Besides my love for working in radio (Hot97) and being a brand ambassador for Hennessy, my favorite past time is being a purveyor of art. I grew up amongst amazing muralists, graffiti and street artist and have a passion for color and varieties of medium. I love to travel all over the world and the first thing i look up when I’m there is local artists and museums Check out these dope 15 artists (in no particular order) that I’ve come across this year.

(Photos) The Empire Girls Party With Hot 97 At Cipha Sounds “Puerto Rican Freakin Weekend” Comedy Show
This past weekend, Hot 97’s Cipha Sounds celebrated his 4th Annual Puerto Rican Freakin Weekend Comedy Show through his Don’t Get Gassed Comedy Series at Caroline’s. So many of the Hot 97 family were in the building to support including Peter Rosenberg, Angie Martinez, DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Magic, Laura Stylez and DJ Juanyto, as well as Empire Girls’ Adrienne Bailon, Julissa Bermudez and more. Peter Rosenberg and Angie Martinez opened the evening by retelling the now infamous story of Nicki Minaj not preforming at Summer Jam. Angie then showed a “surveillance clip†of Rosenberg rockin out to Nicki’s “Starships.†Style Networks also taped an episode of Empire Girls while there.
