MET GALA 2025. A pinstriped black and white suit and the back of the jacket mirrors the front you said? In the name of Andre Leon Talley — yes.
It takes a village and I can’t tell you how many people showed up for me to make this happen.

The Reviews Are In: Rolling out the Number One Movie in the World went a little something like this.
It takes a village, shoutout to the geniuses in mine:
Dalvin, Lauren, Nicole, Eboni, Vic and Shelby.
Thank you to the Cultural Agency for trusting us with Michael. It meant the world. Much love to Linda and Shawn.
To @lionsgate especially Taylor - forever my girl and congratulations.
This goes down as our most successful digital cover of all time AND the only cover for this rollout.
Thank you to my Chairman Richelieu Dennis for blessing me with this opportunity.
Creative directing use to be a dream, now it’s a reality.
Part II: Wise words from @mentionme

#outofoffice #oooconnectsummit #essence #refinery29 #nyc

We’re closing out the OOO Connect Summit with a powerful fireside conversation: The Weight of Ownership featuring Richelieu Dennis and Kory Jarvis.
This conversation is about what happens after the applause.
When the company grows.
When the spotlight gets brighter.
When the decisions get heavier.
When building a brand becomes building an institution.
We’re talking real ownership:
• The shift from founder to institution builder
• Selling, scaling, and acquiring without losing yourself
• Owning your narrative in public, high-stakes environments
• Leading through scrutiny, pressure, and evolving markets
• Building something that lasts beyond you
This is not surface-level inspiration. This is a real conversation about legacy, leverage, and leadership.
If you’re building anything with weight on it, you need to be in the room.
🎟️ Final tickets available now.

In my first assignment as the Vice President of Social and Special Projects — I got to Creative Direct my first ESSENCE Cover. 😭
Studying the archives I wanted something classic that felt like the epitome of what 55 years of tradition and legacy is.
The greatest thing about this experience is that it tested my capacity of self and vision. I saw the true value of collaboration. Thank you Lauren and Nicole for being a safe space for me. Your support meant the world.
And for this first milestone to be with Nia Long (which this was her 15th ESSENCE cover) to Colman Domingo and Jaafar Jackson (Their first ESSENCE Cover) for the biopic of Michael Jackson? Are you ******* kidding?
To every Black Creative who is waiting on their turn to provide an offering to the world and culture - wait on God’s timing. It’s coming.Let life place no limits on what you can have.
Also, It takes a village. So to Dalvin, to Okla, to Sophia, to Eboni, to Shelby and Vic and my goons Kelvin and Rhyann - I thank you so much.
This is a cultural responsibility that I don’t take lightly.

Went to The Oscars for my Birthday 🎈
A childhood dream was reaffirmed and the dream of the little boy on 4217 Bellfontaine that thanked the Academy using a broom stick as a mic was woken back up.
What a year. What a life. Extreme Gratitude moving ahead.

A lifetime of memories in Dubai went a little something like this.
Executive Producing a digital cover in real time took a full year of planning for @terrencej and Mikalah. Growing up on 106 & Park to now helping share his love story was truly an honor.
Highlights:
• Threw a few fits
• Told T.I. that Urban Legend is BY FAR the best album in his discography
• Top 3 groomsmen intro of all time . An iPhone will never fail you.
• From the Yard to the UAE
• Staying at The Atlantis Royal was insane
• Dubai might have the best skyline in the world
• THE DREAM TEAM — thank you Shelby, Steph, Reem, and Sandy for everything
• Saw the cover shot in this very video
• And here we go…
18 million views later + one of our highest-performing covers of the year (that Shelby wrote in TWO HOURS… insane).
This was one of those ones.
Thank you for having me.
Congratulations, family

A lifetime of memories in Dubai went a little something like this.
Executive Producing a digital cover in real time took a full year of planning for @terrencej and Mikalah. Growing up on 106 & Park to now helping share his love story was truly an honor.
Highlights:
• Threw a few fits
• Told T.I. that Urban Legend is BY FAR the best album in his discography
• Top 3 groomsmen intro of all time . An iPhone will never fail you.
• From the Yard to the UAE
• Staying at The Atlantis Royal was insane
• Dubai might have the best skyline in the world

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
Keep track of Instagram updates discreetly while protecting your privacy and staying anonymous.
