Iced out like im Johnny Dang
-
"This is the man who helped feed me and my family"...a person who doesn't forget about who helped him to the top should be admired. He's a very genuine and grateful guy.
-
Damn, he rented out a shop to take the clients of the place that didn’t hire him. What a G.
-
Just imagine how much discrimination he had to overcome. RESPECT.
-
They shud make a movie about him. This a true underdog story. Love it how he keeps in touch, and still recognizes the people who helped him throughout the years.
-
Johnny dang is more in the rap game than some rappers themselves haha
-
He knows how to handle money, fame and reputation, knows to handle high quality clients, competitive and not being cocky like other jewelers. This is inspiring thanks Vice !
-
Travis: Yo what's poppin Johnny: Chillin Dang this guy
-
Dude started at 23.. turning 25 next month and not really knowing if I'll end up in a good place. this gives me hope to keep on pushin'. Big ups to Johnny for being a real one.
-
its kind of impossible not to like him after watching this.
-
as a vietnamese dude, johnny dang makes a lot of us viets here proud.
-
the combination of vietnamese and texan makes for the most charming accent, legend lmao
-
Johnny Dang easily gains everybody's respect by being so humble
-
"Paul wall understood me, helped me to communicate." Paul Wall is a man of the people.
-
I like how humble he is even after all his success. He still is great friends his old flea market colleagues. Just a genuinely hard-working guy making it big but never forgetting where he came from. He could easily let all the fame and fortune get to his head, I mean...have you seen the color scheme of that Rolls Royce? Behind all that ice, just a hard-working, funny guy.
-
Johnny Dang saying "Yessir" is the coolest thing I've ever heard. Yessuww!
-
"If I can make it, you have no reason why you cannot make it." - Johnny Dang

I had the pleasure of meeting this dude in 2010. I was in Sharpstown Mall, leaving after doing some shopping... and there he was, walking into his shop! I Shouted his name, he stopped and shook my hand and we exchanged a few words. Any other rich dude, would've ignored me and kept walking, but this man made some time to speak to me, like a human being. His hustle is amazing, but I'm sure his success is partly due to his humble attitude. 10/10 man right here!
-
THIS MAN is humble he deserve this blessings, A REAL ONE
-
My guy stayed down and stayed humble, never forgot the people who he started with and who helped him. He fasho deserve all the success he got right now, God will def keep blessing this man.
