MEET EMILY E. 1 of The Best at RASCAL HOUSE DOWNTOWN CLEVELAND!!!

Okkkk….sooooo…I’ve been reflecting on life lately (*per usual). Life moves so fast, (zooooommm) almost…like “Life” casts a net of 24 hours per day, and many of us get caught up in the swift motion of daily activities. Sometimes it’s easily forgetful to show gratitude, appreciation, or thankfulness for the people, places, foods, transportation, and other “things” that not only simplify, but… make our days bearable.

Living downtown, in a major city (Cleveland) comes with Pros and CONS. (Parking has been and will always be… a bitch.) The atmosphere sometimes depends on the forever changing weather, and if the BROWNS win ( *yeah…sooo…ummmm)…moving forward. (I pointed out the CONS 1st because…who wants to end things on a bad note…not me. ) Other than that, the PROS include …I enjoy downtown living. I constantly feel like Carrie Bradshaw from Sex In The City…, and I’m able to walk to all of my important destinations…especially the lifesaving destinations, places you need in case of emergency. Noooo not the hospital…but RASCAL HOUSE PIZZA….duhhhhhhhhh !!!

RASCAL HOUSE PIZZA is in a perfect location. Squished between the Comfort Inn, and the Beverage store, right across from the CSU campus in the middle of downtown! Now…I’m not saying they have world’s most bestis pizza everrrrr (*you can be the judge and jury on that), but I am saying…they really have their shit together. It’s immaculate inside... at any given time of day. It’s always fully stocked, never any smudges on the window ( unless my toddler attacks them when we dine in…sorry about that), the sodas look like a beautiful rainbow…fully stocked in order, the fresh salads…look super fresh…never wilted… EVER! Not to mention..but I will…each cinnamon bun is strategically placed showing off it’s good angles ( like Mariah Carey)! Good Lord… even the fountain machine is clean …and I have a phobia about general population self-serve thingys. Oh and let’s not forget…the tables are never sticky…like wtfffff… I’m not saying that 1 person can take credit for all of these things ( it’s a team effort…it’s a fully functional TEAM! ) …but I will say…I’ve seen someone do all of these tasks …multiple times…during many sporadic trips on my behalf. I am fascinated by individuals who put forth great effort into jobs that we may overlook on a daily basis. Sooooo when I conveniently went to RASCAL HOUSE recently, I finally decided to meet the hostess, cashier, front lady, do it all…EMILY E.

When I walked inside, there she was…(*per usual) keeping busy, not faking “looking busy” but literally busy. She’s always doing something, to help keep the pizza house looking presentable. That day she was hanging holiday decorations with her manager (who was also pretty nice). EMILY E. looked really cool and professional her new “winter Rascal House sweatshirt uniform”. She has a natural laid-back aesthetic about herself. I can tell she’s probably an eclectic dresser, or owner of a unique personal style outside of work. I came to this conclusion by noticing she always has on a funky pair of earrings. All different kinds! (Ummmmm…do you know how difficult it is to accessorize a uniform while trying to stay within the “rules of dress code conduct” deemed worthy by corporate…sheesh.)

EMILY E. from RASCAL HOUSE does an amazing job running the cash register. Picture…all walks of life …coming in and out daily…and I mean alllllllll kinds of people (*don’t forget I said they are located between the beverage store and Comfort Inn) different cultures, nationalities, language barriers, old, young, people in a “hurry” ( the “businessmen and businesswomen”), the “heavy on the bottle” …the panhandlers…ok ok ok…..you get the pint…hopefully. Yet…EMILY E. is always helpful. She greets each person the same, with the same non-judgmental respect. She has an assertive demeanor about her face and convo…like “take your time…but…let’s keep it moving so everything runs smoothly” kinda vibe.

I knew…EMILY E. was a cool person…worthy of a SPARKPLUGENT interview…when I asked for a slice of what I thought was cheese and jalapenos…and EMILY E. said “oh…ummm those aren’t jalapeños …those are bell peppers”…( *go figure) and I’m like…”they look like jalapenos…”, but instead of being irritated, or kinda giving me the *duhhhhhh…look…EMILY E. took the time to look at the pizza slice in the window…think about my mistake, then replied “I can see that…..VALID”. ( the word “VALID” is such a strong word to affirm that someone or something is correct…and makes someone feel..understood”)

BOOM! Sooooooo I decided to interview her! We meet these workers everyday. They take the time to make sure we get what we pay for, in a great way, while providing pleasurable customer service, manual labor, and all kinds of tasks we don’t even know about, making a moment in time… of our 24 hour day seem…bearable. I had so many questions (*per usual)

Q.How long have you been working at RASCAL HOUSE?

A.1 year

Q.What is your job title?

A.Cashier, and “Team Trainer” (she used quotation marks when saying this)

Q.What’s the most interesting thing you’ve learned about pizza since working here?

A.You have to kinda stab the pizza first or it will bubble.

Q.What’s your passion?

A.Pizza is my passion.

Q.What do you do when you’re not working ?

A.I’m a Sophomore Marketing Major.

Q.What’s your dream job?

A.Marketing

Q.When is the craziest time of year for RASCAL HOUSE?

A.I would say …New Year’s Eve.

Q. How many pairs of earrings do you own?

A.A lot…hmmm..about 50 pairs.

Now….I know …I know…this is probably the shortest interview I’ve ever done, but…that’s exactly why EMILY E. is a vibe!!! Perfectly awkward, she giggled the whole time! EMILY E. was a kinda nervous (understandable…totally), but she went with the flow. It’s difficult for establishments to keep and maintain hardworkers. Soooo when you see the same faces, it makes you… as a customer …feel more comfortable with your purchases. Working in the food service industry isn’t easy (it ain’t for the weak!!!!!) …at all…and to be young, focused, and able to cater your own unique personality while serving the individuality of others should be recognized. Soooooooooo S/O to EMILY E.at RASCAL HOUSE!!!!! XOXO



The EVOLUTION and REVOLUTION of Cheyanne Simone

Okkkkk…soooooo… In a world that stigmatizes and stereotypes a woman who portrays confidence in her sexuality, as “easy”, “stupid", unworthy of relationships…or professional careers , CHEYANNE SIMONE has tackled them all. Everything isn’t always what it seems…mentally, physically, emotionally, or even financially, a lot of time there’s something happening behind the curtain. CHEYANNE SIMONE opens up …with full transparency on her life, her ups and downs…mistakes, regrets (there are few), with a lot of…and I mean, A LOT of ACCOUNTABILTY!!! Yes, you read that correctly…A-C-C-O-U-N-T-A-B-I-L-I-T-Y. (few people are able to use this healing tool…it takes a lot of mental responsibility to do so…headroll fingasnap)

When I first met Cheyanne…she was simply…Cheyanne (No Simone). By chance…or by the destiny powers of the UNIVERSE, I ended up being hired at a job, where she was employed before me. It was my first time ever working in childcare. Yes…. childcare! (S/0 to al the childcare workers …whew…it’s a huge responsibility) Cheyanne was the LEAD infant teacher. (In case you don’t know…infants are the most stressful, you really have to love kids, and be fully trained to work with multiple infants at once) Cheyanne was only 18 at the time, and literally running the infant room. Our “boss” (if you could call Mrs. Pat that…more like a mean old lady) at the time was degrading, we were overworked, and very much underpaid. During our lunchbreaks, Cheyanne would talk about “love", relationships, her mother (RIP)who had fallen ill, friends and foes…yeah…pretty much everything “life related”. We would talk about so many things while she would sit on the floor, feeding, or rocking babies…on her break…while I would mostly listen. (*being older I could only listen and allow her to figure things out on her own…with small bits of advice, that I myself didn’t take when I was her age)

Cheyanne’s mother became ill, and it was super difficult to watch…a young woman, working wayyyyy harder than most women her age, trying to balance the emotions of life, with her mother dying…. whew. After making the decision to leave that energy sucking, low vibrational job, I still continued to stay in touch with Cheyanne sporadically. One day she hit me up, with curiosity about dancing aka “stripping”. I was hesitant on the amount of support I was willing to give her. I looked at her… almost as a younger sister. I also knew the feeling of wanting something more or different, because I too had traveled the same path. I decided to give her the Do’s and Don’ts, and even offered her my custom-made dance outfits I had saved (I’m not sure why I saved them…. but I did, S/o to JUILE). I remember thinking “damnnn she’s really about to take this leap”. Her mother had passed., and I didn’t feel it was my place to question any decisions she was choosing to make.

That’s when I started to notice her evolution of confidence (or what seemed like a spike in confidence…more on that later). I was excited, curious, and fully tuned in! I couldn’t believe …this was the same woman!The evolution of Cheyanne…. was now CHEYANNE SIMONE. She’s always been so beautiful. The darkest skin, smooth like melted chocolate, like the Hersheys syrup used for chocolate milk, no flaws, no enhancements (if that’s your thing …cool), but just a real natural beauty. CHEYANNE SIMONE look is really based around her natural beauty. Her signature long lashes, lip gloss, and long hair are always a part of her aesthetic. Her body…reminds me of the women from the 70’s, just jiggly, bouncy, natural…and her smile…WOW…that girl loves to smile! Some women don’t smile…but her smile makes you smile as well. I began to notice tons of promo for all different clubs around the city, but I also noticed inconsistency with her page, and I began to wonder….” what’s going on”?

That’s when out of nowhere, CHEYANNE SIMONE posted her new job, a LAW FIRM!!!! Well, wtfffffff!!!! I assumed she had quit dancing, but the* BOOM, I saw her post her work promo for the club! That’s when my curiosity about Cheyanne (now CHEYANNE SIMONE) and her now SELF REVOLUTION that was happening!

Q.What initially made you want to start dancing?

A. My mom was sick, there was a lot going on, I was over worked, and underpaid. I wasn’t making enough. I’ve always wondered about dancing; I just needed a lil push. I needed a better source of income.

Q. What were your first thoughts, when you first got hired and were actually working in the strip club?

A.I was like “OMG’, “I SHOULDN’T BE DOING THIS”, I was terrified, I didn’t know how to hustle yet, I didn’t know the hustle, I didn’t know how to approach or talk to people.

Q.Where did you start?

A. I started off at The Alibi (the world’s smallest strip club…yikes), I eventually got the hustle down, and was able to start talking to more customers.

Q. What were some of your fears about working in the strip club?

A. Really, my spending habits, I was making more money but blowing it at the same time, I mos def needed better money saving habits. I also need to get over my fear of pole tricks, I would make more money… if I could conquer the pole…I need to learn pole tricks.

Q. Where did you go after the Alibi?

A.The pandemic hit…it really shut things down for a min, I picked back up at LIDO’s, money was slowing down, and I needed consistent money…so I started applying for jobs as well. Cleveland money is kinda….ehhhhhhhh

Q.How did you land the law firm job?

A. Someone who knew my dad, she suggested I apply and I did and got the job. It’s still kinda…ughhh but I’m thankful to be able to have multiple sources of income.

Q. What was it like having your mother pass away, while you were at the peak of adulthood?

A.When my mom passed away…I just found myself in a downward spiral…spiraling out of control, I had so many emotions, I was dealing with a lot of other things in my life prior to my mom passing. There were multiple tragedies in my life, back-to-back…constantly. I couldn’t catch my breath; I began to act out I guess you can call it.

Q. Acting out…how would you describe “acting out”?

A.I began to drink heavily…my drinking…I mean I can honestly admit that I pushed some of my friends away, a lot of my friends… I destroyed our friendships, from drinking. I became unbearable. I was drinking to cover up my lack of self-confidence. Drinking gave me courage…. or that’s what it felt like…

Q.When did you realize, you needed to change something, yourself, your situation?

A. I was developing a REPUTATION, a misrepresentation about me, given by others. I can admit I was doing things, I was making bad decisions, but I wasn’t doing some of the things that people said I was. There were rumors being spread, and those rumors were interfering with my relationship I had with my boyfriend at the time. He and I were in the same “friend” group, which consisted of mostly guys, “All you need is weed and a bottle”, was a rumor that I found so hurtful, so demeaning, so unnecessary… I think that’s when I realized…I had to save myself, and my reputation, I knew I was not who I needed to be.

Q. How did you bounce back?

A. I had to really realize I was all alone. I had to deal with a lot of past traumas that I wasn’t healed from. I had lost so many friends, and I am holding myself accountable for that, some friends couldn’t stick around, I don’t blame them. There’s 1 friend well…l ex friend…that I’m still like “fuck you” …but being at my lowest really showed me who my real friends are…it really did.

Q,What are some steps you have taken towards your revolution, self-healing?

A.I had to tell myself to ‘GET THE FUCK UP”, Don’t sit and wallow. People make the mistake of sitting around feeling sorry for themselves, just sitting in pity, when in reality, LIFE IS GONNA KEEP MOVING ON. You gotta get back up! You have to hold yourself accountable at times for certain things that happen…. not everything …but be honest with yourself. I am also in therapy. Therapy has helped…people fear therapy…but yeah…Therapy has opened my eyes to certain things I wasn’t dealing with. In the end…nobody can help you BUT YOU! You have to finally decided to help yourself. It’s up to you.

Q.What have you learned about your emotions?

A. I’ve learned that depression can look like a lot of different things. Depression can be disguised as a beautiful woman, who’s well put together, hair done, nails done, maybe even smiling. Even when I would get my mani pedi and be perfect from head to toe, I still was lacking self-confidence. I still was feeling unloved, sad, alone. Those things can’t hide how you’re really feeling inside…it never works. I’ve also learned that …being alone… totally by yourself is hard…if you don’t love yourself. You have to forgive yourself in order to love yourself and also take accountability for life.

Q.When do you feel most beautiful?

A.I’m still trying to figure that out, I thought it was when I had my hair, nails, or makeup done, out having fun…but it’s not. I’m still on my journey of finding self-love, I’m learning how to “date myself” and be ok with being alone with myself. I don’t want to make the same mistakes of dating the wrong people.

Q.When do you feel most accomplished ?

A.Honestly …when my house is clean, sheets are clean, organized…the small accomplishments.

Q. What’s your favorite smell?

A.Vanilla! I love the smell of vanilla, or apple cinnamon, my place smells like apple cinnamon!

EVOLUTION means, the gradual development of something, especially from a simple to a more complex form. REVOLUTION means, a sudden radical or complete change. (*Kinda like a paradigm shift) CHEYANNE SIMONE , the evolution and revolution is an ongoing process, but what makes me soooo supportive of this woman, is that she isn’t afraid to do it in front of everyone. With social media, our mishaps, flaws, or failures… are so easily accessible to any and every one… at any moment. People can easily judge you with a “like” or “dislike”, but being able to overcome that fear of judgment, or being able to take constructive criticism … rebuild, repair and take ACCOUNATABLILTY… is forgiving, and POWERFUL!!!

Trust me…I’ve had my share of “fuck ups”, I think most of us have. (Admit it) as a young woman who’s had to overcome so much, and still isn’t even 30 yet …wtfffffff. Being able to figure out who you are and what you want in life …is an accomplishment, and IT AIN’T EASY .I will always support anyone who’s repairing themselves mentally and emotionally. Respect their paradigm shift. XOXO

(*Sidenote….to all of you reading this…especially you men, please don’t make the mistake of trying to prey on a woman who’s rebuilding herself. A woke woman is a dangerous woman )

“Everyone has a moment , a moment to take your life back, to do something great…when you get that feeling, Don’t ignore it” -CHEYANNE SIMONE

Ahhhhhh "BABY's BREATH" - HOME DECOR

Okkkkk….sooooo lately I’ve been allowing the UNIVERSE to make decisions for me. I know this may sound a little crazy. or “unreliable” to those of you who may only believe in themselves, without giving gratitude or even acknowledging…that there is a super higher power above and around us… that pulls and tugs on our every move! (*whew…I know that was a gigantic runnnnnn on sentence…but that’s how I talk…duhhhh)

Focus Jenn…focus! Okkkkk… like I was trying to explain…I suffer (yes…at times it feels like suffering) from acute OCD…. it’s annoying and the smallest errands give me anxiety, because I constantly overthink EVERYTHING! You would think that picking out fresh flowers would bring me joy, and peace …well at first it does…but then I start seeing so many wonderful bouquets, and that’s where I began to fall apart. Making a decision is insane!

To overcome this tragic habit… I have begun to rely on the energy from the UNIVERSE to help guide me. Today as I reached for a bouquet…my hand began to quiver, and I couldn’t decide! I was standing in the floral department in HEINENS (*S/o to HEINENS …they have a great, healthy floral selection} for 8 mins ( I counted), people were gently pushing around me, quickly making their floral decisions. I took a deep breath, (a baby breath…he he he ) and then suddenly my hand floated over to the BABY’s BREATH!!!!

I’ve always adored this tiny, underrated flower. I would see them in rose bouquets, and often time used as FLOWER FILLERS…kinda like seat fillers at a concert or awards show. I also remember them lasting for an eternity, never wilting… staying as they are, trapped in time like POMPEII (*that’s a wild historical moment).Soooo the UNIVERSE whispered, “grab them”, and that’s what I did.

I’ve been studying the LAWS OF MAAT. The color “white" is symbolic for the MAAT prayers and rituals, so ‘maybe it’s a sign. BABY’S BREATH is so gentle looking, so innocent, so happy…almost like tiny mini clusters of clouds! I am enjoying this vibe, and I encourage you to put a lil RESPECT on the BABY’s BREATH! XOXO







Lil Baby - "UNTRAPPED" Documentary on PRIME

Okkkkk….sooooo…I was thinking…” welp, it’s finally reached this point…the “documentary” point”. Usually, documentaries are released after something tragic has happened, some kinda fiasco, something or someone has been “exposed”, or even … (I hate to say it…but…) death. Sooo when I was feeling financially confident in my budget…I went to my AMAZON PRIME account …ready to BALL OUT…well…more like…buy or rent something new. That’s when I came across “UNTRAPPED”. I initially thought it read “Unwrapped”…and I was ok with that. I enjoyed that show, with the host from Double Dare. (*I forget his name… But tag him in the comments please) The title of this documentary was “UNTRAPPED”, and I saw LIL BABY listed in the cast. My anxiety kicked in fast as hell, and I frantically googled LIL BABY…. just to confirm he was good…and yes…he was and is GREAT!!!!

I was expecting the stereotypical documentary storyline, set drops, and character confirmations from…women from the past and present, old bitter friends who hold 20-year-old grudges, the person who wants to “expose” the “real”, or anyone who isn’t creditable… but still attempts to discredit the main character of the documentary.

Without spoiling “UNTRAPPED” …I will let you know… THIS AIN’T THAT!!!! WHOAAAAA …. from the first 5 mins…the director has already grabbed your attention and RESPECT for LIL BABY. Imagine it only taking a min to solidify your character, personality, integrity…and genuinely earned RESPECT (*if you have any…some of Ya’ll don’t)! Ughhhhhh there’s soooo much I would love to tell you…but I won’t because…this documentary is worth watching.

We all know LIL BABY (not personally, but you know what I mean), and he seems like a chill dude. This documentary focuses more on who he really is aka DOMINIQUE, and how he was and really is about “that life”. Meaning…he’s not a manufactured rapper (like some people we know), he wasn’t created in a lab. He was created from his upbringing, social society setbacks, the streets, and most importantly …the DRIVE…even before music he had a DRIVE. To get it…and I mean GET IT GET IT!!!!




LIL BABY…damn I gotta lil tear in my eye thinking about this man, and how hard he pushed himself. It proves that at some point…if you’re given an opportunity…and I mean a genuine opportunity, that comes with the necessary tools needed to better your life…(*I’m not talking about somebody helping you scam, or a free pack, or anything that’ll get you locked up …duhhh) DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE all have fears, and we usually create our own self-doubts…our subconscious minds, are often our biggest enemies. LIL BABY admitted he didn’t have that self-confidence to rap…he had never done it before…but he used his realistic wisdom, with his struggles…and he learned how to paint a verbal picture and articulate his real life…with words…. he did it …because he wanted to show his kids…they can do anything!

LIL BABY made multiple valid points about life, and parenting. Sharing with us that our kids watch everything we do…and when they see us doing great things, they will often want to imitate them, but when we fuck up…we must be careful, because they will want to imitate that as well. (*which is exactly why I set boundaries to protect my children from certain people , situations, and even from my many past mistakes in life)

There are soooo many moments in “UNTRAPPED” that are full of high vibrations and powerful paradigm shifts …but I think seeing LIL BABY opening up his own bills ,in his own house… was mind blowing to me! This man was ripping those bills open as if he was a “regular man”, with a 9-5!(*I just assumed maybe an assistant did that…but wait til you see him do it.) It’s crazy how everything happens and when it happens…but then again…”PERFECT TIMING”…is a CLASSIC!

Check out “UNTRAPPED” with LIL BABY on AMAZON PRIME!! I promise you , it’ll make you want to really pursue your dreams, or even awaken a new talent you never thought existed! (S/0 to Drew…I hope he goes for it ) XOXO

The NEW BLACK VANGUARD - Cleveland Museum of Art

Okkkkkk…soooooo I’m finally back! I was never really gone.( * “I ain’t gon say that we back from something, Cause that implies that we’re back from something” - DRAKE , I always think of that when I say “I’M BACK” S/o to OVO and Big Sean )…but yeah…(hopefully you understand what I’m saying.) I mean the last few years have been…FUCKING INSANE!!!! The world literally almost came to an end, or soooooo we were made to believe (RIP to everyone who didn’t survive COVID…or…Quarantine …) I would like to blame COVID for my inconsistent passion…towards my passion..aka SPARKPLUGENT, but…I would also like to take ACCOUNTABILITY for certain situations that have happened in my life…like…GIVING BIRTH TO A WHOLE HUMAN DURING THE PANDEMIC (S/o to Galaxy Star XoXo) !!!

FOCUS JENNY POOH!!!! (Okkkkk…I just had to get that rebirth of Sparkplugent intro out of the way…. sheesh) Once I finally felt like the world was “safe’ again to continue enjoying life, I decided to pack up my new baby and head to the CLEVELAND MUSEUM of ART. After being locked away in quarantine, and pregnancy …I needed to refuel my creative art tank, and I will admit…I was super excited to introduce Galaxy Star and her newly formed eyes ( *eyeballs are so weird and intriguing …they remind me of olives…the texture, the pupil, the saltiness…and they are literally the windows of our lives…whew!) to some amazing art , color, and historic cultural vibes aka THE NEW BLACK VANGUARD by Antwaun Sargent!!!!

I’m not even gonna front like I knew exactly who ANTWAUN SARGENT is… but instead of googling him, or lurking on his social media, I decided to try and piece together this curator, (award winning…I learned later) from his own work…and Visual ARTISTIC EXPRESSION *headroll finga snap! (*never be a prisoner of the shit you don’t know)

Walking into THE NEW BLACK VANGUARD…reminded me of Star Trek ( I love that show)…and how they would teleport into a whole other dimension. Those dimensions usually had some kind familiarity with the present…infused with a historical futuristic scheme. There were these huge glass doors that opened up for myself and GALAXY STAR. The doors were so damn clean I didn’t even notice them until it was almost too late. My eyes quickly absorbed the impressive choice in backwall colors. I would like to say “soft pastels” but the again…these colors were a notch up from soft…sooooo maybe “hard pastels”. I’m not sure if these color picks were on purpose, but they worked! On Star Trek…each travel would have a designated color for the backdrop (if you’ve ever noticed). The Lavendar, Blue’s, and various shades of Pink helped make looking at the ART PIECES easy.

Each piece was framed, and there was space between each photograph, art piece, and exhibit. Space between art is important. Space allows you to eat, swallow, digest, and reflect on each piece… without feeling like you’re choking. Sometimes “art shows “seem…clustered, crowded, over stuffed…not all of the time…but every once in a while.Not this exhibit…every moment was served in a nice realistic portion. THE NEW BLACK VANGUARD combines historical literature, art, fashion and technology . It’s like the historical black future of BLACK CULTURE!

Adeline in Barrettes, 2018. Micaiah Carter 1985

After staring and enjoying Adeline in Barrettes…I knew I had to bless GALAXY STAR with hair treasure!!!! As a black woman, especially as a child, having your hair embedded with barrettes…was almost like a passage into GODDESS - ness!!! The feeling of having your crown, carrying treasures is so powerful! Adeline in Barrettes really captured this feeling!

The placement of 3D art is so perfect! Each angle gives you a different visual interpretation. It’s like the art is asking “is the cup half empty, or is the cup half full”? Antwaun Sargent has managed to take us on a global trip around the world, with works of art from all portals of Black Excellence and Black Culture! A time capsule with no lid…containing extraordinary artifacts, needed for future generations!

#MUSICMONDAY EC MARV "Nah Fr" (Official Video)

Okkkkk Sooooo it's #MusicMonday! I must say…EC MARV has hustled hard to make me enjoy, believe, and most importantly RESPECT his music. No longer the "1 lil young ni*ga" outta East Cleveland, EC MARV has quickly pushed past some of CLEVELAND'S musical OG's in solidifying his place in this music industry. With no shortage of drama, relationship issues good/bad (*S/o to Sunni we see you girllllll), internet beef, casual taunting of freniemes, power teasers for new music and visuals, 1 of the originators of the #challenges (*admit it…you've attempted at least 1 #NahFRchallenge ) ohhhhhhh and we can't forget…the face paced bars that seem to almost trip over each other when EC MARV spits….but in a creative, original, mos def takes some talent to be able to ride a beat like that…kinda way. EC MARV seems to understand the way this game goes, and he isn't afraid to get in and play…like…"Nah FR". XOXO
