Carmelo Anthony Stay Melo: The Rise of His Cannabis Brand in Syracuse

Hall of Famer and 10-time NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony recently entered the cannabis industry, launching STAYME7O. Anthony’s entry into the cannabis space is rooted in his commitment to empowering communities and personal experiences.

Throughout his career, Anthony has long been an advocate for the potential medical benefits of cannabis. With Carmelo Anthony’s weed brand, STAYME7O, he is aiming to address the systemic inequities within the cannabis industry. In doing so, he is helping to provide opportunities to historically underserved communities through the company’s support of non-profit organizations like NuProject.

Carmelo Anthony’s cannabis brand, STAYME7O is pronounced “Stay Melo,” and includes a premium line of vape pens and craft cannabis flower. Selecting strains for minor cannabinoid content, like CBDV and THCV, helps set the stage for the “Triple Threat of 3 Effects.” The products in Anthony’s cannabis brand fit into three effect categories, each curated to promote specific effects.

• REV: The “REV” line from STAYME7O is curated to enhance focus and energy.
• RECOVER: Products from the “RECOVER” line are created with the aim of reducing inflammation and promoting pain relief.
