Community Highlights: Meet Shannon Tubbs of 400 Ways Apparel

Today we’d like to introduce you to Shannon Tubbs

Hi Shannon, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I had no plans to be a DJ but growing up in Atlanta I remember getting into Clubs when I was 15 years old and was impressed by the amount of ppl was partying like really dancing and the DJs who were rocking the party at the time it was DJ Jelly Dj Montay. I remember when I use to hear they was DJin at certain clubs I would go just to stand behind them and watch them transition songs & scratch

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Dealing with jealous friends & harassment of the local police department

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Iam the owner of 400 ways apparel is a men clothing store I opened in 2020 in which came from the blue print the late Nipsey hussle laid down the foundation. My store we carry diffrent luxury urban Streetwear clothing from many different brands.
