Wrote about Toni Braxton’s second album, Secrets, and her status as a pop diva https://t.co/e7HcNV0XkX

"Braxton was never just singing sad songs... She's among the last of a breed of R&B singers who’ve mastered the art of gospel runs, turning simple ballads into soulful novellas."

For @MensHealthMag’s May/June cover, I spent an afternoon in Philly with Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts. My fellow mellow. We talked about his mental toughness, classic redemption story, and off-season plans. He confirms he is married
