Went to The Oscars for my Birthday 🎈
A childhood dream was reaffirmed and the dream of the little boy on 4217 Bellfontaine that thanked the Academy using a broom stick as a mic was woken back up.
What a year. What a life. Extreme Gratitude moving ahead.

Everything is Fine and Dandy.
MET GALA 2025. A pinstriped black and white suit and the back of the jacket mirrors the front you said? In the name of Andre Leon Talley — yes.
It takes a village and I can’t tell you how many people showed up for me to make this happen.

Thank you for allowing us to tell your story @latto
A few weeks postpartum with a newborn and an album release is something real heavy and you carried it with light and grace. Big Mama, but for real this time.
Thank you Team LATTO @kayynicole__ and @amandazimm for the partnership.
And to these geniuses that pour their love into everything. It takes a village.
P.S. Ima be awkward my whole life eh? 😭

Dear Lena,
There aren’t many opportunities that you get to thank the people who changed your life while they are still here to receive it- but this is one of them.
Long before I knew what my career would become - I just knew that I wanted to tell stories about Black people. Stories that reflected us honestly and with intention. I just didn’t know where to begin.
Then I met you.
New to Los Angeles you were the first person who truly affirmed that I belonged in this space. You were the first person to tell me that my voice mattered. You were my first Yes.
I still remember sitting in table reads where you had us reading pilot scripts before the world ever knew their names. They were then named Twenties, Queen & Slim, and what would become the longest running Black cable drama in history, The Chi.
To now stand here, years later and be able to tell the story on the cover of ESSENCE as The Chi takes its final bow, feels like the kind of full-circle moment only God could write.
Thank you for seeing me before the world did. Thank you for opening the door and for every opportunity I’ve had since meeting you — I carry a little piece of the one that you gave me tightly.
I hope you know that your legacy isn’t just in the stories you’ve created — It’s in the storytellers you created, too. I’m beyond proud to be one of them.
Forever indebted. Love you deeply. Congratulations @lenawaithe

A lifetime of memories in Dubai went a little something like this.
Executive Producing a digital cover in real time took a full year of planning for @terrencej and Mikalah. Growing up on 106 & Park to now helping share his love story was truly an honor.
Highlights:
• Threw a few fits
• Told T.I. that Urban Legend is BY FAR the best album in his discography
• Top 3 groomsmen intro of all time . An iPhone will never fail you.
• From the Yard to the UAE
• Staying at The Atlantis Royal was insane
• Dubai might have the best skyline in the world
• THE DREAM TEAM — thank you Shelby, Steph, Reem, and Sandy for everything
• Saw the cover shot in this very video
• And here we go…
18 million views later + one of our highest-performing covers of the year (that Shelby wrote in TWO HOURS… insane).
This was one of those ones.
Thank you for having me.
Congratulations, family

In my first assignment as the Vice President of Social and Special Projects — I got to Creative Direct my first ESSENCE Cover. 😭
Studying the archives I wanted something classic that felt like the epitome of what 55 years of tradition and legacy is.
The greatest thing about this experience is that it tested my capacity of self and vision. I saw the true value of collaboration. Thank you Lauren and Nicole for being a safe space for me. Your support meant the world.
And for this first milestone to be with Nia Long (which this was her 15th ESSENCE cover) to Colman Domingo and Jaafar Jackson (Their first ESSENCE Cover) for the biopic of Michael Jackson? Are you ******* kidding?
To every Black Creative who is waiting on their turn to provide an offering to the world and culture - wait on God’s timing. It’s coming. Let life place no limits on what you can have.
Also, It takes a village. So to Dalvin, to Okla, to Sophia, to Eboni, to Shelby and Vic and my goons Kelvin and Rhyann - I thank you so much.
This is a cultural responsibility that I don’t take lightly.

Spent the week with my forever Vice President Kamala Harris.
The level of respect, admiration and genuine love I have for this woman is unmatched.
A lifetime of moments I will never forget. I see and feel you God.

Art is Revolutionary
This year, we centered everything around The Black Panther's juxtaposition - the power of the party, led by Huey P. Newton, and the power of the animal in its prime.
This moment was made possible by the collaboration of many geniuses.

The Reviews Are In: Rolling out the Number One Movie in the World went a little something like this.
It takes a village, shoutout to the geniuses in mine:
Dalvin, Lauren, Nicole, Eboni, Vic and Shelby.
Thank you to the Cultural Agency for trusting us with Michael. It meant the world. Much love to Linda and Shawn.
To @lionsgate especially Taylor - forever my girl and congratulations.
This goes down as our most successful digital cover of all time AND the only cover for this rollout.
Thank you to my Chairman Richelieu Dennis for blessing me with this opportunity.
Creative directing use to be a dream, now it’s a reality.
