“Everyone is born a millionare, you just gotta get the check” ~ Justin Obida

You gotta love a good quote. The one above was given to me personally by Justin “JussBaby” Obida (24), who holds the spot of Founder/CEO of The Million Dollar Baby Society – a group of young men in South Florida. At first glance one would think that these fellas are a new rap group or just some flashy dudes with colorful sneakers, but the real objective of the group is so much deeper. The men of the MDB $ociety vow to promote positivity and never settle for what our community expects from us, but to instead go above and beyond the norm. Justin’s nephew, Jovon “JovonDaDon” Gary (17), also leads Million Dollar Baby and, of course, has a major fanbase at his high school, where they even tried implementing MDB in their senior photos. All the while my damn high school was on lockdown for smoking weed and fighting at homecoming.

But I digress.

Other members of this rapidly-expanding crew include, Nino McFly, an acclaimed rapper, Durell Smith, a producer/skateboarder, and so many more from here to China (literally). The Million Dollar Baby Society is making major moves in 2008 — from a clothing/sneaker project, to exclusive worldwide parties, and even their own independent reality series. You can expect to see and hear more from these fellas very soon.

Check out more photos of the MDB $ociety under the cut and hit them up on Myspace!
