By: Sip of Gossip

The beautiful Jade Taylor talks being a rapper from Philadelphia & more with Atlanta talk show Queen, Carisha The Diva!

Jade Taylor is 1 of Phila’s biggest rising stars! It is no secret that Jade Taylor is drop dead gorgeous and could probably pick up a 2^nd job in the modeling industry if she felt like it. The soft-spoken MC checked in with Carisha The Diva in Atlanta, and talked about her upcoming music, beauty regiment, working in a male dominated field and the challenges of being an independent artist. A lot of her fans do not know she has a twin brother who is also in the industry as well, but please don’t expect any twin projects soon because these two like to stay in their own lane. Her favorite sport is football, and if she could collab with anyone in the industry she would love to work with Megan Thee Stallion and Summer Walker. Being a female rapper in the Hip Hop industry is a full-time job because you are always competing to prove your artistry goes past what you look like. Luckily for Jade, she is being managed by a strong woman who is branding the ‘Wine For Me’ artists to stay sharp and 10 toes down! We are proud that Jade has such a great balance of intelligence, talent, and ambition which is for sure allowing her to elevate to new levels in her career.

“Only get better as you continue, grind and work hard day by day” GMG Ant.

The new wave of pop-culture and emerging artists is cruising into the world one mixtape at a time and no doubt, Texas has been making some noise on the scene. Already known for birthing big names in ‘trill’ Hip-hop such as Yella Beezy, Meg Thee Stallion, and Trae Tha Truth the ‘Lone Star’ state isn’t just famous for Swishers, good steaks and BBQ. If you haven’t already made yourself familiar with ‘Get Money Gang’, it’s a music group of family and friends, with a gang of upcoming artists representing for the 817. We managed to steal a little 1 on 1 time with Fort Worth, Texas native GMG Ant, and we are really feeling his energy on the track. At 24 years-old he has a BIG appetite for music and has several successful projects already out with a new project on the way titled “Green Light”. His music features upbeat 808’s, a lot of play on the keys, and overall is a good party feel that is the perfect vibe for turning up or just something to bop to. In fact, when you need to get ‘lit’ and ready to get to a ‘bag’ turn on his track “Party Jumpin.” He credits Lil Baby , 21 Savage, Gucci Mane, and Hoodrich Pablo as his major inspirations. Real recognizes real, and Ant mentions that when Atlanta native ‘Lil Baby’ blew up on the scene just a few years ago he took notes and started taking his craft much more seriously. Being a fellow Texas native, earlier in his career he remembers being featured on the same mixtape as Megan Thee Stallion which he describes as ‘crazy’. GMG Ant also recently collabed with Atlanta native ‘Coca Vanga’, and says he plans on doing many more collaborative projects in the future, as well as hopefully starting his own label. Check out our exclusive 1 on 1 Q&A below and follow the links to some of his hardest music online including his profile on the dope new music streaming site Zaytown Global from Zaytoven Beatz, Roland Williams and team.

National Association of Black Journalists ‘Vice President’ Disappointed in President Trump’s Press Briefings Regarding Covid-19 (Coronavirus).

As of now Capitol Hill is being swarmed with the media regarding Coronavirus, relief money for American citizens in need, and bailouts for the countries’ businesses who are all now struggling financially.

Two-term NABJ Vice President and Award-winning investigative reporter for CBS2 Chicago ‘Dorothy Tucker’ is one of the most prominent names in the world of journalism. Working diligently in the business since the 80’s, she has won local Emmy awards for her work in her home town of Chicago as a reporter, graduated with honors from Northwestern University, and has dedicated many contributions to the media world with her work as a stellar journalist. American journalist ‘Yamiche Alcindor’ is a White House correspondent for the PBS News Hour, and a political contributor to NBC News. After covering major stories such as the earthquake in Haiti, the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting, and the Trayvon Martin shooting, she has made an impeccable name for herself for her amazing work. Donald Trump has been called out for his vile remarks to reporter ‘Yamiche Alcindor’ who goes out hard in the field every day to bring the world trusted and truthful news for the people. His actions and the way he has spoken to other reporters of color, or anyone who is against his agenda has been deemed ‘tasteless’ to say the least. At this moment in America, we need a President who has compassion for all people and a strategic plan in order to figure out the Coronavirus. The American people should be informed up to the minute on the virus updates, possible vaccines, and important information yet the media is literally frightening the public with this threat of a ‘Martial Law’. Ms. Tucker made an announcement on social media regarding Trump’s disrespectful responses to Yamiche Alcindor and other industry colleagues which is also posted below. While his behavior has never ceased to surprise anyone, we can only pray that the people make it through this pandemic and see brighter days again. The weather is breaking, yet schools are closed, and supermarkets are becoming empty. Many people have lost their jobs and are worried about how to make ends meet, and the last thing we need is negative energy especially from the White House. Everyone is urged to spend as much time as home away from others as possible, and for further updates regarding Covid-19 head to /CNN

“Congressional leaders continued negotiations Sunday on an enormous financial rescue package totaling more than $1 trillion meant to steer the U.S. economy through the coronavirus crisis and help ordinary Americans weather devastating job losses, as lawmakers continued to diverge on key points.” More Here

By now we are full on worldwide with the epidemic we all now know as the ‘Coronavirus’. While some people are doing the most to stay safe by remaining in doors, practice strict cleaning habits, and social distancing, others are walking around naïve and completely oblivious to the media and all the warnings of a global pandemic on the way. Grammy winning artist ‘Cardi B’, who always has a lot to say never was 1 to be silent when she has a opinion on something. She has been very open about this pandemic and celebrities being ‘paid’ to say they have the Coronavirus, also known as Covid-19. While conspiracy theorists are jumping out the wood works with a opinion on every thing ‘corona’ related, the best thing we can all do for now is remain in doors, prayed up, and safe from harm and germs.

cardi b, interview, texas rap, tonka

Fort Worth, Texas rapper Tonka talked with us about his music history included his numerous hit records produced by J. White Did It (Cardi B – “Bodak Yellow” “I Like It”). The southwest native has worked with quite a few big names in the industry.

Now prepping for his upcoming mixtape, Personal, Tonka gives us a look at his longterm goals as well as what we can expect to hear from his latest work. Read his Q&A below and listen to a few of his songs, including “Full Throttle” featuring Ra-Ra the Antidote.

Stage Name

I Am Tonka

Hometown / Current Location

Fort Worth, Texas

How would you describe your sound for someone who hasn’t heard you yet?

Versatile style of lyrical capabilities while putting emotion and feelings of personal experiences in every song.

Brief Music History:

At the early age of 15 years old, I started producing my own beats while recording in a studio in Euless, TX owned by Big Mike who had an artist and producer that goes by the name Cardo Got Wings. Getting my start there, I then began putting out mixtapes throughout the streets of Dallas and Fort Worth creating a small buzz. From working personally with Grammy-award winning producer J. White Did It to Ohboyprince [f.k.a. Prince Charming of GS Boyz, creator of the platinum single “Stanky Legg”], I am on a mission to be the next major breakout artist.

Biggest achievements:

7 songs with J. White Did It and 4 songs with Ohboyprince.

What are your most important 3 songs and why?

“I Might Flex” with Ohboyprince because it has the most streams and radio spins of any song I ever released. Next is “My City” which is produced by J. White. It was my first song with the producer who now has two Grammy’s. Last is “Girls” with Brian Angel, from Diddy’s Making the Band, because he was the first platinum artist I ever worked with.

If you could work with anyone, past or present, who would it be and why?

If I could work with anyone right now it would be Drake because I feel like he is one of the goats of this generation. He has so much versatility and is one of my favorite artists.

What do you love most about making music?

I love putting my personal feelings and life into it so everyone can feel what I’ve been through in life.

What are your goals for 2020?

My goals for 2020 are to release a Billboard single, sign a major record deal, and go on tour with a major established rap artist.

Anything else you’d like to mention or promote?

My new mixtape is releasing this spring titled Personal.
