you’re old. This kid needs to go to school or sum.

When I KNOW he’s been Watchin you for a bit and felt super inspired. There is nun wrong with being inspired, what’s wrong is when you take an idea and don’t ask the person if you can use them as inspiration. If they say yes, you still have to give credit where it is DUE. I’m scared for the future cuz like wtf is going on 😭. But Gabby just know you are doing sum right.

The designer, even if she doesn’t do agreements or contracts, should’ve done a consultation to understand the client and request, those consultations allow me to understand who I am working for. Just because they have the same idea, doesn’t mean they are the same person, I can think of ways to have altered the young man’s designs to tailor who he is and represent his brand as well as hers where there may have been some similarities but not too much. he straight up jacked her stuff all the way down to the website, that was the ultimate red flag for me.

    You’re trusting and have a big heart, nothing wrong with you paying the artist 500 but in business you can’t hope for loyalty. Contracts and contracts only. If you want exclusivity you can discuss a deal with the artist and write up a contract that’s specifies that. It’s sad in the business world a lot of people do not have integrity and they will take full advantage of people that do

Secondly She plastered his face on the internet after he made a video about her, if he had just ignored her fans in his dm due to the fact that he knew he was guilty he made a video filled with bluntant lies saying "how he reached out to her" (he didnt he was blocked) " he didnt know the artist that made her cartoons (he very much did) and more, it would have been better if he had apologised and held himself accountable for his actions instead of trying to victimize himself ( which is probably the reason localblackchild made this video to address it), and Thirdly your saying she should have messaged him, when her fans already messaged him, i bet if this was a random person copying her she would have messaged him and spoke things out but for the fact that he follows her even on her spam means that he been knew about her and knew what he was doing , and why do u think she should have make a post laughing it off, what part of plagarism do u see as a joke, please enlighten me so we can laugh then. And u cant say she loses no money from this as an excuse please whether she lost money or not its wrong to steal multitple things from someone who put hard work and time to their business. It not that hard to atleast renovate some ideas of her but the full on copying is sad.

I have friends who are artists and designers that have experienced this too and it's not cool! I learned so much in my Advertising, Marketing and Promotion course that the big companies will indeed sue you so as you continue to grow please seek legal representation b/c unfortunately, these copycats exist and that's me being nice It's interesting how they like to play victim with no accountability while taking shots at you.

    He’s trying to weaponize his age, the fact that people support Black males regardless, and his LGBTQ affiliation to silence you. I hate this new wave of kids who try to play in everyone’s face and act oblivious. Had you not “say anything” now and he blew up, he’d still be saying you’re “old” but now clout chasing cause his brand is better and you’re jealous. “You don’t own colors” pissed me off so bad like he’s being obtuse for no reason and to be offended by calling him sir because it’s agin him… that means him calling you old is a derogatory thing and he hasn’t been respectful to you at all cause how is him saying ma’am respectful but you saying sir isn’t? He was tryna be nice nasty and use ma’am as a dig. I hate when stupid people think they’re so clever and everyone else is stupid too. Idk why people, especially our own, think it’s ok to ride the coattails of Black women and steal from them to succeed. I’m not sure if you mentioned it, but if you haven’t already I’d look into trademarking that design (probably did already since you’re selling) and strike up a deal with the artists you use in writing where they give all rights of the drawing to you so they can’t use the same design for others to avoid this.

    I’m TIRED of these teens these days acting so bold playing the victim! When he said he’s only 16 and he’s investing all this money and blah blah blah I got flashbacks to when I ordered two bracelets from a small business I saw on tiktok. Months went by & she never sent me a confirmation for tracking & I would comment nicely on her page asking about it, but I see her posting about other ppls orders. I got tired of it and started showing my anger/concern because this girl has my money and I have no items for her. So one day she finally replied back and played the victim saying how she’s so young, she goes to school and practice, her business is helping support her family, she tries to get back to everyone and that I’m bullying her etc. honey, if you’re so young with so many things going on…you should not be doing a business. She didn’t even have her DMS OPEN TO CONTACT HER. You’re a business. I even had a small business while working and going to school too but I always made sure I replied back to people…you’re not wrong at all Gabby. And the cartoon artist shouldn’t have worked with him. She knew damn well he was copying you.

If he wants to have a brand and it becoming successful he needs to handle things correctly and bby he's 2 years close to being a young adult. Please don't pull the "I'm just a kid" card. Making a clothing line is a serious thing that you have to commit to and if you feel you're too young to communicate with other clothing lines about mix ups your DEFINITELY NOT ready for this industry.

Further more he is not a victim of anything, how can he say her was trying to be nice but then calls her old. And he said don’t call me sir I’m a kid, your old.
