Feels funny posting this photo considering the spring time heat wave that we are experiencing in the Midwest. But, I will not be fooled! I fully expect it to snow at least once more before April 4th.

Needed some new shots of myself (because I’m a narcissist) and I’m happy that Cousin Dee was able to capture me doing my signature Ebony Man stance(s). And I’m never a fan of B&W photos of myself but I figured that I should switch it up here. After all, I am a style icon!
It’s not often that you get to see a statuesque Tanzanian beauty strolling around NY waiting for a close up so I was lucky to bump into model, Miriam Odemba recently. I attempted to talk to her but her manager/sister said, “I do the talking for Miriam.” I was like damn, really? Never mind then. […]

I have completed 2 days of fashion shows around New York and Im asking myself, what did I get myself into. Feet hurting. Back hurting. Tired of running up & down subways stairs carrying a 60 pound bag. Tired of waiting in line. Tired of standing. Tired of looking at janky ass fashion wanna bees. […]
For me, New York city is like a drug. It makes you feel good. It makes you forget about your troubles. It makes you feel sexy. It makes you feel invincible. When I’m there, I see me. The people all see me. We are all looking at the same thing. And then the trip is […]
