Why Chito Santino? Why that?
I'll tell you, when I first moved to Los Angeles,
I was playing this basketball league with these kids from East LA.
It was like the only connection I had in LA with these like couple of kids that I knew from Long Beach.
And we would go play ball in this league and then afterwards we'd go to a bar and just get shit faced.
Like just blacked out out of our mind. 22, like every dime we had was going to booze and partying.
So we were partying and I'm wearing basketball shorts like white people do when you play basketball.
And all my Mexican friends, you know, they wear like whatever they had on the floor that morning.
It was like jeans and you know, there was never basketball shoes for them.
And we're sitting there drinking in this dude Paavo, his buddy of mine, he looks down at my legs and he goes,
dog, I got a fucking issue, a question, player like, did you have fucking orange leg hairs, dog?
And I was like, dude, I've known you for years, you've never seen that?
And he's like, no, dog, it's so gross, dog. It's nasty to look at, bro.
It's kind of like if you ate a bag of Cheetos and you wiped the finger dust all over your fucking legs and she got Cheeto legs, dog.
So the Cheeto thing, so then all these dudes, all these fucking, all these homies were always like Cheeto.
It was just, it just stuck so hard that when I got Twitter and Instagram, I was like, I have to have Cheeto as my shit.
Like I have to embrace the Cheeto.
Embracing the Cheeto.
