From Court to Cannabis: Carmelo Anthony Launches STAYME7O to Empower Communities and Elevate Representation

NBA icon Carmelo Anthony has made his entry into the cannabis sector with his new brand, STAYME7O (pronounced “Stay Melo”).

This brand is a part of his recently established enterprise, Grand National, formed in collaboration with cannabis innovator Jesce Horton and marketer Brandon Drew Jordan Pierce.

STAYME7O made its initial launch in Portland, Oregon, and is now set to expand into New York—Anthony’s city of origin.

“This venture transcends cannabis; it’s about uplifting communities and fostering opportunities,” Anthony stated.

The inaugural offerings under the STAYME7O brand feature high-quality cannabis flowers and vaporizers. A long-time supporter of cannabis reform, Anthony emphasizes that this initiative is driven by both business interests and representation, with a strong commitment to partnering with minority-owned businesses and dispensaries.
