A.C.E Family!!!!

Hey Ace Famillllllyyyyy!!! As Austin would say. If you don't know who the A.C.E Family is, you most certainly have been living under a rock! I have followed and subscribed to this beautiful Trio for the past year and I must say they give a new and refreshing definition to not only vlogging but family values. If you're wondering what does A.C.E represent, it is actually an acronym for Austin, Catherine, and Elle, how cool is it that it was the perfect name for this family! So who are the A.C.E Family? Here's a little background, Austin, a former NCAA basketball guard for St. Louis University in Missouri also played in other sports such as baseball and soccer. In 2015, Austin began dating his spouse Catherine, gave birth to their first child, Elle, who was born on May 28, 2016, and were engaged in August 2017. 

This beautiful couple just announced in February this year that she is pregnant with their 2nd child which means the A.C.E Family is indeed growing. Why watch them? what's the point? Austin not only shows the unconditional love for his significant other, Catherine and his daughter Elle, he also shares the love and respect for his family, friends and of course the A.C.E Family viewers which is at a whopping 7+ million subscribers and over a billion video views!!! They announced a charity basketball event which will take place in southern California June 30th, 2018 and if you were among the 20,000 fans online trying to get tickets, you were probably like me and missed out, but excited for the upcoming events they will have soon!

 I'm writing this blog to say that the A.C.E Family is a great example of never giving up on your dreams and if you believe in yourself, anything is possible. Let's see how the new addition to the family will complement the name once she is born :-) For more information on the A.C.E Family click the links below, make sure you hit that subscribe button!!! Thank you A.C.E Family for allowing us into your family and letting the viewers see you guys on a day to day basis!

Welcome to the "DOPE ERA"

So despite the fact that some fashion have jumped the shark Stanley Cox best known as "Mistah F.A.B" and childhood friends have brought life back to an ERA that was and still is... DOPE! 
Born and raised in OAKLAND, CA, the urban wear speaks volumes, and connects not only with fashion, but music, art and history. Bringing the old yet new fresh urban wear to a generation we call now the millennials, but also keeping the generation that actually are from this ERA in mind as well. 

From music, writing, producing, directing and wearing so many different hats in the entertainment business, it was only right for Stanley to get into the fashion scene. The motivation and inspiration he gives on a daily matches is exactly what our young king and queens need today. Stanley is a Prime example that anyone can accomplish their goals & dreams by putting in hard work, despite trials & tribulations.

Dope Era opened its first location at 4506 Market St, Oakland, CA, and will launch it's official website April 1st, 2017. The demand for Dope Era is expanding, and now with the website launch everyone from all over the US will be able to purchase "Dope Era". 
We're excited to see more from DOPE ERA and where it will take us, because the reality is...

our ERA WAS DOPE and will remain for years to come.

Yard$ is BlackcardART

Video Credit & Directed by: BAMLIV

Yard$ is the definition of "Artrepreneur". Scrolling through the popular page on Instagram, I started following Yard$ back in February of 2015 and his work caught not only my eye, but the passion and story he was sharing with the world through art aroused me.

Artwork by: Yard$

I had a chance to communicate with Yard$ and asked what inspires your work? He replied, "My generation and my past". He started painting since 2000 from shirts then transitioned to canvas in 2014. "My lifestyle inspired me to paint my everyday life and I call it my TRUTH! I started sharing my god given talent to the world through social media and the response was amazing. It was different, risky but that's what art is about, being RAW & TRUTHFUL, not forcing it".

Lucky for us this Las Vegas native is a true inspiration to all, and I'm excited to see just how much more Yard$ has to share with the world. He is proof that you can be and do anything you want as long as you keep pushin, keep grindin, and keep hustlin towards your dreams. Whether if it's through a paint brush, music, or fashion, it doesn't matter, everything links to ART! Just be you and speak your TRUTH!

Lyfestyle Ink!

You're probably thinking, "Here is another blog about a Tattoo shop". Nope! I'm here to tell you this is not just another shop, this is "Lyfestyle Ink". Artist, Owner, and CEO Daniel Hernandez has made a name not only himself as an artist, but his dream. I've known Daniel for over 5 years now and his only vision/baby has been "Lyfestyle Ink".

Established in September 2012 in San Mateo California, Lyfestyle Ink quickly grew a name for itself, but not only in San Mateo but all over the bay area. As Lyfestyle Ink grew, the shop also complimented upcoming young businesses and entrepreneurs from all over.

Lyfestyle Ink has a relaxed and vintage atmosphere. From the blacked out chandelier hanging from the ceiling when you first walk in, to the jacquard designed walls, the beautiful art work that catches your eye, to the clean, comfortable stations ready to take on new and prior customers. 

Daniel has established Lyfestyle Ink not from celebrities, special guests or appearances. His customer based was all through word of mouth, continued support from customers, and as social media elevated over the years so did his customers. Lyfestyle Ink has a 4.8/5 rating on Yelp!, #1 on the Google search top list for SEO, and the body artwork is uncanny. 

To sum it all up! Lyfestyle Ink will surely be around for years and years to come, I can't wait to see how many more artists and apprentices grow with Lyfestyle Ink. 

So, whether you have tattoos, or looking to get your first tattoo, you would be doing your body great justice in going to the right place. Always remember, you're not just getting a "Tattoo" it's a "Lyfestyle".

E.L.H.A.E (Every Life Has An Ending)

I believe we all have many talents, some more than others. What I mean by that some of us are good at different things than others. For example, some people were meant to do music, some people were meant to be the lead singer, play the instruments, producer, or just dance to the music. 

Well may I please point out that this gentleman from Atlanta has the Feel Good Music we have all been waiting for. With his soothing but raspy riffs make you feel what he is singing. Click the link and hear for yourself, I'm exciting for what's to come. Thank me later.
 He is on my top week list of NEXT UP!!!
