    Interview with Phase VI

    By: Where It Begins

     

    Q. You have this company called Phase VI tell us about it?

    A. Phase VI is a platform where we educate up and coming artists, executives, producers, songwriters and pretty much everyone that wants to be in the music business on all the ins and outs of the music video. They can:

    1.      Protect themselves

    2.      Promote themselves the correct way.

    Everything you need from A to Z is out in front of you. Concise, easy understanding. That’s what Phase VI is all about, also making sure people are there and businesses are other support services connected to those things, so they can get assistance they need to win, we are here for the future of music that’s what we all are about.

    Q. What made you want to start Phase VI?

    A. It’s been a long journey. I spend a lot of time working in the entertainment business. I was blessed to get in at a high-level business being young and in the mist. I did a project with a nonprofit here in Atlanta called Chris Kids. We partnered with NEO Foundation (NEO Compound Foundation), and we did a music therapy program, we are working with a lot of youth in various misguided situations. A piece of that was teaching the music business. I did that for two and a half years when I shut down, I saw there was a huge need to continue the business portion cause all the students kept reaching out to me.

    Q. Tell us about your books?

    A. Follow me at Phase VI and check out all my books. All my books I try to take complicated information and make it sound simple and be a great read.

    Interview with Tommy in the City

    Q. Who is Tommy in the City?

    A. I can never be able to describe that because it is not made up. I am from New York, so you know we have an aggressive attitude, but at the same time I have Atlanta roots. They say I am a southern gentleman, so I combine both together.

    Q. How did you start Tommy in the City?

    A. I have always been a giving person. I have been giving back since day one. So, Tommy in the City came along. I was searching for names one day in the studio. Someone said Tommy in the city, and that was it.

    Q. What do Tommy in the City do?

    A. I am more like a connector when people need something they will ask me before they find out on their own. At the time you could not google anything, so I did the work for them. I took this and built a website. It was set up on Instagram before Instagram was out. The game was called find Tommy in the City. I would go around town and be places and post on Facebook. If you found where I was, we were giving out gift cards, sneakers, hair, and gas cards. People started playing, so I tried to get an app, but things didn’t work out. I am still here and going.

    Q. Tell us about one of your biggest projects?

    A. One of my projects I do every year is Grandmothers raising grandkids. I do this yearly. The grandmothers are stuck raising the grandkids, some parents are incarcerated, some deceased, some of their kids are out on the streets, so they give rights to the grandparents. So, we try to give back to them and help because the funds are not there for this program. I teamed up with DFCS. I started out with a friend asking to help 17 people. Now we are at 500 soon we will be able to go from state to state. Every year we get more and more and then we are going to branch out.

    Q. When did you start Modeling?

    A. I have been modeling officially for over a year now, but the world has been a runway in my mind since birth.

    Q. Who inspired you?

    A. It was not a person that inspired what honestly it was the fact that I was doubted that inspired me.

    Q. Why did you want to model?

    A. The reason behind me wanting to model was because when I was growing up in a rough part of Washington D.C. I wasn’t always viewed as beautiful, yet alone I would have never seen myself as a model. I had really low self esteem and I would get picked on because my butt was too big or the gap I had in my teeth. I become a model to show other girls out there they can do it no matter what anyone thinks. Our creator made us all perfect and the sooner we embrace made us all perfect and the sooner we embrace that the greater we will feel about ourselves.

    Q. What inspiration words would you give to someone who wants to get into modeling?

    A. I would tell them patience and dedication. Modeling is so much more than pretty pictures and nice makeup. It is a lot of hard work. It takes a lot of practice and discipline. Also, there are a lot of manipulators and creeps out there that are going to try to exploit you and you have to know how to say no. Majority of the time if it sounds too good it is because nothing in the industry is handed to you.
