I was born in Long Branch New Jersey. During childhood I wanted to become a chef such as Bobby Flay or Martin Yen. I graduated from Johnson and Wales University in 2003 with the expectation of making a career into the foodservice industry. The dream slowly faded away after years of lusterless opportunities that only lead to more experience, but career growth. In 2007 I was hired in the telecommunications industry as a customer service representative. During these last few years the passion for writing grew as I had to learn to express myself in distinct ways. Today I am in pursuit in of a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism this year and I have a blog that has been running for a year. Also my articles have been published in two separate entertainment magazines with an established fan base. In addition to that LIB Magazine appointed their “Video of the Day,” which I search viral content that is SEO friendly. This is in addition to writing for the hip hop section of the magazine where I talk about issues within the hip hop community. I also talk about topics touch directly within the hip hop community in Long Island. I also write on my own blog about social issues and news stories that seems too unbelievable to be true.

In July 2014, Scott accepted the Jimmy V Award for Perservance and stated, “When you…

Ok, now that the champagne bottles have been popped and we all saw the ball drop. 2015 is finally here and the question that is on everyone’s mind is what albums are coming out for the new year? It’s no secret hip hop fans have been longing for some great albums since 2014 fizzled out.  The facts: NO hip hop album last year hit platinum status.  Iggy Azalea became an atomic powerhouse in the rap/pop world with her monster “Fancy,” single, her album barely broke gold.

It has been six months since the death of Mike Brown in Ferguson. It has been only one month since the cop who was involved with Eric Garner’s death was not indicted. The world responded to the injustice in ways that showed we, as a nation are connected even hundred of miles away – though not in the most positive of ways.

It seems every country has shown appreciation for the resilience to be…
