Lamar James Ballard Opens Up about being A "Super Model"& What's it's like working with Sean P. Diddy Combs

Since meeting you Pre-Instagram and all of this social media madness what do you think has changed the most overall? A whole lot. Some not a good way. When you go to a casting or audition, sometimes they want to see how many social media followers you have before you even show your talent. Which means in many cases that if you aren't even into say Tik Tok or IG or making regular videos to get the views you may have lost the gig before you even auditioned. It has its good and not so good advantages. Make social media work best for you.  I consider you to be a male supermodel, to have the longevity in this industry that you have had and to know men still don’t dominate as models, what is your take on that, and what is your view on male models in the industry today? I would consider myself as a" Supermodel" but more so as an idea of longevity. I love to work hand in hand with designers behind the scenes in the rugged office cutting and putting pieces on my body, making each ...

20 SOMETHING'S ''A Short Love Story"

I like to be transparent, but I like being as private as possible to, that's crazy right? I guess the story I'm about to tell everybody can help people learn from my mistakes. I haven't always been the person I am today, nor was I always the person I was yesterday, but years ago I fell in love. I had just moved to town practically coming from a bad break-up that I still hadn't dealt with along with not quite having my direction in life quite figured out yet. I wasn't in a good place financially, emotionally or spiritually so I had no business loving anybody, but there was this guy literally the most stunning man I have ever seen. When we met I was instantly attracted to him, but we didn't initially get along obviously I didn't force the connection it just gradually changed. It was summer so he had this tan to his golden brown skin that was flawless, perfect hair just walking around the job looking like the perfect manifestation. I couldn't ignore this g...

The Reality Issue With Chasing L.A. Star Jeremy Copeland (We findout what it's like working w/Mariah Carey)

I’m so excited to be working with you and hearing from you again, you are apart of the family you were one of the first to support the brand. I love all of the longevity you have had in this industry since we last spoke. Now it took me so long because I was trying to find information on the show, but I guess the best person to get that information from is you!!! So I guess my first question is why reality tv, what makes you drawn to it, how much is reality and how much is scripted and manipulated in order to create a storyline… Jeremy:  It feels really good to be re-connecting with you again its been YEARS! I decided to do Reality TV because we were in the middle /close to the end of the pandemic , life was pretty uncertain and I honestly was looking to explore something new. I have done a lot in my career and that was something I had never explored so when the opportunity had presented itself I gave it some thought and I decided to jump on board. I honestly felt like it would be a...

Hmddla x Sneakercon

It takes greatness in order to make your vision be seen by others and valued in the same way that you do. The vision that these two brothers from Louisiana created has taken the industry by storm overnight almost, Jyde and Jackson Manson. They created "Happy Memories Don't Die" from a need they saw while playing highschool and college sports, the athletes stated that having basketball shorts that fit well wasn't just a fashion-statement. These brothers were being dress-coded for rolling their shorts up, because it didn't fit the aesthetic that the school wanted to represent, coincidentally I was having a conversation with a few younger guys who I mentor who were having the same issues while playing ball. However they did make a fashion statement and quite a bold-one at that, all at once it was all over Instagram, from my frat brothers, influencers, to professional athletes.  Everybody was trending in shorts above the knee this summer which kept guys around the glo...

Years before he became ''ATLANTA'S HOTTEST POLITICIAN", councilman Brown was a budding designer who graced the pages of this magazine exactly 6 years ago to the date. With it currently being pride month everywhere we decided to invade our archives for this gem. When we think of high fashion and luxury brands the typical Iconic names come to mind such as Yves Saint Laurent, Versace, and Dior. These have been in the usual fashion-week rotation for decades, with many of these brands focusing on women's fashion until very recently. In a society where men's fashion has been brought to the forefront the market has opened for a slew of new designers, enter Antonio Brown the 28 year old NY born, Houston raised CEO of LVL XII brands. At first glance you can see the Iconic Inspiration of brands such as Giuseppe Zanotti, Christian Louboutin, and even Andriod, however one would be fooled to assume LVL XII is just another Luxury shoe inspired collection. Brown has taken...
