I’m a writer, journalist, and cultural commentator at the intersection of music, fashion, pop culture, and business.

As a music and hip-hop authority, I’ve profiled artists including Kendrick Lamar, Drake, J. Cole, Ariana Grande, Pharrell, and A$AP Rocky.

My reporting and commentary has appeared in TIME, Rolling Stone, The New York Times, Playboy, Billboard, and Complex. I regularly lend my expertise on-air on CNN, NPR, BBC, The Breakfast Club, and SiriusXM.

I’m the author of Fashion Killa: How Hip-Hop Revolutionized High Fashion (Gallery Books/Simon & Schuster), the critically-acclaimed first anthology on hip-hop and fashion, and the forthcoming The Blueprint: Inside the Business of Roc-A-Fella Records (Simon & Schuster). Pre-order your copy here!

I believe in the power of storytelling and translating what’s happening in culture — and why it matters.
