Writing and watching Run’s House on Amazon Prime, and Making The Band episodes on YouTube featuring Da Band.

Let us know why YOU are Next.
There ain’t nobody like me at all, to be honest. From my work ethic, my nonchalant attitude, and my stage presence. Sitting down I STILL stand out! Also, I’m naturally goofy so I could expand my brand into comedy and acting!
