Up And Coming Comedian: Jett Wilson


Bro, let everybody out there who don't know you know who you are and what you do!

My name is Jett Wilson I'm a stand up comic/ actor/ writer from Fort Lauderdale, Fl

Where can people find you bro?

I'm a local comic I'm prolly somewhere at a open mic rite now working on my set, but I'd prefer my e mail jettwilson954@gmail.com  I'm also on twitter just @ me, @JettWilson , on Facebook Jett Wilson and on YouTube JettTv and on instagram under the same name!


Who inspired you to do what you do an why?

I would have to say Martin Lawrence made me wanna be a comedian, Richard Pryor made me love comedy, and Mike Epps and Patrice Oneal make me want to keep going!!!
How long have you been doin what you do?

I got on stage at the Hollywood Improv when I was 16 years old and haven't gotten off the stage since, I'm 24... 8years!!! But the last 2 years have been my most consistent years in comedy



Why do you do it?

I love making people laugh, I love the attention when I'm on stage and the fact that people want to listen. I look into the crowd a lot at their crowd facial expressions and the more and more I'm on stage it seems like the more they want to hear. Besides that this is a one man job, I don't have a teammate on stage it's just me, and I love holding my own weight out there it's a real rush.








Where do you hope/aim to be in the next three years?

In the next 3 years I just want to be an established comedian, that doesn't have a set crowd I can only perform in front of, I want to be able to get on stage anywhere and get the same results, LAUGHTER!!



What words of encouragement do you have for someone coming up tryna do what you do?

I tell a lot of comics to be themselves, advice we've all heard our entire lives but it's also the best advice you can get in this comedy game. People wanna know what bothers you, your story, your life, not someone else's you trying to portrait. So just be yourself, talk about what you feel comfortable talking about




What makes you different from everyone else who's doin what you do?

One of the biggest differences between me and other comics is I don't do this for the money I actually love doing stand up, if I'm able to come up financially I'd be happy but just to be able to be considered as a comedian and such



What projects are you workin on?

I'm on the road now putting together a 30 minute set for my 3rd local DVD "Live, Local, and Late Breaking". I plan on putting together a comedy special in my hometown of Fort Lauderdale, Fl




Any closing remarks?

I appreciate you guys opening up to me and inviting me on your blog, I'd like to give a s/o to my Mother, thank God for allowing me to do this much and basically ask them people to Free my Daddy

Up And Coming Artist: Handles









Introduce yourself homie:


-How are you doing? I go by Handles, lyrical emcee from VA. Check out my page handles.bandcamp.com and follow me on twitter: @Handles757


Aight aight. So give us a lil something about you bro. What would your bio say about you? And why should we follow you as an artist?


-A dream does not remain a dream for long when you wake up every day with the motivation to achieve it. Aspiring rapper Handles brings new meanings to the word “hunger”; consistently displaying his drive to fulfill his appetite for artistic success.


-To the Virginia State University student body, he’s Kentral Savage while to music-craving ears, he’s the savaging beast known as Handles; flooding airwaves with a lyrically incising set of bars that you not only bob your head in unison to, but mentally commend him for his perpetual ambition. Similar to the soothing effect elevator music has on most individuals, Handles provides you with musical delights that can be played virtually anywhere; AKA: no curse words.


-While many rappers in their adolescent 20’s struggle to locate the adjectives in their minds to express the emotions of their verses, he seemingly effortlessly flows his thoughts through his mouth, censor-free. Proving to listeners both young and old how set apart he is from the social stigma of rappers today.


-Why I think I'm different? Well, I properly make the bed I choose to lay in, I study the art of music production, ultimately strengthening my natural talent. With a commitment to each and every aspect of learning, I continue to pursue my master’s degree with both an associate and bachelor’s degree already notched on my belt. Such motivation to my intellect shines throughout my lyrics, and inspires nearly everyone to master the craft they are blessed with.


Why did you choose rapping as a career option?


-I think music is in everyone. My belief is that it unites every soul with the sole purpose of keeping us all connected through music and forever bonded to the liberation of self-expression.


-I am a bold person with a bold message – say what you have to say and say it your way. Devotion is the motive, success is the goal, and expression is key. I believe the melodic art provided by Kentral “Handles” Savage is not to be heard but to be listened to.










Reviews 


“Savage's youthful vigor is matched only by his surprisingly mature musical ability.” - A&R Select


"I had previously heard some of his joints on YouTube and liked where dudes head was. So when the mixtape dropped I was like yes sirree! Let me tell you. I was not let down. Neck was hurting after it was over. I mean, it’s a head nodder most of the way through. And lyrically, he takes me back to a time when it wasn't just about money, it wasn't about fame, it was about respecting the culture and dropping jewels in your ear." - Ms.Anita, becauseilovehiphop.com


"One of hottest young niggas on the fucking planet, and thats right, I am co-signing this nigga!" - DJ Young Cee, Shadyville/G-Unit's DJ - G-Unit Records


"I was impressed and I think they will be too." - Soul Wallace, COO, Business Manager for Skyzoo - Shining Shadow Recordings


"He is truely a great lyricist and a great storyteller." - Wilbo VP of Royalty Life Records, LLC

Ink

If you understand art you will understand the reason behind tattoo number 23. I got this tattoo to look like my skin was removed to show my "robot arm". The meaning that I aimed to portray is that I am preprogrammed to win since day one or 62288.

New Artist Iggy Azalea

Tell me what do you think about Iggy Azalea.







NEW STUDY “BLACK WOMEN ARE FAT & HAPPY”





While they tend to be heavier than white women, a new study by the Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation discovered they’re significantly happier with their bodies.
While only 41% of average-sized or thin white women report having high self-esteem, 66% of overweight or obese black women feel the same, the study found. Observers says that black females are particularly adept at shrugging off social expectations that don’t fit what they want for themselves. While 90% of black women surveyed said living a healthy lifestyle is important to them, that doesn’t mean being tiny. “That’s not what I grew up seeing. It’s not about trying to identify with somebody else,” said a medical technologist working out in a DC-area gym.
Historically, research shows that self-esteem for “black girls and women has always been the highest among all groups,” says Princeton Professor Imani Perry. “It’s a powerful statement about our resilience.” A 2008 study showed women subjects images of an “ideal” tall, thin, white woman’s physique. White women felt badly about themselves afterward, but black women weren’t affected.
Black women “are just not comparing themselves to these white models,” said the researcher. Identifying with thinner role models may change as more women like Beyonce and Rihanna fill mass media images, but ideas of beauty for black women will likely tend to remain “more elastic,” enforced by “positive” phrases for larger women like “full-figured” and “healthy,” say observers.
That doesn’t mean obesity is a good thing. “We’re not saying it’s super fly to be super fat. We’ve never said that,” says New York writer Michaela Angela Davis. But, she adds, unlike in white culture, “black women are not criminalized for it.”
So what do you think, are black women TRULY happy being overweight?

BIRTH CONTROL PILLS FOR GUYS IS READY FOR TESTS




The male contraceptive pill is ready for testing but will men take it? Will women believe men are taking it?
According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, the male contraceptive pill may be only a decade away.
Researchers at the University of Kansas are so confident about their male contraceptive pill that they’re ready to seek FDA approval to test it on humans. So far their compound has proven safe in rats, rabbits, mice, and monkeys. “It’s 100% effective and 100% reversible,” says biologists.
The chemical compound H2-gamendazole, stops sperm from growing in the testicles.
WHAT DO YOU THINK? WILL YOU TAKE IT MEN? WILL YOU TRUST THEM “TO” TAKE IT WOMEN?
