It’s been trippy to see how organically purple cannabis has made a comeback in the marketplace. How has it felt seeing Purple Urkle strains flooding into cannabis marketplaces across the country throughout the years? I make this claim humbly, but I also know what our grow squad can do. Combining the organic relationship I have with purple cannabis in conjunction with a highly skilled cultivation team put us in the position to put out perhaps the best purple cannabis on shelves anywhere. They’re a “quality first” brand that is also well-known within the cannabis community due to their commitment to the culture. In 710 Labs, we found a unique opportunity.
The recreational market is really in its infancy, so we are truly in a space where only a few brands have stepped forward and established themselves as leaders. Consumers and fans of purples just feel woefully underserved in the marketplace. I view purple weed the same as I view great mezcals. But I also love an incredible mezcal and that unmistakable smokey flavor. Tell me a bit about being and becoming a brand leader for fire purple weed. I had the same gut instinct to guide me when the situation felt right. I’d get a gut feeling when a potential partner was wrong, and it was disappointing at times, but ultimately that led me to 710 Labs.

When I can see a vision in my head so clearly, it’s frustrating sharing that with individuals who just tell you what you want to hear, knowing full well they won’t be able to make it a reality. The biggest obstacle was meeting with people who over-promise and don’t deliver. Only one other thing has taught me more patience, and that’s parenting my daughter, Samaya. Were there any difficulties or obstacles you faced? So why not me? I just needed an opportunity to bring truly noteworthy products that represented me and my standards for quality to market, and now we’re here. It made no sense to me that no company had claimed this lane. The thing that always stood out to me was that there was no clear brand leader for fire purple weed. Businessmen would come along with ideas that felt very exploitative of the Urkel legacy, and he would shut them down like a protective big brother. A childhood friend from the second grade, Sean, is the person I credit with making sure I went about things the right way. I smoke, so I decided to take a positive approach. Friends and family always thought it was funny to send me bootlegged pics of myself featured on products in dispensaries across the country. When did you become interested in getting into the cannabis marketplace?Ībout seven years ago. “But after meeting Jaleel serendipitously on an airplane and becoming friends, the idea grew organically, and we knew we had the right partner.” “We were never a brand that pursued celebrity deals, in fact we turned a few away,” Brad Melshenker, founder of 710 Labs, said about his decision to work with Mr. He developed and recently started a cannabis line under the name ItsPurpl, a partnership with 710 Labs, creating variants of a strain called Purple Urkle. Jaleel White, best known for playing the popular character Steve Urkel in the 1990s sitcom “Family Matters,” is among those leading the charge. According to MJBizDaily, about 81 percent of those who own cannabis businesses are white, while only 4 percent are Black and 6 percent are Latino - two groups who are historically criminalized for marijuana use and sales. One conversation about equity is the ownership of dispensaries and who stands to profit from the slate of new laws. Cuomo, included significant provisions to address issues of racial equity, such as clearing criminal records of past convictions for marijuana-related offenses and earmarking 40 cents of every dollar in tax revenue from cannabis sales for the communities that have been hardest hit by the consequences of drug enforcement. That bill, signed into law last month by Gov. Fifteen states, as well as Washington, D.C., have legalized recreational marijuana use, with New York among the most recent state to adopt such a measure.
