Labor Day Weekend is fun because everybody in Brooklyn is outside from sun up to sun down, partying four days straight like we're homeless.

The Ninth Session will give you some incredible insight into the therapy world while also unfolding an enticing story. I loved that this was written by a practiced psychologist because it felt so raw and natural. The story line itself was incredibly interesting and the focus of the emotions of the therapist instead of the patient was really enlightening. It was a pretty original read because of this element and I think that’s what made it incredibly enjoyable. I flew through the pages of this shorter novel not only in pure interest in what was coming next, but also because of the style and narration of it all. I felt so in tune with the emotions of it and it came off so incredibly realistic, it feels like you’re reading a genuine patient case. 

Burna Boy kick starts 2020 with the release of the visuals to his single “Secret” featuring  American singer/rapper, Jeremih as well as Jamaican dancehall singer, Serani.

The video takes on a nocturnal theme that allows Burna Boy, Jeremih and Serani bask in the sensuality of steamy lyrics, visualized in even more expressive scenes.

Lyrically, the song attempts to coax/cajole a seemingly unsatisfied married man’s secret lover into keeping their love affair a secret, her ambition to want to be his wife and spend more time with him nonetheless.
