He called this “The Church of Swagger.”
 
I think it was more like a permission slip to express yourself.
 
When I found this beat-up VHS marked "AND1 Vol. 4", I didn’t expect to see ballet in baggy shorts. But that’s what this was — grace disguised as grit. My father labeled it Artifact 0015, and inside the sleeve he left a folded note:
 
“This is how I learned to walk into a room like I belonged there.”
 
In 2038, nobody plays outside. Confidence is downloaded, calibrated, sanitized. But this tape? This was confidence earned. Missed shots, crowd noise, and no instant replay. Just style, sweat, and swagger.

Original 2000 VHS release of AND1 Mixtape Vol. 4
My father's post-it note
 
This isn’t just a mixtape — it’s a movement captured on tape before the world started buffering.
