  • Interview with Sincurr

    Interview with Sincurr

    By: Where It Begins

    Q. Tell everyone who you are and what you do?

    A. First, thank you for having me. Who I am is a complicated question, but I’m an entrepreneur, a musician and an audio engineer amongst other things.

    Q. How would you define the music you create?

    A. I would describe my music as real Hip-Hip. I’m from New York and I grew up in the 90s and the 2000s. I feel like, at that time, we had a lot lyricism. The people coming out then had a good time, but they were also still actual artists. Some would call what I do conscious hip-hop, but I just consider myself a hip-hop artist.

    Q. What has been your greatest accomplishment you’ve received in your career?

    A. When someone tells me they can relate to my song and it gave them a different perspective, or made them feel like they weren’t alone, that’s what really makes me feel accomplished. As an artist, that is all that I can ask for if my music actually helps and changes lives.

  • The Wife Before by Shanora Williams

    Book: The Wife Before

    Author: Shanora Williams

    By: Cece Hymes

    This is the first book I have read by this author and when I say I did not want to put this book down I read it in one day. This book was about a lady named Samira who couldn’t hold a job. Her brother always helped her out when it came to bills and her life. She was always late to things and really just wasn’t too stable. She is staying with her best friend at the moment, but she doesn’t play. She doesn’t like to pay bills late and does not cut slack with Samira. She goes to meet her brother and he lets her know that he got to stop helping her out because of his personal life. She knows she has to get her life together. So her roommate’s boyfriend tells her about a job that is paying good that night. As Samira goes to this party she cuts her finger and Roland helps her out.

    Now Roland is a wealthy, caring man that is a big golfer. He was married before and his wife passed away. The talk was that Roland had killed his wife, but they didn’t have the evidence to say he did it. Ronald finds Samira attractive and goes out of his way to get her number and asks her out. They fall in love so fast and move in together. They talk for a couple of months and get married. Samira’s brother does not want her to date him because of the rumors he thinks he is dangerous. As Samira moves into the house that he and his ex-wife shared, she goes through her things and finds journals that she wrote. She gets caught up in these journals because she knows that this will tell her how she died and more about the relationship that she had with her now husband.

    Through these journals she finds out a lot about his family, friends and relationship he had with his ex-wife. As she goes through these journals, she hides that from her husband, and it gets her thinking. She just wants to find out the truth. It starts putting distance between her and her now husband by being sneaky. As she reads the journal, she is just so invested that she finds out the truth by getting information and clues out of the journal.

    This book will keep you interested because you want to know what happened to the ex-wife. Check it out and tell me what you think. Would you marry a man you barely know? Would you have tried to find out the truth? Would you be scared? I don’t want to say too much, but it is a great read.
