I'm on one

     I'm obsessed with Hip-Hop culture. I don't say this to sound cool, I say this sincerely. From a young age I would watch Jay-Z, and many other artists grind to make their way to the top. This initially helped fuel my love for Fashion, and Glamour. The videos with the expensive cars, labels, and gorgeous mansions made me yearn for a fabulous life full of these things. I started to think 'How can I make my way into this world, and still be happy?' I started to think about some of my traits, and what I'm good at, and VOILA: I decided I will become an Entertainment and Fashion Publicist. 
     Public Relations is something is very interesting to me, and I feel I will be good at. I'm organized,  I love to write, and I know how to work a room. My networking skills are very good, and I'm proud to say at the age of 16, I know just about every single party promoter, and event producers in Cleveland. I know  this is off topic, but I never really open up with my readers. I usually use my Twitter account (@JustinAlvis), but I've resorted to my first love, VC. 
     Below is BTS footage for the music video "I'm On One." This is what fueled my sudden thought to share my dreams and aspirations with you, because the video shows the grind, and the hustle put in for a 5 min. video. Drake explains how he uses his own house, which isn't even furnished, just to shoot the video. DJ Khaled explains how he came to Miami with no money and a dream. This is inspiration to me. We alll can't just come into these industries with everything handed to us. Hard work must be put in, and a smile must be kept on your face. Check the video out and become inspired.
