Definitions

1

The children of a house are its younger members — taken in, taught and repped by the mother and father. They're each other's brothers and sisters, and they carry the house name when they walk. It's not babying: 'children' is about lineage and belonging. You get adopted, you get raised, you grow into a legend yourself one day.
