Oh, Sweet…Suite 100

What’s the first thing you notice when walking into a restaurant? The atmosphere, the smell, the bar, the setting. Well, at this grand opening, I couldn’t help but to notice the same things. From outside, I saw that the guests seemed delighted to be there, the bartenders were enjoying themselves and lolly-gaging with their customers, and the building was surrounded by fancy yachts and cobblestone floors. Yes, Suite 100 in Fort Lauderdale’s Riverfront was doing it…doing it... Read More →

Hilton Carter is part of that talented group of folks. His videos evoke many elusive thoughts, taking you to la-la lands beyond and exhibiting profound mini-stories. Outkast may have defined the... Read More →

It’s the truth, free, all kinds of right, it’s Miami’s own Saheed.

Harajuku Barbie: Hip Hop? Maybe not.

Allow me to paint a picture for you of the state of Hip-Hop today. I am not talking to those of you who breathe Hip-Hop. I am talking to those of you that “just listen” to it.

I could wax poetic about all the things that have killed Hip-Hop, but that’s not what this story is about. In... Read More →
