As some may know, food plays a huge part during family holiday gatherings, so I wasn't qualified to make the main dishes. So I chose to work my way up in the dessert department. That's when I made my first lemon meringue pie. Needless to say it was a hit. So every holiday I would make lemon meringue pie, then came peach cobbler and banana pudding and anything I could make to be apart. Mother's Day 2014, was when I made my first cheesecake. My grandma loved it! So from then I did much research to concoct the perfect cheesecake.…
Hello, I hope everyone reading this is being fully blessed with prosperity. Also thank you to Buzz Magazine for this opportunity and platform. So, I got my start as a kid born and raised in Windsor NC. I have had a love for music for as long as I can remember. I developed a natural love for music and because it was rampant in my family. I’ve been writing rap music since about 12 years old. I performed at my high school talent show and participated in rap cyphers with my friends around the city. My hometown doesn’t have a…
Some years ago, while traveling on my motorcycle at 130 mph on an infamous Atlanta road, I hit a light post. Riskily, the pace of my life mirrored the speed of my motorcycle. Some years later, I received a 20-year prison sentence for trafficking that devastated me. Unbeknownst to me, two of my most tragic experiences would change the trajectory of my life for the better. I want readers of my new book, Mind of a Hustler, to understand that it’s never too late – even after making life-altering mistakes – for redemption. While in prison, God told me that…
Summer Daze started as a vision/dream. I can distinctively remember, me and my roommate was having a conversation about our future and I just said it. I said one day I'm going to start my own skin care line. I strongly believe me speaking it and believing in those words, brought me to starting my business. About two years prior to that conversation, I started mixing natural sugar scrubs and moving towards natural skincare. I noticed that my skin did not work well high chemical contented skin products. My skin would have underlined dark spots and chemical burns that left…
As a child, I was always a talker, an entertainer and the one that gets the party started. So as I grew into an adult, my personality develops a lot more. People would always tell me I should have my own TV Show or Radio Station, so I decided to go ahead and start my journey into the Radio/Podcast world last year. I started a Radio Station /Podcast with nothing to begin with no fancy equipment, no DJ, or Radio Station producer just me, my creativity and my phones. I used an app called Stationhead to develop my Radio Personality…
guess you can say I have been a serial entrepreneur since the age of seven. I bypassed the whole lemonade stand idea and catapulted right to door-to-door sales with my own handmade products. I suppose self-doubt is something I’ve never really suffered from. Growing up, I was a unique child who was always getting into something — from acting to creating documentaries, then getting into computers to express my creative ways to the world. “Sit down somewhere” is something I always heard from my grandma but still, to this day, I cannot sit down. However, just as most do, I…
We are a husband and wife real estate team — a power couple on the move. We always had an entrepreneurial spirit and a love for people. We started off in the health and fitness industry and ran a successful business for eight years. Later we decided to move into the real estate industry and continue helping people. Putting the interest of people first brought us to where we are today. Even though we are in sales, it is not always about the purchase of a home but most importantly, about helping people and building healthy relationships. We want to…
I was born in Chicago in 1987. My father being in the Army required my family to move to Columbus,Ga. when I was six years old. I’ve literally always loved cooking and serving it to others. My Christmas gifts would consist of at least one food related toy. Lol. Growing up I'd always observe my mother in the kitchen cooking or my father making cookies. My parents are honestly both my food inspirations. I grew up toggling the tv between cartoons and the Food Network. I'd go in the litchen searching for the ingredients to prepare whatever I watched. Cooking…
I love being asked this question. Where I am today is because of a homeless man. Before I jumped into full-time speaking and coaching it all began at a homeless shelter. Ill never forget talking one of the clients out wanting to commit suicided. make exact words to this gentlemen was "Things will get better for you don't take your life you are needed." the mens words to me were I hate life right now and I can trust anyone. after 3 days the same man asked my co worker where was I. as soon as I got in for…
Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan I always has a passion for music. I sang in the choir and played an instrument. I knew every song that came on the radio. My mom called me the human jukebox lol. I was a natural writer...short stories, poems, essay, etc and had a love for ready books. In my late teens my favorite cousin told me I should start writing songs. He had many talents but a rapper was one that he felt I could also do well. With his advice I starting writing raps like everyday. I wanted to pursue a…
