You should recognize the name! I have covered him several times; from his Lootswaay Fest music events to his Lootswaay apparel, I have come to know, love, and appreciate Robert Reasons Brown! We were able to recently connect and chat a bit about what he has been up to. Reasons finished school in May and will be graduating with a marketing degree on June 13th from Bluefield State College. Since finishing school, Reasons has been pushing forward with his music, his designing, his basketball game, and his latest venture -the Honey Comb Experience.
"The vision is clear," he told me, "to move foward. Now I have more opportunities, I have more resources to pull from. I have a resume and references. Now is the time." Even a pandemic could not slow him down; though his event was initially postponed, he took the time to plan and create. He has new music in the form of Lone Fish 2 -which we will come back to.
The Honey Comb Experience is Reason's latest endeavor. It is an exclusive, invitation only event. It could be described as a church for creatives in that it focuses on bringing together creative minds to learn, to support, to encourage, to celebrate and to network.. "It is going to be a pure and organic vibe, " Reasons explained, That desire to bring creative minds together is how the Honey Comb Experience began. In fact it already began with a kick off in May. A house was rented and there were split rooms to help social distance. There were screenings with temperature checks, face masks and hand sanitizers were provided. At the end of the night there was a concert! Reasons really thought of everything. It was a laid back way to introduce people to his vision and be confident in his purpose.

While it was a success, there was ALOT of behind the scenes work that went into it. "I had to drive three hours away the day of to pick up equipment, drive three hours back and still set up," Reasons explained. That is why, Honey Comb will be invitation only. "I only want people who are serious and driven. The cream of the crop. This is not a party, this is a way to bring people together and to learn. We will provide you with resources you need, it is up to you to use them. There will be time to unwind afterwards, but this is not a party."
The next event is planned for Sept 19th and it is aimed for a larger scale. For example, artists will host classes, there will be inspirational talks in the afternoon, specifically the first black comic book author will be sharing his journey, his struggles, and how he over came them. There will be chefs and pop up shops -all in all it will be a whole day event. Reasons has a manifester mentality to him. He is a pusher and wants to see people succeed and grow. That is what he is hoping to accomplish with the Honey Comb Experience.
In addition to preparing for Honey Comb, Reasons has been really pushing his music and his clothing line. I'll start with his clothing line. Now on the Lootswwway site you can find the 'Dreamer' hat, jackets, and shirts -which I am about to order! The meaning behind it is to have a dream and to go for it. That is what Robert -Reasons- is all about. He sets goals, he dreams big, he goes for it. He accomplishes those goals. And what a more fitting time than now to have someone so optimistic, so encouraging, so willing to bring people up. With tensions so high in the country, Robert is exactly the person to turn to. He will make you feel so inspired and courageous. He wants to see everyone be their best and succeed.

This actually brings me to another wonderful fact about Reasons that he is passionate about. And that is him being a father. "I haven't spoken about it much in the past," he explained, "but fatherhood is a top priority to me and it was a private thing to me for a while. Now, I'm trying to open up more. I want it to be known. I want to be a good example and a leader for other single parents. I want to make my kids proud, as well as cultivate them and give them more opportunities. I want them to be the best versions of themselves."
Reasons, I have no doubt your kids are going to grow up to be unstoppable. And you have a large community here to help you out any time. In this time of distress and uncertainty, you are the type of person we need to lead, to bring together, to inspire. You are truly one of a kind!

One last thing I want to shout out is that Reasons has new music coming out! Yes! Lone Fish 2 will be coming out on Sept 10th (which just happens to be his birthday!) and if you're interested he will have a concert on June 13th at the Power House Studio from 6 to 9pm. If you cannot wait that long, his single 'GOTTI' is out now on social media and streaming services like ITunes and Spotify. This new is sure to be a hit! It is letting the world know exactly who Reasons Brown is....
