That’s definitely respect, and I agree. And speaking of respect, why did you coin the phrase “Respect Culture Over Everything”?
That came about on a song I did on Return Of The B-Girl. It’s the title track “Return Of The B-Girl (Mara Jade).” To me, it’s about culture more so then money or anything.

One of my beauty icons is Oprah Winfrey. I love that fact that she’s so comfortable with herself. One of my favorite episodes of her show was when she showed millions of people how she woke up in the morning with no makeup on. That was so selfless and revealing. She’s very real and genuine and I love that. Halle Berry is one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen.
It’s been a week since the disappearance of Kameela Russell, a mother of two and educator who seemingly vanished while picking up her daughter in Miami.
The Miami Herald reports the 41-year-old was last seen on May 15 around 6 pm ET, when she went to pick up her youngest daughter from her aunt’s house. Russell has two daughters with the oldest being 15 and the youngest, 6. Russell’s aunt, Donna Blyden, said she believed she saw Russell’s 2014 black Audi pull up to her driveway on Wednesday but when she checked the driveway, the car wasn’t there.
Say hello to the 30-year-old woman who’s made her billions off flipping burgers.
Lynsi Torres, the youngest female billionaire in America, is owner and president of the popular In-N-Out Burger chain, a fast food haven with such a cult following that many line up for hours ahead of a new store opening, Bloomberg reports.
Fans of the restaurant — which serves up a tasty double-double cheeseburger and animal fries with special sauce — include fellow billionaire Warren Buffett who allegedly told students of the UCLA Anderson School of Business in 2005 that he’d like to own the franchise.
