JON MYUSIK - Video Shoot (Nightlife in Bongo)

In my opinion Jon is a humble but yet very talented artist and it was my job to make sure that this video brought out that crazie side. As a DIRECTOR it was easy working with everyone because we were all on the same level. We partied together, we drank, but all in all we worked for about 40 hours to complete this track. He's a very, very talented artist and it was great doing this video.
Jon Myusik bringing you his hit song "2NITE". This Bentley presents the most weird story in the entire shoot. We were able to overcome this small hurdle and complete a star studded video. We had the contributions of Barnaba, Ngwair, of course the amazing NELLY leant a hand or face, PACHA lead us into every location THANK U, Tini B was the providing comic relief and a few other cameos along the way. 
Thank you to the MANAGEMENT at MAISHA that was patient with us for three straight nights of lights, alcohol and chaos throughout the entire shoot. It seemed like madness but the VIDEO I'll speak for itself.

NY Shoot with Ms Jokate Mwegelo

Music Video: Shilole feat AT "Dume Dada"


Nice video, they selected the perfect locations and the story line is hella funny. I dunno about the 6+minutes tho! Just a small dosing of Bongo is all you can take at one seating.

Trip to NY at 137 Rich (Jokate & Bea)

I think these TWO are just gonna flip the fashion/styling, whatever you call it in Bongo upside down. 
They have two distinct tastes but it's amazing to see them working in unison. 
In New York they worked in conjunction with Rose Kokuhilwa, who's formidable experience and name helped inspire a few projects down the road. 
GUA Season II is gonna be crazy, good things come 2 those who wait. 

Trip to Dar - Sneak Preview (Travel Website)

TRAVEL AGENTS - www.iHeartAfrica.com (Launching this Tuesday)
 New website launching this month brought to you by the "Growing Up African" family.
Tourism, adventure, travel and the exceptional fulfillment of your life.
A one of a lifetime VOYAGE into the Safari, Kilimanjaro etc, STAY TUNED!

20 POUNDS in 20 DAYZ...SUMMER SHAPE

I loved being a chubby baby tho. 
Getting in shape for me, was always about either sport's or a certain occasion. In college we had to workout and look our best for Memorial Day Weekend. Each year  I used to host these ratchet pool parties. I mean some people took it serious since they had advance notice and other did not looking at their sloppy appearance.

Dempsey scores as US beats Italy for first time

U.S. star Clint Dempsey scored in the 55th minute.

GENOA, Italy (AP)—American players applauded each other and their fans. Their supporters cheered loudly and proudly waved the red, white and blue.
Gaining a rare victory over a soccer power, the United States beat Italy 1-0 Wednesday night on Clint Dempsey’s goal in the 55th minute for the Americans’ first win over the Azzurri in 11 games over 78 years.
“It’s a work in progress,” Dempsey said. “I like to think that we’re closing the gap and hopefully one day we can do something special.”
A Texan who has become an increasingly important element of the American team, Dempsey put a right-footed shot from just inside the penalty area past an outstretched hand of goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon. Fabian Johnson had crossed to Jozy Altidore, who with his back to the goal against Italy’s Andrea Barzagli touched the ball back toward the top of the area.

“I think we look like a top team in the sense where we have one chance and we’re going to make it count,” Altidore said. “I think it’s a big step in the right direction.”
