This one is for Hip Hop.

I felt heavily inspired by the lineage of Hip Hop and how it contributes to who I am today. This is my first self choreographed performance and one of the most important things I wanted to highlight was my connection to black women through Hip Hop. With the help of hair artist Malcom Marquez, we were able to make this symbolic art performance come to life in just a short week.

A special s/o to some of my inspirations; the incredible @solangeknowles @carlota_guerrero and @mfdoom (rip)

A special s/o to my stylist @sam__woolf for nailing this look and translating my take on hip hop through clothing !

This is my take on the future of Hip Hop. This is blackness. This is luxury. This is history.

Thank you to the @colbertlateshow team for having us on your show! And thank you to my true fans for always showing up to every performance and sharing my music 🐊 SWAMP4L

Our team found the most adorable kid cosplays at @RetroGameCon 2024 in #Syracuse.

First place went to Jericho Fluno, 11, who cosplayed as R2D2. “Honestly, I didn’t think I was going to win today." 🥹

“It’s all about making something out of nothing.”

The most eye-catching adult cosplayers at @RetroGameCon used fabric, cardboard, latex and creativity to bring their favorite game characters to life.

To the professional journos I've engaged with the past few days: I'm a journalist, not a source.

I have lots of DMs from journos asking what I saw at CCNY yesterday but few replies from editors who want to pay for my work.
