Hella Smart Short Sleeve T-Shirt
A cute tee for men and women who want to flex their intellect.
If you’re rooting for everybody Black like show creator Issa Rae, who infamously told Black America's little secret to the world live from the 2017 Emmys red carpet, you’ll want this shirt.
Issa grew a little in season three and if you plan to do some growing in 2019, these Black Girl Magic notebooks could come in handy for planning your next move.
Doesn't it seem like Issa could have written Cardi B's hit "Bodak Yellow" herself since sis loves a good freestyle in front of her mirror (and occasionally in front of others). This sweatshirt pays tribute to Cardi and the female rappers who preceded her, such as MC Lyte, Queen Latifah, Lil' Kim and Lauryn Hill\.
Chicago-based scholar and sociologist Eve L. Ewing mixes her poetry and prose with nods to pop culture, rap and R&B. It’s a book Black girls can curl up with during snowed-in winter days, and has Issa’s vibe written all over it.
"All I Want for Christmas is the Obamas Back" Christmas Cards
Issa Dee, like every other Black millenial, is missing the Obamas in the White House. Remind everyone you know about the good times with these Christmas cards.

Every season Insecure has a great playlist to correspond with the show. One of the songs off the album comes from Kelela, whose vinyl is also (lowkey) art from your Issa friend's apartment.
It's not just the cast of Insecure that's inspiring, the team behind the show includes heavy hitters. From creator Issa Rae to composer Raphael Saadiq and executive producers Prentice Penny and Melina Matsoukas, there are tons of creative AF people helping create the show behind-the-scenes.
