Gina Gray
Miss Broward County
Social media can go a long way, guys. I’m saying this because that is the reason why this amazing young lady Gina Gray and I have connected. I believe the story of us connecting started with a simple follow and upon a follow, along came curiosity. I am always intrigued by interesting people that strive to do good for not only themselves but others. Miss Broward County is out to change the world and fortunate for us there’s nothing you can do about it! She’s a great example of what our youth should be and Broward definitely needs her!
Who IS Gina Gray?
Welp, in my opinion, she just may be Super Woman reincarnated with a hefty sprinkle of melanin, but here’s what she wanted me to tell you…
<
p style=”text-align:justify;”>1.She was born Gina Marie Gray
2.DOB: 10/20/1993; which makes me older than her
3.She was born in Hialeah
4.Gina is a Hollywood Hills High School graduate
5.Her fav color is Pink apparently
6.She loves to watch stand up comedy and doggies!
7.Gina has two brothers in the military currently
8.Height 5`10″***Single and Ready to Date! 9.(Most Important Fact LOL)… This is what she made me put by the way
THE INTERVIEW
D: What is it you do?
Gina: I am a Financial Representative with Western and Southern Financial Group I was recently crowned Miss Broward County, a local title with the Miss America Organization. This title gives me the opportunity to compete in Miss Florida 2017 which is held the last week of June.
D: What do you aspire to be/do?
Gina: Before competing in the pageant the contestants were asked to create a platform, I chose Juvenile Cancer Awareness and Prevention. I aspire to visit and volunteer at multiple children’s’ hospitals and also create a letter program. This letter program will allow elementary students to send encouraging and thoughtful letters to patients their age that is battling cancer. My goal is for the children and their families to know that we care about them and desire for them to get well and keep fighting. I refer to the patients as my ” Little Warriors” due to all of the emotional strength they possess.
D:Your favorite hobbies?
Gina: I am happy you put an “s” at the end. It would have been tough to only choose one hobby. I am happy you put an “s” at the end. It would have been tough to only choose one hobby. enjoy bowling, swimming, reading, watching movies and TV, especially House Hunters on HGTV, shopping (of course). My newest hobby is volunteering. I have never felt such a joy than looking on the smiling faces of children as I walk up. They scream “She is a princess, she is a queen!” They do this because I am wearing my crown and sash. I love to inspire them and tell a few corny jokes.

D: Biggest accomplishments so far? In my
Gina: In my career, my biggest accomplishment was to achieve a spot in the Medallion Club. This is for the top producers in our company which is in over 45 states. With this accomplishment I was given an all expense paid trip for my father and me to Bermuda. It was beautiful! Winning Miss Broward County is definitely one of my greatest accomplishments. I have learned so many things about myself! Truly my life has changed, even the city where I reside, Lauderhill, has taken part by declaring March 27th of every year “Gina Gray Day“. Stay tuned because we are already planning an annual extravaganza!
D: Biggest inspiration?
Gina: I am inspired by the people. The ones that are lonely, hurt, bitter, abandoned and hopeless. I can not give up because someone out there needs me and it may not be just one person. I was not put on this Earth to just eat, work and sleep. I have a purpose and I am sure it is to share God`s love with everyone that I encounter.
D: What did you want to be when you grow up?
Gina: When I was little I was certain that I would grow up to be a Gospel singer, boy did I pray for God to bless me with a strong anointed voice. I still may pursue that dream.
After being crowned Miss Broward County my entire view of a career changed! It was completely unexpected. I no longer care as much about the amount of money that I am
making. I want this to be my career. Become Miss Florida and subsequently Miss America. If crowned Miss America, I will earn a six-figure salary.
The crowning moment on stage Feb18th2017
D: How do you think/want to change this world?
Gina: I will change this world with my personality and mindset. I am bubbly, cheerful and super friendly yet I am independent, bold and courageous. I believe you do not have to fit into any stereotype. If everyone would accept their imperfections and their talents this world would be a better place. With people working within their gifts, it will cause them to love life again! Less violence and suicides would result from this. But it all begins as an adolescent. This is why I will share my story and inspire the youth by making appearances and volunteering at multiple organizations to teach “Self Love”.
D: Something funny about you?
Gina: Well I am funny, or at least I would like to think so. Umm, you are making me think? What is funny about me? I have small feet? Oh, I like to eat baby food Apple Mango to be
exact! Also I still have my Bratz dolls and refuse to give them away! Oh, I can make dolphin noises! I sprained both of my wrists while trying to do skateboard tricks on a
carpeted floor. I sing Christmas carols ALL YEAR LONG!
D: The biggest struggle you’ve had to overcome in life?
Gina: My biggest struggle was self-love. I was bullied from elementary school until after high school. I was teased about my height, weight, the shape of my nose my awkwardness, the way I spoke, my race, the way I dressed and the list goes on. It was hard to love me when everyone seemed to just hate me for reasons I had no control over. It took years to build my confidence, to be comfortable with who I am and the way I looked. I am extremely grateful I found out the TRUTH! I am beautiful, unique and sometimes still awkward, but that is fine! I learned to LOVE GINA MARIE GRAY!

NOW TRENDING “BC” (Bernard Chestleigh)
BC …
is an artist grown from the suburbs and south side of Chicago. Known for his poetic style and devotion to the knowledge of self BC strives to stay true to who he is. Being a member of the organization Donda’s house, a college grad, and tutor BC work’s to provide the state of who he is in all of his work. After releasing his project Before Conception BC is focused on expanding his audience and perspective. He is inspired by all the things and rhythms in life that go unrecognized, the simple complexity of life that has the magic to hold your focus and make you believe that even through rough or hard times a bright light can be found glistening. His convictions manifest in his work and his devotion to being a creative.
“The role of an artist is to express the connection of all things.”

“BC”…The Chicago Rapper
Better known as Bernard Chestleigh has been a great friend of mine for roughly 8 years now. Since high school, we have been discussing creativity and cracking jokes. More recently in our friendship, Bernard has decided to take more creative artists approach to his lifestyle by becoming a hip hop artists and well-rounded musician. Now, when I first met Bernard years ago my sophomore year at Luther South, he was simply just a singer in the school choir with a funny ass sense of humor and the brain of an AP level student. My how time flies.

Recently…
I got the chance to get together with my good friend Bernard, or as I and many others used to call him in high school ” B’ NAAWD”, insert “LOL” here, and we got the chance to catch up on some good times and talk about his passion for music since a young age. As interesting as the questions may be, I believe his music is even more interesting, but we’ll get to that, for now, here’s what we talked about BELOW.
Processed with VSCO with 2 preset
Processed with VSCO with 5 preset
The Interview
-When did you first realize music was a passion of yours?
B “I have always been passionate about music. I started singing in the choir when I was very young, around 4 or 5 I joined the Sunshine Choir. My parents would always make me sing with my sisters and we would sing at church, or a singing competition or talent shows at school or around town. I would perform Michael Jackson songs or sing a song in church or choir and always get a very positive response. I knew I was really gifted with singing from a very young age but the real question for me as an artist was where would I place my energy because music and art came very naturally to me.”
-Can you explain your style?
B “My style is a definitely hip hop. My music and style is a strive, to be honest, and authentic to my experience. I come from the south side of Chicago so rappers like Lupe Fiasco, Common, and Kanye West are inspirations that have molded my understanding and my approach to making music. I have been influenced by gospel and soul music so that vibe is definitely apparent. Another defining character in my style of music is the poetic flows which are a manifestation of my love for the beauty and healing power of the Word. I am a student of the rap game and a student of life so I am always learning new skills and how to apply them and make them work for me.
-Who are your top 5-10 favorite GOATS?
B “My top 10 GOATS in no particular order has to be Lupe Fiasco, Nas, Tupac, Saul Williams, The Notorious B.I.G. Kendrick Lamar, Joey Bada$$, Lil Wayne, Andre 3000, and Ms. Lauryn Hill”.
Listen To ” CHICAGO” By BC
-How hard or easy has it been breaking into the industry for you?
B “It has been very difficult for me to break into the industry. The main reason why I think it been so difficult for simply is my unfamiliarity with how this industry actually works. There are a lot of ins and outs to the music industry that is still pretty foreign to me. I consider myself to be an artist chiefly, and not really the businessman the system demands”.
-Does where you’re from affect your success with breaking into the industry?
B “Definitely! Chicago is an art Mecca but the city is so segregated that much of the opportunity is found either in the loop or up north. Not saying that there is no opportunities south or west but they are few and far between”.
-How does where you’re from influence your music?
B “My music talks about the hardship of being pushed around by life while maintaining hope in spite of it all. Before Conception is a manifestation of my found resiliency. I grew up in a situation that forced me to move around a lot so I had to learn to adapt to my situation as best as I can. That means I learned how to move in different schools, churches, and friend groups. When I went to college I had 4 and a half years of security and space where I can explore who I really am. This is reflected in my music. The struggle to unify these very different experiences inspired me to be the unifying force I had always been looking for”.
Listen To “Civil Unrest” By BC
-What are you looking to accomplish with music?
B “Simply I want my music to connect with the rebel, and the outcast and those lost in a world seem to have forgotten about them. As long as I can connect and inspire those around me, then I think my job is done. The end goal is to reach a universal style that springs from my soul and manifest in those willing to fan my flames”.
-Who is your music mainly geared to? (audience wise)
B ” My music is geared to more of an awoke audience. I talk about what’s real to me so really, the music is for anyone who can relate. I consider myself a lyricist, so if you’re coming only for the beats and melodies then this music might not be for you”.
-Who’s your favorite musician?
B ” My favorite musician has to be Lauryn Hill. Her integrity and Artistry are unparalleled. The Miseducation of Lauryn was such a beautiful and empowering album. Her later, more modern work has also been a huge inspiration to me as a person and an artist”.
Listen To “ABOVE” By BC
-Where do you draw your inspiration from?
B ” I draw my inspiration from everything around me. I love going for a walk and observing the state of things around me to inspire me to create. Seeing, for example, the hooker on the corner or the boarded up buildings gets me to thinking about creating a poem, a story, a song that can help me to make sense of these sights. To help me express these feeling and provide clarity I watch a lot of YouTube videos from great thinkers like Alan Watts, Cornell West, David Wolf, Noam Chomsky, Terrance McKenna, and James Baldwin to name a few. I also get inspiration from music from all genres but more specifically Hip Hop, Rap, Gospel, Soul, R&B, and Inspirational music of all types.
– What are some of your other hobbies?
B “I love playing video games and reading when I can get the time. I love getting away and traveling when I can. A huge hobby that played a major part in my life was College Forensics, which for those unfamiliar with this activity is a speech and debate team. I was a member of the NIU for 4 years but now, on occasion, I still judge at those competitions and still consider myself a part of that community”.
-So what’s the back story behind YOU?
B ” The story is about a dreamer. Growing up my family who went through many financial hardships but no matter what was taken away from us we knew that we had each. I was a kid whose future hung on an uncertain solution but I learned to push forward. My resilience allowed for me to have success as a performer in college, to graduate from NIU, and for me to join groups like Donda’s House and Louder Than a Bomb which has helped me sharpen my skills as an artist”.
Listen To “CHIRAQ” By BC
– Some of your childhood favorites? (anything; tv shows, movies, food, games etc.)
B “I use to love cartoons and anime! Shows like Dragon Ball Z, Bugs Bunny, Yu Yu Hakusho, Pokemon, the Boondocks, and the Rugrats were always in the mix. As a Big boy, I was always satisfied with any meal that came with that golden jewel we refer to as French fries. I love Tai food too. Some of my favorite movies are the Matrix, Clockwork Orange, and any documentary I can get my hands on. The games that I mastered are Tetris, Madden, and League of Legends”.
*B’ NAWWWD with my favorite chicken ever “Harolds”*
-Some life challenging obstacles you’ve had to overcome.
B “I have come through many different obstacles. One of the more recent stories I’m willing to share is the last semester I was at NIU. At that time, I did not have my own place. So during that time, I slept on my coaches couch the majority of the semester until I could get back on my feet. For this, I am eternally grateful. I am thankful for the helping hands and willing hearts that helped produce what you now see in me BC”.
-Your biggest fans and supporters?
B “My biggest fans are my close friends and family. The groups that have learned to love me as an artist include places I’ve been a part of like from City Year, LTAB, and Donda’s House”.

So Frank has a new song titled “Biking” which features both Jay-Z AND Tyler The Creator! Yeah, I know crazy right? Like? How did you manage to get them two on a…

“DAMN”
DAMN! That’s literally the only word I have for Kendricks newest album titled “Damn”. Technically, this is Kendricks 10th album. Although, since he’s been signed, it’s his 4th. Kendrick is known for his witty lyrics, ever-changing flow and most importantly his verse on Big Sean’s “Control” record. All in all, Kendrick is considered the BEST in the game right now unofficially. His visuals,…

Another one….
Bites the dust as we take a look at the G.O.A.T. known as Kanye West. Kanye has many accomplishments, just as many as the goals he has in life. Although he is constantly slammed in the media two relevant things are constantly happening that makes everything else irrelevant regardless if you like him or not.
He talks ALOT, but he’s always is proven to be right at the end of the topic of discussion EVERY SINGLE TIME (how sway).
no one has really been more right than him…strange.
He has broken a record WITH EVERY ALBUM HE HAS RELEASED. So whether you like his music or not doesn’t matter because the majority of the world actually does.
What Has Kanye Done?
Well, a couple of nights ago he went down in history for becoming the FIRST artist to release an album ONLY electronically and have it go TRIPLE PLATINUM. This is significant for quite a few reasons.
This same album also went down in history for being the most pirated album on the internet EVER.
Kanye went through a mental breakdown over this album and thought he’d sacrificed so much releasing it only digital (he did).
It is now his 8th consecutive platinum (or higher) album.
All stated above will now put him in the music hall of fame possibly with more records broken than Jay-Z (perhaps). The most pirated AND the most sold on the internet says a lot about what people think about you as a person and your music. This is a literal slap in the face to all haters.
I’m going to go ahead and draw conclusions as to why Kanye never released his album in stores and say its because he is just now getting over a mental breakdown which caused some memory loss, Jay-Z beef and a lot of media backlash. In return though, the small and light struggle seems to have benefitted in Kanye’s favor. Hopefully, we will hear from him soon on his recent accomplishments, life, fatherhood health and new music #dopethatGOODalbumthough. In the meantime to keep us occupied enjoy this slide featuring the most popular tweets on Kanye’s recent accomplishment.
