Well the folx at my barbershop always calls somebody "cool" instead of "cuz" or "homeboy" or "sir." Example...."Wuzzup Cool" Everytime i went to get my haircut, they were callin somebody "cool".... Example...."How you want it, cool?" So i took that sheit, and replaced the "C" with a "K", and came up with "Kool". Kinda like the cigarettes that your smokin elder relative (auntie, uncle...) smokes. :wink:

WoW... Prepare yourself for this one.... ReDD Harlem Dev'iLL Which originally was DeViuS DeV'iLL and THAT was my tag from High School and being apart of my fam of Artist, we had a few names that we'd toss around. Now the Harlem came from me moving to Harlem in '95, and I would constantly shout it out, wherever I was it was always HAAAARLEM!!! So people just got used to me saying that and started callin me that after a while (actually Young Harlem)... which I really couldn't stand cuz I was from BrooKlyn, but after '99 the name stucK with me! So I put Harlem with my other name (DeV'iLL) and that had a nice ring to it. ReDD came from being my color of choice. That plus it's a lucKy color for me, when I wear it good things happen Soooo it went from Harlem DeV'iLL to ReDD Harlem DeV'iLL. And I've used it and gone by it since 01... Also, I wrote this story which I might just turn into a Movie or get it published into a booK, and the main Character is a ReDD Harlem DeV'iLL :twisted: I tell you what tho... Online is not going to be the only place you see this name. Q calls it the DeV'iLL TaKeOver cuz there are quite a few of us now :arrow: ReDD Harlem :arrow: V.A. Ne'Gro (BlacK) :arrow: BrooKlyn Bleu There are more, but you will meet them later (Maybe)...

MILA, simply put, came from what all of you refer to me on the site.... MaMa_J...was played out and it was time for sumthing sweet and simple... I couldnt get no simpler than MILA...so thats what I did... Oddly enough tho....besides all of you HBCU heads and a few other people from school....no one refers to me as Mila....its usually, Jamila, J, or MiMi...

I read a lot and I'm a fan of the Negro Leagues baseball team and ppl say I can pop up and disapear at will and it freaks them out..so... Baron: a nobleman (in various countries) of varying rank and a very wealthy or powerful businessman(starting a new business after leaving my old one) Spectre Something preternaturally visible; an apparition; a ghost; a phantom. Thus BaronSpectre.....

I think that is very creative.
